Creating a Space-Helmeted Future Retro Illustration
Create a new document 154.5mm by 216mm in size at 300dpi. Then open the Helmet image, cut it out using the Pen Tool (set to Paths not Shape Layers), and paste it into your blank document. Resize to about 83%.
Go to Image > Adjustments > Desaturate to strip out the color. Then select the Burn Tool, set it to Highlights with an Exposure of around 10%. Use a big soft-edged brush to burn in a little shadow on the left of the “HELMET” layer.
