Done a bit of Research home to make 3-D imaging, not sure if it will work with my illustrations but thats the whole point of experimentation. Here is how to do it with photos:
Take a Photograph and save it twice labelling one Left and one Right. Open the left photo in Photoshop, then from the color selector, select color #00FFFF, The equivalent of this in RGB is R-000 G-255 B-255.(This is also called cyan).
Create a layer above the left photo and fill it with this color.
Duplicate this layer and go to Image > Adjust > Invert. This will change the color of this duplicate cyan layer to a red color (direct opposite). In RGB the color created will be R-255 G-000 B-000.
Open the right photo and copy it, close it and in the left photo (the one to which you added the colored layers), paste it below the red layer.
Now position the 4 layers as follows: The bottom is your right photo. Above it is the red layer. Above it is the left photo and above this is the cyan layer.
If you wish to check the alignment of the two photo pairs you can turn off red and cyan layers and adjust the opacity of the left photo to 50%. Make sure both photos are on the same vertical plane and shift up/down appropriately. When finished change the opacity of the left photo back to 100%.
Turn on the cyan layer and change the transfer mode to screen.
Merge the cyan and left photo layers together. You should now see a very abstract cyan tinted image that will be hard to distinguish in areas.
Turn off this new cyan layer.
Turn the red and right photo layers back on and change the red transfer mode to screen. (Note: You don't need to merge these two if you don't want to.) Again you'll see an abstract red image similar to the cyan before.
Turn on the new merged cyan/left photo layer and change the transfer mode to multiply. Put on glasses (red on left, cyan on right) and you should now see the anaglyph.
Create a layer above the left photo and fill it with this color.
Duplicate this layer and go to Image > Adjust > Invert. This will change the color of this duplicate cyan layer to a red color (direct opposite). In RGB the color created will be R-255 G-000 B-000.
Open the right photo and copy it, close it and in the left photo (the one to which you added the colored layers), paste it below the red layer.
Now position the 4 layers as follows: The bottom is your right photo. Above it is the red layer. Above it is the left photo and above this is the cyan layer.
If you wish to check the alignment of the two photo pairs you can turn off red and cyan layers and adjust the opacity of the left photo to 50%. Make sure both photos are on the same vertical plane and shift up/down appropriately. When finished change the opacity of the left photo back to 100%.
Turn on the cyan layer and change the transfer mode to screen.
Merge the cyan and left photo layers together. You should now see a very abstract cyan tinted image that will be hard to distinguish in areas.
Turn off this new cyan layer.
Turn the red and right photo layers back on and change the red transfer mode to screen. (Note: You don't need to merge these two if you don't want to.) Again you'll see an abstract red image similar to the cyan before.
Turn on the new merged cyan/left photo layer and change the transfer mode to multiply. Put on glasses (red on left, cyan on right) and you should now see the anaglyph.
Here is my first attempt at making a 3D image
