Crea un fondo de escritorio de Wall-E

 

Wall-E es una de las películas mas exitosas de animación de estos días, y es realmente hermosa estéticamente. Si quieres aprender a crear un fondo de escritorio con los dos personajes principales, Wall-E y Eva, puedes pasar por un tutorial de Photoshop Star en donde nos explican claramente como hacerlo.

Lo primero es crear el fondo en si. Pintamos la imagen y aplicamos ciertos efectos que harán que aparezcan las estrellas, retocamos un poco para darle mas realismo y llega la hora de agregar a los simpáticos personajes. Las imágenes las ofrecen en el mismo tutorial, así que las descargamos y agregamos primero a Wall-E con algún efecto para darle esa sensación de brillo que vemos en la imagen. Sumamos a Eva y dibujamos con la herramienta de pluma un camino que pintamos de celeste. Solo nos queda agregar el texto, dibujar el círculo en la “E” y tenemos listo nuestro wallpaper.

¿Quieres hacer tu mismo tu wallpaper al estilo dibujos animados? Ok, entonces este tutorial especial es para ti.

Vamos a hacer una muy agradable noche de estrellas de fondo. Crear un nuevo documento en Photoshop, algo así como 1920 × 1200 px y arrastre una gradiente lineal de colores con # 000000 y # 141b4c.

Crea una o mas layers con Layer > New > Layer y llena este con color negro de fondo. Ok, ahora vamos a tratar de crear unos dibujos animados, las estrellas de noche. Para aplicar este Filters > Noise > Add Noise con una configuración similar a los siguientes:

Despues presione Ctrl+T y alarge el tamaño de la imagen sobre el layer por lo menos 2 veces. Invierta la imagen con Ctrl+I y use Image > Adjustments > Levels :

Con esta forma incrementara el contraste de la imagen que nos dara esta expresion mas limpia de estrellas.

Press Ctrl+I again to invert image back and change the layer mode for this layer to Screen.
Now comes the important part, we need to take off superfluous groups of stars. For this apply Eraser Tool with brush size 50 px and erase away content layer selectively. So, now you’ve got something interesting like that:

Then apply Filter > Sharpen > Sharpen and set up opacity of 35% for this layer.

To make the stars at the bottom of the picture more transparent apply Quick Mask Mode with gradient as below:

Then go back to Standard Mode. Now we have some selected area.

Ok, now time to add a couple of bright stars on the night sky. Create a new layer (Layer > New > Layer) then get out the Brush Tool and using a star brush like as below, dot a few times onto your dark canvas.

Now we have picture as below:

Looks good! The next step what we need to bring pictures of heroes to our wallpaper. Actually, you can use different pictures of heroes of this cartoon. I prefer to use two of those, for example Wall-E & Eva.
If you want to download images of heroes used above, please feel free: Wall-E.png and Eva.png
Well, I would like to bring some luminescence to picture of Wall-E to create a feeling of moonlight. For his effect right-clicking the layer in the layer’s palette then going into the Blending Options. When you’re in the Blending Options, click and apply the following layer styles/settings:

Ok, now time to add the second picture. Bring it to the canvas, then turn and reduce it twice as shown on the picture below. Use Blending Options to add some white glowing. When you’re in the Blending Options, click and apply the following layer styles/settings:

The next step what we need to add some flying trace to our second hero of Eva. Do this by using Pen Tool with color of #4698f9. Look at picture below:

wall-e image 21

Then set up fill of 20% for this layer. Now, head into the Blending Options for this layer, so right-click your layer and go into the Blending Options and apply the following layer styles:

wall-e image 22

After apply Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur with similar settings to these:

wall-e image 23

The flying trace is fantastic:

Well, to make flying trace more interactive we can add some details on it. For this make selection with Elliptical Marquee Tool and fill our selection with color of #4698f9 like on a picture below:

wall-e image 25

Then apply Select > Modify > Contract and contract selection about 3 px, press Del to clear selected area:

wall-e image 26

Apply Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur with the next presets:

wall-e image 27

To get a picture below:

Now, duplicate this circle a couple of times to get the next electric flying trace:

wall-e image 29

Ok, now we need to put our robot into the circles. For this effect select the robot (Select > Load Selection) and cut away fore-part of circles with Eraser Tool like on picture below:

wall-e image 30

Press Ctrl+D to deselect area and apply Quick Mask Mode with gradient as below for all two layers of flying trace:

wall-e image 31

Then go back to Standard Mode. Now we have some selected area.

wall-e image 32

Press Del to clear images into the area on the layers and press Ctrl+D to deselect area. Then go to the layer with electric circles and head into the Blending Options for this layer, so right-click your layer and go into the Blending Options and apply the following layer styles:

wall-e image 33

Ok, to finish our wallpaper let’s add some text. Get out the horizontal Type Tool (just the regular one) and write out something like ‘Wall E’ in the upper left corner:

To add little white and big red (#dc0028) circles use Ellipse Tool as below:
