Cenderawasih is Paradise Bird - Digital Watercolor Painting

 

Bird of Paradise is a typical Papuan bird. Especially male birds have beautiful feathers like an angel who came down from heaven (heaven). Cenderawasih is famous for its beautiful fur. Cenderawasih birds are a group of bird species grouped in the Paradisaeidae family. This bird is only found in eastern Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, and eastern Australia.

To create the image above, I used the method  as follows :

1. The source of cenderawasih original image can find here 
2. The used technique is watercolor painting effect using photoshop
3. Image size used 1380 px; 1380 px, resolution 300 ppi
4. Using multi-layer + layer mask (background, cenderawasih)
5. For the background create a watercolor painting effect using the watercolor effect brush tools
6. For the background using 2 layers, the blending mode used is normal mode (opacity 100%) + soft light (opacity 100%)
7. For the cenderawasih using 2 layers, the blending mode used is normal mode (opacity 100%) + pin light (opacity 100%)
8. For each image uses the filter - noise - greyCstoration, after that use the filter - artistic - watercolor
9. Use the watercolor effect brush tools for layer masks
10. Then sharpen each image using the filter - sharpen - smart sharpen
11. The lighting effect is not used
12. Color effects using vibrance (with vibrance 0, and saturation -30)

Please mind, the method used as mentioned above really depends on how your taste and creativity are.
