okay so lately i've been working a lot on doing cosmetics (hair, makeup, skin fixtures) with Gimp i'm really into photo manipulation right now. and here is one of the ones i did. i took a picture that i took of myself about 3 years ago and tryed to make it look a little bit more like me now so the things i did was i applyed make up to the eyes, defined the eye browns a little bit more, fixed skin, darkened and fixed hair, and did a little bit to the eyes. i know it isn't much but i figured you gotta start somewhere so let me know wathcha think! C:
oh yeah the pictures a thumbnail so just click on it to make it bigger C:

The make over looks great. The changes are pretty basic, but one thing that stood out was the eyes. Kudos to that!
 I think the skin retouches on the face is a little bit extreme though. Did you try toning down the opacity to make it look more natural? |

Yeah definitely work on making the skin look more natural. Also the area under your chin/your chest area looks weird because it's obvious you did something to that area. Other than that, it's not that bad

^ I agree. The shadow by the nose looks like a smudge in the edit. I love what you did with the eyes, though.

I thought in general terms, you're suppose to sharpen hair, not blur it.
