Photoshop Homework Week 3 & 4

I finished my Photoshop class!
I probably spent about 4 hours on this last assignment using all the retouching techniques I learned.

Here is the original picture:
There are a million things I could pick apart about this picture. I REALLY didn't want to post it.
But I guess you have to see the before to appreciate the after.

And here is Lesli "Photoshopped".

I added eyelashes.
Got rid of the bags.
Smoothed the skin.
Brightened the eyes.
Deepened the lips.
And much more I can't tell you about.

Is the last class we learned how to make our own actions.
(If you don't know what actions are, click here.)
I used to add my "watermark" to each picture for my blog one by one. Now with my "watermark action" I can to it a LOT faster.

I'm sad the class is over now, but it was soooo worth it.
Here's the info again if you're interested.

  2. I have seen that. I would have made her face even skinnier. She was still unattractive in the end. Good message though. Our Photoshop teacher made sure to tell us to use our new-found powers responsibly.
