We were given the original image, so let's use it. :D Copy the original image onto the canvas and set it to Luminosity 100%. |

You'll notice that the icon and the banner dont flow "smoothly" together. Duplicate the screencap layer. Image>Adjustments>Desaturate the image and set it to Screen 100%. |

Duplicate the desaturated layer and set it to Soft light 100%. |

Next, take the original/colored screencap, duplicate and bring the layter above the "soft light" layer. Using a blurry round brush, erase everything except Alice. Set the layer to Screen 27%. |

Ontop of the icon you'll notice a black area. Make a new layer. Using a polygonal lasso tool, continue the diagonal line so that it matches with the icon. Make a box and fill in the box with #000000. |

New layer on screen 100%. Use #853260 and a blurred circle brush to finish the pink cicle on the side of the icon. |
