What tool is being used in this video (warning may be slightly nsfw for some people) to reshape the woman's body?

Is that Liquify? Warp? It goes so fast, and the resolution of the video is so bad, that I can't tell. Confused

That's the Liquify Tool (pucker) and they sped up the video to cut down on size. It looks like the girl is on a separate layer as well.

pretty much all of it is done with the liquify filter (i would actually say most of it was done with the forward warp tool, much less erratic effect)

I spotted some cloning aswell though

no doubt, 100% liquify, and as Steve says, the girl could beon a separate layer with the background already repaired. Too hard to tell at that resolution though.

Hey, looks a bit like Gillian Anderson Laughing

Thanks for the answers! Very Happy

Soooooo does anyone want to give a tut on how to do stuff like this? Not necessarily that same subject type but something similar? Like turning a tree into a twig? Or an apple into a pear? Something that shows how to use the liquify tool like that? Smile

I've been using the warp tool more than the liquify tool lately.

Don't forget my rubbish tutorial Wink

http://photoshopcontest.com/tutorials/25/the-liquify-filter.html

well it EXPLAINS it i guess but not much else Smile

edit: infact here's the useful bit

the key to all of this stuff is practicing!


the liquify filter tools


warp tool (w) or the forward warp tool (w) depends on the version of photoshop
much like the smudge tool, although tends not to lose sharpness or details. all together more accurate.

turbulence tool (a)
acts a bit like a brush jitter. great for distortion but thats about it. as far as im concerned not so usefull.

twirl clockwise tool (r)
acts like the distort>twirl filter only in brush form if that makes sense. if it doesn't dont worry it's pretty self explanitry.

twirl counter clockwise tool (l)
i would hope this is self explanitry

pucker tool (p)
works as a brush retracting pixels from the edge (i think i can say that) the basic effect of which it that you can shrink areas.

bloat tool (b)
works the opposite effect of the pucker tool and enlarges area. its works partly like the distort>spherise filter (i think thats what it's called, its too late at night)

shift pixels tool (s)
works like the warp tool apart from it tends to shift whole blocks of pixels in a certain way instead of the center. takes practise and patience of which i have neither.

reflection tool (m)
the only use i found for this is creating refraction in glass, but it only works in some situations and its hell to get right

reconstruct tool (e)
surprisingly usefull. reconstructs parts which you have just 'liquified'. main uses are getting back wrongfully changed parts while not reconstructing the WHOLE image. you'll know what i mean when you use it.

masks- freeze tool (f)
it stops the tools having any effect on cerain areas of the picture- define these areas with this brush (represented by red)

masks- thaw tool (t)
it removes parts of the 'masking' you just put on with the freeze tool
