Re: what can you do with this **semi-Provocative**

Beautiful sister...

I don’t know why, but in the original, the dynamic range got lost. Making it a bit difficult to saturate and brighten but I tried anyway. Below is my attempt and screen shoot of what I did. The only thing I was unsure of was the crop, but I left it in original for comparison reasons.

I like your version; it’s got a nice soft feel.

Thanks for the play,
-Keven

Crazy picture - so I went crazy with it, retouching not my thing really and you didn't specify a particular style, hope you don't mind.

Re: what can you do with this **semi-Provocative**

thanks TW and welcome to retouchPro! it's a great place to learn lots of new things! i like different aspects of each edit you've done. i think the second one looks a little more "crisp" as the first one looks a little dull still. i like that the first one still has a little more color left in it but i also like the selective colorings on the 2nd one. nice boob job too lol. all in all, the things you've done look like you've done them correctly...nothing jumps out at me as being wrong or bad so you're starting out pretty good thanks!

Re: what can you do with this **semi-Provocative**

First I got rid of the open crotch. Then softened up the skin a bit, converted to BW with a red filter, added some grain, and sucked the contrast way down.

It's a cartoon action I made for PS CS2.

-Duplicate background layer

-Auto Color and Auto Levels
-LucisArt(contrast) Sculpture-button 1-amount 1- 20%
-LucisArt Exposure-button 1-amount1-60%
-Redfield Perfectum(smooth it) 75%
-Topaz Vivicity Sharpen(sharpen) Line Accent 1- Iteration 1

-Duplicate that layer

-Redfield Fractalius(dark edges)- Custom setting but you can use Sketch BW 01 and boost the Saturation slider
-Change the blend mode on that layer to Hard Light
-Adjust the opacity on the top two layers to taste
-Flatten
