So yeah, like what the title indicates, this is basically done by masking layer upon layer upon layer. But it still looks cool I guess?? Idk, I like it.
i. Open your photo of your person in Superimpose. Next, open another photo of yours or one of the following photos in the end of this chapter as the foreground.
ii. I usually set most of mine on screen, but play around with it. Different layer masks means different styles, which makes it unique. Move the image around how you like (I usually erase some around their face with the soft brush) and then merge. Repeat this process until you are satisfied.
So yeah, pretty easy. My advice to you is to not make it super duper ridiculous; like don't over do it. When it looks done, stop. Also, go find some other textures other than these below. There are tons out there and if you need help finding any, go to the Simple Tips chapter at the beginning of this book and look at the multiple Instagram accounts. That's where I found these below, along at Deviantart.com
