Transform a normal person into one of the best villains the world of make-believe has ever known. The Joker! Heath "Brokeback" Ledger will play the Joker in the upcoming Batman, but I stick with my favorite Jack Nicholson EVER!
"Hello Gotham, Joker is back!"
Learn how to transform someone to THE JOKER!
-
Step 1 Open up a new image of a random person.
I'm not gonna do Heath Ledger since I don't like him. Instead I chose one hell of an actor, Jack Nicholson!
-
Step 2 Anyhow, what we need to do is make sure we got a good photo of someone. Perferably someone that is already smiling;
-
Step 3 Select roughly the skin of the person and go to the levels by pressing CTRL+L and make sure you get the skin very light;
-
Step 4 Make a new layer and on that new layer, brush white over the skin-area. After that, set the blending-mode to Saturation;
-
Step 5 Erase the white parts where the eyes are;
-
Step 6 Use the Liquify-filter to move the edges of the mouth to the side and a little bit upwards;
-
Step 7 On a new layer brush some red and orange over the eyes and set the blending-mode to overlay;
-
Step 8 With a green brush, brush some green on the hair and set the blending-mode to Color or Overlay;
-
Step 9 Then use the Pen-Tool to draw a shape around the lips and fill that with red. Then lower the opacity a little;
-
Step 10 And there you have it.. Gotham's most feared criminal returns!
