*Black layer under the working layer.
*Soft eraser to blend image edges.
*Hue & sat adj on various parts of face.
*Various amounts of adaptive equalization.
*Painted in shadows with low opacity.
*Healing brush to remove items that make-up would normally cover.
*Contrast adjustments where needed.
*Created a simplified layer under working.
*Some gaussian blur.
*Another hue & sat adj.
*Added noise.
Of course layers and masks were involved and applied to individual taste. | LQQKER,
Thank you so much for the "walk through". I do agree, your rendering is a bit out of scope for "glamour retouch" and better fits with photo-art, it's a great work, nevertheless.

| | | Had fun with this one.
I looked at this as I would do If this was going to be publish on a magazine or an Ad.
I think her expression was not very good, so I changed it a bit to give her some attitude.
Then coloring and crop was a key factor.
I'd love to see some feedback.
cheers

| | | I tried an experiment. I used the original picture that I posted, which I intentionally had texture, just to see how Byro's technique would work with the texture I added. |

| | | Newbie Post I'm a newbie to manipulating digital photos. This is the first post of work I've attempted in-order to learn to use the programs I have, this was done in Paint Shop Pro X. I also have CS2 but at this point in my evolution I find Paint Shop Pro easier to use. |

| | | Thought I'd give it a go. Nothing fancy, just some simple healing brush, gaussian blurring on the skin with 50% visibility, dodging/burning and some selective color adjustments. |
