I'm a newbie at Paint Shop Pro 9 image editing, and just tried to make an image of a guitar emerging from the water. But I don't think it looks realistic. So I would like some advice on how to make it look like a real picture, and also, how to make it look like the guitar is emerging, and not going down. I thought maybe adding some drops of water, which I don't know how to create...
Click to see image I'll appreciate any helpful advice you can give me. |

So far, it looks pretty good. For this kind of thing, I recommend just messing with a bunch of stock photos. Stock.xchng is my favorite. Maybe try looking for a picture of a splash and add it around the guitar. You can find drops of water on there too.
Also, I'm not sure how it would look, but you could try adding the shadow of the guitar. It looks like you have most of the basic PSP skills down, so I'm not going to bother explaining exactly how to do that. If you do need help with it, though, I'll explain. |
