<\/p>\nNow that it’s only two weeks to Halloween it’s time to start thinking about costumes. Have you decided yours yet? A ghost, a movie monster, a zombie, maybe a vampire?

Follow this tutorial and you’ll learn how to turn someone into a scary vampire with Photoshop. Boo!<\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Open up the image you want to vampirize<\/em> and duplicate the original layer.<\/p>\n 2.<\/strong> Select one of the eyes, either using the Marquee<\/em> tool or the Polygonal Lasso<\/em>, and press Ctrl+Shift+J<\/strong> to copy the selection to a new layer. Do the same with the other eye, and you should have something like this.<\/p>\n 3.<\/strong> Apply a Gradient overlay effect to one of the eye layers. I’ve used these settings but you may try a different configuration.<\/p>\n 4.<\/strong> Copy and paste the effect to the other eye layer. Whatever settings you used, you should end up with something similar to this.<\/p>\n 5.<\/strong> Now go the first layer copy (the one you created in the first step) and select a small area on a tooth like the one you see on the screenshot. Press Ctrl+T<\/strong> and adapt it to make it fit the original tooth.<\/p>\n 6.<\/strong> Do the same for the other tooth. You may have to use the Blur tool to make it look even more real.<\/p>\n 7.<\/strong> Now select the Sponge<\/em> tool, make sure the mode is set to “Desaturate” and paint all over the subject’s face, avoiding eyes and mouth. Use the appropriate flow percentage so that you get a pale skin, but not a black and white photograph.<\/p>\n 8.<\/strong> Finally grab the Burn<\/em> tool, select the “Shadows” range and paint over eyes and mouth.<\/p>\n 9.<\/strong> Here’s your vampire!<\/p>\n Now that it’s only two weeks to Halloween it’s time to start thinking about costumes.
