How Do I Add Angel Wings in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 1:33 am

Adding angel wings in Photoshop is a fairly simple process that can be achieved with the help of some basic Photoshop tools. In this tutorial, we will show you how to add angel wings to a photo using Photoshop.

First, open the photo that you want to add wings to in Photoshop. Then, create a new layer by clicking on the “Create a new layer” icon at the bottom of the Layers panel.

Next, use the Pen tool to draw the outline of the wings on the new layer. To do this, click on the Pen tool in the Toolbox and then click and drag to draw the wing shape. Make sure to hold down the Shift key as you do this so that the wing shape is symmetrical.

Once you have drawn the wing shape, fill it in with a white color by going to Edit > Fill > White. Then, go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur and apply a slight blur to the wing shape.

Now, we need to add some feathers to the wing. To do this, create another new layer and use the Pen tool to draw some feather shapes on this layer. Again, fill these shapes in with white and apply a slight Gaussian Blur filter.

Next, we want to give our angel wings some color. To do this, go to Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and increase the saturation until you are happy with the color of your wings. You can also experiment with different colors by changing the Hue value.

Finally, we need to add some shadows to our angel wings so they look more realistic. To do this, create yet another new layer and use a black brush set to a low opacity (around 20%) to paint some shadows around the edges of the wings.

And that’s it!

By following these simple steps, you can easily add angel wings to any photo using Photoshop.
