Advertising slogan "Manage your dream!" can be made the motto of the masters of Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop creates a virtual world that can become a reality if you really want to. If you are unhappy with your figure, arm yourself with the tools from the arsenal of this graphic editor and tweak your appearance. The result will be an incentive to shed sweat in the gym and on the stadium treadmill.
Necessary
- - Adobe Photoshop version 8 or higher;
- - Photo.
Instructions
Step 1
Open the photo you want to change. Use the Ctrl + J combination to copy the image to a new layer, so as not to damage the original during further work.
Step 2
Select Filter and Liquify from the main menu. On the toolbar, activate the Freeze Mask ("Freeze"). On the right side of the property bar, set the brush size Brush Size = 20, Brush Density Density = 100, Brush Pressure = 100. Such high values of density and pressure are needed so that the mask does not smear over the image, but hides only those areas that need to be protected from deformation. Varying the size of the brush, apply a mask to the image around the area that you will be processing. In our case, this is the sea around the belly and the guy's head. If you grabbed too much, activate the tool Thaw Mask Tool ("Defrost") and remove the mask.
Step 3
Select the Push Left Tool and adjust its parameters. It is better to increase the size of the brush to 60-100, depending on the size of the image, but lower the density and pressure to 20 so that the correction is neat and gentle. If you move the cursor up, the pixels are shifted to the left; if you move the cursor down, to the right. Swipe the tools to the right of the belly from bottom to top, from the left - from top to bottom. The stomach retracted a little. Limit yourself to this for now and start working your hands from the inside. Walk the tools along the arms one time and click on the OK button to save the changes.
Step 4
The filter window has closed and you are back to the main image. Note that blurry pixels have appeared around the girl's figure - this is an area not protected by the mask deformed. Select the Clone Stamp Tool from the toolbar. On the property bar, set the hardness to 100% and the brush size to 5-10 pixels. It is better to enlarge the image for ease of processing. Move the cursor over the picture as close as possible to the girl's figure, hold down alt="Image" and click on the selected area of the background. The cursor will change to look like a telescopic sight. This means that the tool has selected a sample of the drawing and is ready to reproduce it. Carefully move the cursor over the blurred area - the image is replaced with the one along which the cross moves.
Step 5
After removing the blurry pixels, select the Liquify filter again, mask the background around the girl's figure with a mask and continue to process the desired areas with the Push Left Tool and Forward Warp Tool ("Deformation"). Their parameters are approximately the same. The second tool is not in vain like a finger - they can smear a drawing or collect it in a pile. Use each tool no more than twice. After that save the result, go back to the main image and remove the blurry pixels again.
Step 6
When the girl has lost weight to an acceptable size, using the Clone Stamp Tool, paint her bathing suit in place of her former abdomen and process the skin on the inner thighs, as the image is blurred and stretched. Better to do it on a new layer.
