Okay so 3 episodes of Secret Circle have came to past and I have to say that I really love the show. I have not read the book. But I just thought to make some Avatars using the screen caps from the Pilot Episode. So yeah here is my first coloring on The Secret Circle Caps Pilot Episode.
I downloaded these caps from RAWR-Caps on live journal so I dont own them but the colorings I own 100%.
And with that enjoy. Also I will be writing in caps from now on.
LET’S GET STARTED.
STEP 1: OPEN YOUR CAP OF THE SECRET CIRCLE.
(FACT! I DONT KNOW IF THIS WILL WORK ON OTHER CAPS FROM DIFFERENT SHOWS.)
(FACT: IT ALSO ONLY WORKS REALLY WELL WITH EP:1 OF THE SECRET CIRCLE.
I WILL BE USING THIS CAP OF MELISSA FROM THE PILOT EPISODE.
(HERE ARE THE ORIGINAL AND THE EDITED COLORING VERSION.

STEP2: DUPLICATE YOUR BASE/ORIGINAL LAYER 2 TIMES.
SET THE FIRST ONE WHICH IS Background copy TO HARD LIGHT @100% OPACITY & SET THE SECOND ONE WHICH IS Background copy 2TO SCREEN ALSO @100% OPACITY.
STEP3: NOW WE WILL BE ADDING ADJUSTMENT LAYERS. SO FIRST UP IS A COLOR BALANCE LAYER
MIDTONES : +13 -9 -25
SHADOWS: +2 -4 +5
HIGHLIGHTS: -16 -4 +8
STEP4: NOW ADD ANOTHER ADJUSTMENT LAYER THIS TIME IT’S A SELECTIVE COLORING LAYER
REDS: -11 +9 +100 +4
YELLOWS: -1 0 -8 -10
WHITES: -10 -3 -9 -4
NEUTRALS: -4 0 -4 -2
BLACKS: -9 -7 +8 -1
STEP5: NOW WE ARE GOING TO ADD ANOTHER SELECTIVE COLORING LAYER JUST TO GIVE THE
CAP MORE REDISH COLORING MORE NATURAL.
REDS: -9 +11 -19 -4
YELLOWS: +11 +6 -2 +6
STEP6: ANOTHER ADJUSTMENT LAYER THIS TIME IT’S CHANNEL MIXER.
THIS IS TO GIVE THE IMAGE MORE COLORING.
RED: +96 +4 +9 +2
GREEN: +9 +89 +5 0
BLUE: +5 -9 +107 0
STEP7: NOW WE ARE GOING TO DUPLICATE THE BASE LAYER AGAIN DRAG IT TO THE TOP OF ALL THE COLORING LAYERS AND SET IT TO LINER DODGE NOW SET THIS LAYER TO 55% OPACITY.
STEP8: NOW WE ARE GOING TO ADD ANOTHER ADJUSTMENT LAYER THIS TIME IT’S A HUE/SATURATION LAYER
SATURATION: +22
LIGHTNESS: +8
THIS WILL GIVE YOUR CAP MORE COLORING AND A LIGHT WHITE OVER MASK WHICH IS GOOD.
STEP9: WE ARE GOING TO DUPLICATE THE BASE LAYER FOR THE LAST TIME AND WE WILL BE GIVING IT A HIGH PASS FILTER.
TO DO THAT WE WILL GO TO FILTER>OTHER>HIGH PASS NOW SET YOUR RADIUS TO 10.0 AND HIT OK.NOW SET THIS LAYER TO SOFT LIGHT IT WILL GIVE YOUR IMAGE A SHARPEN LOOK.
NOW IF YOU LIKE WHAT YOU HAVE SO FAR YOU CAN STOP THIS FINAL 2 STEPS ARE JUST FOR ADDED EFFECT AND
ARE NOT NECESSARY.
STEP10: ADD A GRADIENT BLACK/WHITE RADIAL MAKE SURE THE WHITE IS IN THE MIDDLE AND BLACK IS ONTHE OUTSIDE SET THIS TO OVERLAY @50%
STEP11: NOW FOR THE FINAL ADD A PHOTO FILTER LAYER SELECT UNDERWATER LEAVE IT AS IT IS,
STEP12: MERGE YOUR LAYER OR FLATTEN AND SHARPEN AND YOUR DONE.
I HOPE YOU LIKE AND HAPPY EDITING,
I WOULD ALSO LOVE TO SEE YOUR RESULTS.
