› › HOW TO

Step Six: Duplicate the layer

again, change the color to mint

green (#44d09d), and leave

the blending mode set to Color

and the Opacity at 5%.

Step Seven: Duplicate the

layer one last time, change the

color to grayish blue (#6e8598),

and leave the blending mode

set to Color and the Opacity

at 5%.

Step Eight: With the top fill

layer active, Shift-click on the

original fill layer to select all

the Skin Reflection layers, and

press Command-G (PC: Ctrl-

G) to group them. Rename

the group (“Skin Reflec-

tion” in this example) and

then make sure it’s inside the

group that you used to color-

ize the skin of the main subject

(“Skin” here). For this image,

we reduced the group Opac-

ity to 75%; otherwise, it won’t

appear as a realistic reflection.

HAIR REFLECTIONS ON

THE GRAND PIANO LID

We’re going to use three Solid

Color fill layers to colorize the

reflection of the hair on the

piano lid.

Step One: Add your first Solid

Color fill layer, set it to a light

yellow (#e5daba), and rename

it “Hair Reflection Piano.” Invert

the mask to black and then

paint in white where the hair

is reflected on the lid. Change

the blending mode from Nor-

mal to Color and reduce the

Opacity to 65%.
