Each of the tutorials below shows you how to make a different style of typography portrait. Each is about the same amount of work and takes roughly the same amount of time to complete. After you read the requirements below, pick the one that has the style of finished result you like best.
For the starting photograph, you have two options:
- Find a free public-domain photo at a site like Morguefile.com here or here -- or --
- We can take a new close-up photo of you.
Whichever you do, the photo must be a close-up of a human face, must have good lighting and contrast, and should be big enough that it is easy to work with. (On Morguefile, click the "download" option to get the hi-res file.) You may not use the same starting photo as the tutorial.
If the tutorial says to download brushes or fonts, don't - just use fonts or brushes that are close in appearance.
