So, I tried my first retouch after being inspired by gigiopolis with his retouch of Katherine Heigl. This is my retouch of the exact image:




Anddd... since that retouch I decided to try something a little harder. I found this picture of Jamie Lee Curtis. I did not want to take away every single line and wrinkle because, well, she's old lol. I just tried to lessen the deepness of them (I guess thats a good way to put it). BTW: don't mind her right earring... it somehow became discolored but i'm way too lazy to fix it :P

//EDIT March 28:
okay, so i tried to make the teeth more... un blurred? and for the smudge.. i did not change much in that area but i couldn't take take out the smudge... also i tried adding the tan back, but i'm having trouble putting back the color without making it look cakey. any tips?




PLEASE i need all the criticism i can get! I really wanna become better at retouching :)
