░▒▓█ My Showcase █▓▒░

[viksra]

Here's my showcase of work! I will put all of my work in this thread only.

Picture of my friend Sarah. In the attached image, I used Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended to create the dodge & burn (D&B) effects on her skin with protect tone checked. I blurred that layer using gaussian blur. Variation between clone tool and content aware scaling was used to get rid of the corner created by the two walls running perpendicular into one another. Image took about 3 to 4 hours to complete. Overlap the two images in two different tabs and switch back and forth to see the differences easier.

Ugh, what's with the disgusting compression on this website? It ruined the quality of the touched up image and made it all grainy

The overall look is amazing, but something's wrong with this walls now, the two sides of the sofa now seem to touch the same wall, seems rather impossible in reality.

But I love how you played with colours and highlights!

Lol, I noticed the wall looked a little off too... mainly with the texture directly next to the sofa. I tried to get the texture to appear throughout the entire wall, but it was too much work for the time that I wanted to get it done by.

Thanks! Should I just stop posting my stuff in this thread or can is it going to be moved onto the other board?

LOL, I didn't even notice that to be honest. Yeah I should probably take that out lol

Here's another image I did. Overlap them to see changes.

Your thread cannot be moved to the gallery. You'll need to create your gallery from scratch. Another alternative, if you want to include a lot of commentary, is to start a blog. But, the gallery gives you much more visibility for the images.

Thanks Tommy, we can just let this thread die now. I'm going to the other board
