Operation steps:
1. Cut out the characters
Open the character material, use your familiar method to cut out the character, and copy it to a new layer. Open the wall material again, use the move tool to drag the cut character in, and place it in the middle, as shown below.
2. Copy the person you want to hide
Select the pen tool in the toolbox and outline the outline of the character that needs to be hidden. I selected the man. Press Ctrl + Enter to convert the path to a selection. Press Ctrl + J to copy it to a new layer.
3. Copy the men’s layer
Press Ctrl + J to duplicate the man’s layer, then create a new layer below the man’s copy and fill it with black with the paint bucket tool, as shown below.
4. Remove color and blur
Select the man’s copy layer, press Ctrl + Shift + U to desaturate it, then choose the menu: Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur, set the Radius to 5, and then OK.
5. Save the file
Press Ctrl + S to save the file, select an easy-to-find folder, and name it “Replace.” , will be used later.
6. Hide layer
Hide both the decolored character copy and the black layer, as shown below. Remember that you do not need to save the file for subsequent operations. If you want to save, you must save a separate file, otherwise the final effect will be affected later.
7. Copy the wall layer
Duplicate the wall layer, move it above the man layer, and press Ctrl + Alt + G to create a clipping mask http://www.16xx8.com/tags/38847/, As shown below.
8. Execute replacement filter
Select the menu: Filter > Distort > Displace, with default parameters. After confirmation, a file selection window will pop up. Just select the previously saved “Replace” file. The effect is as shown below.
9. Copy the men’s layer
Duplicate the man layer and move it above the wall layer. Press Ctrl + Alt + G to create a clipping mask. Press Ctrl + M to lighten the dark parts appropriately. Press Ctrl + Shift + U to remove the color. Then Change the blending mode to “Multiply” and the process is as shown below.
10. Add character details
Press Ctrl + J to copy the current character layer and change the blending mode to “Soft Light”. The effect is as shown below.
11. Brighten appropriately
Create a Curves adjustment layer and greatly brighten the RGB channel. Set the parameters as shown below. After confirming, create a clipping mask, and then use a soft-edged black brush to paint out the areas of the head that do not need to be brightened.
12. Add more details
Duplicate the man’s layer, move it to the top, press Ctrl + Shift + U to remove the color, and change the blending mode to “Soft Light”. The effect is as shown below.
13. Partial brightening
Create a Curves adjustment layer and brighten the RGB channel. The parameters are as shown below. After confirming, create a clipping mask, fill the mask with black, and use a soft-edged white brush to paint out the areas that need to be brightened. The process is as shown below.
14. The last step
Observe the overall effect. If there are any unnatural or unsatisfactory parts, make appropriate adjustments to complete the final effect.
