Thanks Rey,
Those were the tips I was requesting in my pm..

Later we can all get jobs working for a plastic surgen doing before and after pics.

Still trying the plastic surgery thing...

Darned lips...

Nice DP. It is starting to look a lot like a painting though. ( a very good method for creating a painting from an image ) Make sure the eyeballs stay round. Look at model pics for reference. Remember, symetrical. If it looks crooked, straighten it. The mouth maybe could be a little smaller. (starting to look like the joker) Her nose is getting a little pointy too. I would also lift her chin a bit. Look at the shape of a models head. (not an actor) a model. By the way. I'm just commenting. I don't even know if I'm making sense. If I'm hurting anyones feelings, let me know and I'll shut up. I don't have a very good gauge for those kinds of things. That's one thing about a models face. When you look at it, nothing stands out. It's easy to look at, nothing catches your attention like a crooked nose, blemishes, lazy eye, etc, etc, anything that catches your eye. If you think about it...Models are boring. No interesting features. Their heads can all fit into the same mold (almost) You know what I mean.......Don't ya I'll shut up now.

version 4

hehe it's the yummy Scarlet J. of course !!!
dont you recognise her ?


I actually spent 30 mins doing the usual kind of fix up...but theres basically no way to glam her up without doing a ridiculous amount of tweakage.


Before I aborted the mission my effort was looking very similar to DP's but I had given her Scarlet J lips and removed the cheek lines and the scar.

really nice

Looks good Serps! ~ smooth....

With Illustrator eyes" couple more edits it will be done"

Pretty nice serps! Mikey, yours is cool too but in an illustration sort of way. Cool image though.

Yours is looking good, DP! You've salvaged the integrity of her face. Alot of you have left the redness in the eye in...that needs to go.

This is a great idea, Rey!

Also, smoothing her hair and an eyebrow "PS wax" would add a lot too.

Now about removing the "model" from the background...w/ all that pesky hair...

LOL, Rey. I was going for that model caught in headlights look. Seriously, I was trying to brighten it up a bit. I liked the look of Claf's first work in his thread and was trying to lean towards that bright (almost washed out) look, probably not successfully... but it was an attempt.

Keep in mind, this is the first time I've attempted something such as this...



I know the hair could use a lot of work, I just don't know how to manipulate hair well.

O.K.
Spent 2 hours on it! Enough for tonight... good night!
Maybe if I have time, I'll fix few things...
