Photoshop Challenge 3!

Digital Makeover.

I posted this in another challange, but I think it would be fun for all of us to do.

Give the lovely lady digital makeup. This can include, but is not limited to:

Hair Color, Highlights
Smoothing the skin
Face Paint
eye Shadow, blush, lipstick color....or anything like that.
Eye Color
Color of clothing

list goes on!

Heres the pic...Do your best!

 

[I don't believe it]

Terribly difficult challenge this one, because so much is against us! it's a very small picture, with a fair amount of noise, and jpg artifacts never help!

BUT!... here's my offering, a total reworking of the original, the model was extracted using the extract tool (much better results would be achieved on larger images of course, but we've only got what we have to work with).

New background created and a few lighting effects to bring the two together.

To soften the models skin for that 'glamour' look is quite easy, just duplicate the layer, set this opacity to about 10% and give a fair amount of guassian blur to it, then use the eraser tool to rub away any parts that don't need softening, very quick to do!

That's how I learned as well... just sitting in front of the program and playing with the features.

But I think I still need a few lessons when it comes to doing stuff like applying makeup. Both of you have done a really good job.

Keep working at it! Search google for tutorials and do 2 or 3 different ones a day. Youll get better in no time.
