Create posters in the style of the Punisher: the cinematic look in Photoshop

This video gives you an insight into how Gabor starts his shoots. Communication with the model plays a major role in creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

Before the actual photo shoot starts, Gabor Richter first sets up the flashes. He explains the individual effects of the light shapers and why he chose them.

Authentic styling for a rough subject doesn't have to be expensive. In this video, Gabor will show you the home remedies he uses to make the character more dramatic for the subject.

Once the theme for the motif has been discussed with the model, the light has been set up and tested and the styling has been done, it's time for the actual shoot. You can see Gabor creating the final image for this artwork.

Unknowingly, the follow-up conversation with the model and Gabor was filmed. Gabor explains why he doesn't take so many pictures, but also gives a tip for the rough image view of the motifs on a laptop on location.

The final image from the photoshoot ends up directly in Gabor's Photoshop Camera Raw. Here he shows his image development, which is necessary so that the next steps in Photoshop match the main motif.

Gabor will make a few small corrections using the liquefy filter in Photoshop. The aim of this step is to make the shoulders wider so that there is more space on the T-shirt to add a print later.

There are many ways to create details and micro-contrasts in Photoshop or even with an external program. Gabor uses his beloved Color Efex program for this step.

To create a really clean and sharp-edged clipping, Gabor will use the pencil tool to separate the model from the background.

Separating hair from the background can be very tedious with the pen tool. Therefore, Gabor uses a different and simpler method to improve an existing mask of the clipping tool.

The old background has disappeared. Now a new background is to be placed in the scene. Gabor uses a location he has photographed. You can find out what he pays attention to when placing and scaling in this movie.

There are many ways to create a deep and dark night atmosphere. Gabor will show you a very simple and quick variant to conjure up the character in a dark alley.

Regardless of unusual brushes or stock images, Gabor will bring a subtle foggy atmosphere into the motif. He will use a special filter to bring a few clouds of mist into the picture.

In this part, Gabor shows you how to create your own design on a blank T-shirt. Watch as Gabor explains a quick way to create your own graphics and how to print them onto the shirt afterwards.

To create a darker and more vivid scene, a few corrections need to be made to the brightness. Working with the dodge-and-burn method plays a role here, as does simply darkening with an adjustment layer.

To make the effect of the grazing lights more exciting, Gabor will change the lights in a targeted way with a gradient implementation. The lights are also colored in a very striking way to create a gloomy night scene.

To ensure that the background fits into the overall scene, Gabor will deliberately change the color. Furthermore, light sources are inserted into the motif in order to combine them with the grazing light on the person.

With a few small changes, the motif will blend together more and thus become more of a unit. The Camera Raw filter is used to fine-tune the artwork.

To give the whole thing a typical movie poster style, Gabor will spice up the motif with a few fonts. He will show you where he can get free fonts on the Internet and how he then applies them in Photoshop.
