Colour and Atmosphere Tutorial

The finished piece is here: [link]

you need to at least know your basic way around PS to fully understand this. I didn't bother to include how to practically execute all the settings, but feel free to ask me about it nonetheless!

The subject matter was originally supposed to be Nick from L4D2, but I changed it the last minute because that picture involves a background and I really want to get this silly thing over and done with lololoolololl sorry Nick. So have Bumi instead who is just as awesome.

So uh, I recently promised a tutorial and here it is! Yeah, freaking nerve-wrecking and I swear if this gets a DD like my last tutorial I'm going to make whoever's responsible into shoes. Alright I'm in a hurry to sleep and then head off to the land of the eagles dripping with freedom for 2 days, so I'll be back by Monday.

I guess this tutorial is aimed for anyone that isn't an advanced...PS/colour theory artist or whatever for there ain't much fancy stuff going in there, just really straightforward skills I've learned and just...feel like sharing I guess.

So yeah, I know that I didn't really show how I actually colour LOOOOL uh sorry about that, I'll do one some time later.

Anyways I honestly do not know what I'm talking about anymore because I am tired brainwrcked rofl

Feel free to leave questions and I'll try to answer them huff
