Tuorial Time!  
Hello guys, Well  a lot of people asked
me  a tutorial  for the color  in my icons  and so here 
your tutorial !  Happy? ^___^ I hope you understand something XD 'cause I'm
italian and my english isn't good  sorry .____.

From this -> To This

For Photoshop 7 and above.



Step 1.Crop your image ( 100x100)


Step 2. Duplicate it for 3 times(it depends how much darken is your image) and set all ' screen' (100% opacity) and sharpen once(or twice ) the top


Step 3. Pick the 'Smudge tool' and pass it over the image ( The top one)


Step 4.Make a new layer and fill it witha dark blue ( Like this#021c36)and set it to 'Exclusion' ( 100% opacity)


Step 5. New layer again and fill with a sky-blue(like this #aec6de) and set it to ' Color burn' (100% opacity)


Step 6. New layer again and fill it with a bright-brown (Like this #efe0c6) set it to ' Color burn' (100% opacity)


Step 7. Another new layer and fill it with a quite white color ( like this #fcf8f0) set it to ' Soft light' (40% opacity)


Step 8. Then return to  your image layer the one that you have under 'dark blue layer ' and then go on to ' Image' -> 'Adjustments'
-> ' Color balance'  ( red +34) ( magenta - 68) ( yellow -90)



And.. YOU MADE IT!


Other example with the same technique



Some advice : ( You need to play with the color layers  and with the '
Color balance' )
