Holy crap huh.gif
you made her look good, but not like herself at all.
but maybe thats a good thing XD.gif
Her skin looks a little weird, and her head looks too small for her body. but who am i to criticize, lol.

edit- maybe leave some of those chin sagging things, it looks a bit un-natural without them.

It's not bad but I noticed that the after, I realized she had a huge smile. Since the smile lines are gone, it looks like her chin is huge when she smiles.

Also, another note I notice is that on her chest, like on the right. I see the visible circles, and on the Before, they were freckles. It's best if you would blend them into the skin since it's funny noticing 2 circles.

Her "original" nose is actually after her nosejob lol.

I agree about the chin. Her nose looks pinched. Gotta love her perfume ads, it's like they used a wand.

I hate to say it, but you chose an awful, unflattering picture of Sarah Jessica to retouch. You did a good job, but you did not make her look good. Next time, maybe you should try a better starting picture.

It looks a little better.

But, I think the bottom half of her face is disproportionate (Woah. I spelled that right :D) with the top, it's kinda big.

I think you could've have fixed up the wrinkles around her eyes a better.

Otherwise, good job (:

Eep, she kind of looks like an alien. Not a good picture to start off with. There's some weird coloring going on towards the left side (near the mouth).

oh lord. _unsure.gif
wow she looks ugly either way! lol (no offense)
but i think in your end result, her smile looks bigger. she looks like she has an evil grin like the joker.
i think that either you used too much of the blur tool, you didn't use it correctly, or both. her face just looks weird. also that like gow spot on her chin is weird.
& yeah her head looks too small for her bod since you made her hair line closer to her forehead.


but nice try! _smile.gif



(sorry if i sounded mean; i was just beign honest)

i have to agree. this picture is honestly really unflattering of her. you did a good job in the sense that you shifted her nose in a way that was not so unnatural but she looks hideous.

I agree with this. Both pictures are rather scary anyway. But the retouch I can see where your just starting out, you put to much makeup(color) on her face and you removed some important lines on her face so it makes her smile look rather large and scary.

I actually think she looks worse. She looks a lot older and a bit sunburned in the retouch. You did a pretty okay job on the nose, but it kind of makes the rest of her face look disproportioned... kind of like a Bratz doll.

But maybe it's just because I didn't have a problem with her face to begin with.

(btw, did you blend her face in with other faces?)

Yeah, that was a pretty horrible original picture, but I don't have a problem with the picture choice (after all, what's the point of a retouch if you pick a gorgeous photo of someone?). The whole thing just looks fake and unnatural.

- It wasn't really necessary to shrink her forehead
- There's sort of a light yellow blob on the left side of her mouth
- It's disproportional (small nose, huge mouth and jaw/chin)

I personally think she looks a little too sunburnt in your after photo. Either that, or she's wearing the wrong colored foundation. I also think she appears to be more wrinkled in your after.

Even though the original wasn't a great picture to begin with, I think that you actually ended up making her look... worse.
