Jump Paint Tutorial

Are you ready to add a touch of creativity to your portraits? Look no further than this step-by-step jump paint tutorial. Using Adobe Photoshop, we'll show you how to create realistic face paint masks using Adjustment Layers, Channels, and a free custom brush.

To get started, open your image in Photoshop and create a new Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer by going to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Hue/Saturation. This layer will allow us to adjust the color of our face paint.

Next, select the Brush Tool and load the custom face paint brush that we'll be using throughout this tutorial. You can download the brush from our website above.

Once you have your brush loaded, start painting with white on the Layer Mask of the Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer. This will give us a base layer to work with.

Now it's time to adjust the color of our face paint. Select the Brush Tool and load the custom brush again. Invert the Layer Mask of the Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layer, making it completely invisible. This will allow us to create a realistic paint effect.

To add color to your face painting effect, we recommend starting with a base layer using light colors. You can adjust the hue, saturation, and lightness sliders until the skin matches the 'paint' color you want.

The main tools we'll be using in this tutorial are Hue/Saturation Adjustment Layers and the Brush Tool with our custom brush. With these two tools, you'll be able to create realistic face paint masks that will add a touch of creativity to any portrait.

In addition to adjusting the color of your face paint, you can also change the texture by using different brushes or layer styles. The possibilities are endless!

So why not give it a try? Follow along with this tutorial and see how easy it is to add realistic face paint masks to your portraits. With a little practice, you'll be creating stunning images in no time.

And remember, our custom brush is yours to keep and use forever! Simply download the brush from our website above and start creating. Happy painting!
