I uploaded a makeover video before this one. It's some girl with a lot of freckles, but I'm not proud of how I edited it, lol.

C&C if you want. :)

You messed with her teeth again. >:|

Good job. I wish someday you'd share your techniques. lol

[manny-the-dino]

^I know her teeth are her but it looks better after the retouch, imo.


Holy shit Mark, this is amaaaaaaaaazing. It looks so much better. I dk what else to say. I'm speechless. Just keep up the great work!

[Mikeplyts]

That is f*cking amazing Mark! Everything looks way better and I'm really impressed at how you got rid of all those little wrinkles and made her so much vibrant. Excellent work.



I agree with Thomas, just make a damn homepage for your site. >=O

[Maccabee]

Sweet bro. You really took of lot of years... When I hovered it looked like a very scary old women.

Have you studied complexions or something?

[markmejia]

thanks, all. :)

^ mm, kind of. a lot of times, i try to study the natural form of the face, like the way cheeks are formed and how skin begins to sag by aging.

[technicolour]

You are a god.

I bow down.

[rickysaurus]

what is that red thing you use to highlight parts of her face. what tool is that?

and you dont need me to tell you how great it looks.

Quick mask and brush tool? (keyboard shortcut = q & b)

[rickysaurus]

Ooh ok thanks. I don't know what a quick mask does really but I'll go look that up.

[synapse]

by default, it makes a selection of everything not highlighted by red.

[rickysaurus]

or i could just have you tell me. haha thanks.

[Joanne]

Wow Mark. Wow.

Hehe, I love hovering back and forth on the picture. It's like the original is cold and dreary, and the makeover is pretty and fresh

[jiyong]

Hehe, I love hovering back and forth on the picture.

Haha, me too. Her skin looks so much better after you fixed it. Amazing job (:

[markmejia]

haha thanks guys. :D appreciate it.

oh, it's either quick mask, as thomas mentioned, or the freeze tool in the liquify tool.

Overall, I really like it. I'm not a fan of blurring. Have you tried D&B?

I really like her brows and the nostril modification, the before looks like she's flaring a bit. I also like the color modification though the original was nice to begin with.

[splendid]

unbelievable

[synapse]

btw mark you already know i think this is awesome

First thing that comes to my mind from D&B is dodge&burn

[Simba]

haha yea it's the dodge and burn technique, though i still don't know much about it

[transcendentalis...]

haay it looks awesome! i was really scrutinizing it though, and it looks like on the right where her hair comes down to about her collarbone, you can kinda tell the skin is off, same with the other side as well. but otherwise, awesome job :)

[markmejia]

^ thanks, ruth. :] and yeahh, i do see it. i'll keep that in mind for next time.
