HELLO EVERYONE! IT'S BEEN A WHILE. FOR THIS CHAPTER, I'VE BEEN THIKING OF GIVING YAL A TUTORIAL FOR B&W POSTERS. IT'S THE EASIEST AND SOMETIMES HARDEST TO MAKE COZ IT NEEDS A LOT OF BALANCING IN THE LAYERS AND BLA BLA BLA... WELL, LET'S GET STARTED!

FIRST, AS ALWAYS, GET A CANVAS.

THEN, CHOOSE YOUR CHARACTERS.

YOU CAN IMMEDIATELY DRAG THEM TO THE BACKGROUND.

YOU WILL SEE THIS AFTER DRAGGING THE IMAGE INTO YOUR BACKGOUND.

YOU MUST ALWAYS REMEMBER TO CONVERT THE LAYER, OR ELSE YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO EDIT THE IMAGE. THERE: IN THE OPTION: CONVERT TO SMART OBJECT.

AND REMEMBER WELL, WHENEVER YOU'RE RESIZING THE IMAGE, MAKE SURE THE RATIO IS THERE. TO MAKE IT MAINTAINED, CLICK ON THE MAINTAIN ASPECT RATIO BUTTON SO YOUR CHARACTER WON'T LOOK SQUEEZED OF SQUASHED.

THEN, ALWAYS REMEMBER TO CLICK ON THE  BUTTON TO COMPLETE THE PROCESS.

AFTER THAT, ADD LAYER MASK FOR ALL YOUR CHARACTER IMAGES. THIS WILL MAKE THE BLENDING PROCESS EASIER AND YOU WON'T HAVE TO ERASE ANYTHING FROM THE ORIGINAL IMAGE.

MAKE SURE YOU'VE CLICKED ON THE LAYER MASK BEFORE BLENDING. A BLACK BRUSH MAKES THE SECTION YOU'RE PAINTING INVISIBLE, A WHITE BRUSH MAKES THE SECTION VISIBLE. REMEMBER THAT!
