smoothing skin using photoshop

BEFORE!

AFTER!

Many models in magazines and in photographs on the internet are normally Photoshopped to make the celebrity look better, this means the image is very manipulating. Today i took it upon myself to do the same to an unknown model i found on the internet. This just shows that you can never trust an image unless you have taken it yourself.

To do this i inserted the original photo i found off the internet onto Photoshop, i then used the spot healing brush to get rid of all the freckles and spots. After i did that i then inserted a new layer and blurred out the image, and used the paint tool to get rid of the parts what were too blurry so it isn't as obvious it has been edited.

using illustrator to create a portrate

To create this picture, i used adobe illustrator, i took a picture of myself on photo booth and inserted it onto adobe illustrator to create a cartoon like image of myself. i then used the pen tool to join lines up to get a rough shape of my face. I then created another layer to go round the outline of my lips, and the rest of my facial features. I had to pick various different colours to match my skin tone and eyes, lips etc . I also tried to fill in my t-shirt by doing it with adobe illustrator to make it all look cartoon like.
