Me again... Question about skin retouch.

[isaac_magana]

Hi, yeah it's me again.

I saw these photos on America's Next Top Model, cycle 16. The photographer is Mike Rosenthal.
I loved the concept and everything.

I really like the skin appereance in this photos and I'm sure it has to do a lot with the lighting, the MUAs and the camera (Hasselblad) but I'm pretty sure that there was some retouching involved.

Does anybody know how to achieve this?
I've always wanted to achieve this kind of skin appereance.

Looks like the skin retouch was Airbrushed on the models at the set. They could of been touched up in PS but its hard to tell.

I never thought about the air brush! You're right. Thanks a lot (:

Honestly... I don't see what the rest sees.

I like the images. Nothing too original/poses/framing/lighting (but then again... it is ANTP :P )

The styling I like and make up was nicely done, but there's a lot of really good retouching in those pictures.

Detail work. Good eye for color.

Techniques? Could have been done in a lot of ways, but it's the usual...

A lot of healing/cloning - D&B - I'm inclined to think the color was mostly done in raw and then tweaked in PS.

I was just laughing at Smith's comment, but the work on them is pretty good, though they are too small to see the details, I mean the downsized pictures look kinda blury. I should have written this in the first place...
