lsin Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hi damien - is it possible to use puppet warp / liquify to bring the babies head and bum upwards to a more curved position like the photo below from kelly brown? i tried to use puppet warp but the baby ended up looking disfigured!

Damien Symonds Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Please don't upload other people's photos. It's exceptionally bad manners. You definitely wouldn't like it other people were doing it with your photos. Provide a link please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Thank you. Do you have reason to believe Kelly has used Puppet Warp on her photo? It seems likely that she posed the baby like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsin Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 oh i know that - i don't think she used it but i have seen before and after of other photographers who have used it and Kelly's pictures are always perfect so i wanted to show that as an example of what i was trying to achieve if possible - i know i should have achieved the look on the day but obviously the baby had other ideas so was just wondering if i could make the baby "curvier" without it looking too fake (sorry for the long post) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsin Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 ya i like that one better - what is the best way to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Ok, I started by duplicating the file, so I could have two copies open side by side on screen. This was necessary so I could be constantly referring to the original while messing about, so as to keep the child's proportions roughly correct. Then, on the working one, I duplicated the Background layer, and Edit>Transform>Warp. And bowed it down as shown: Once happy with that I went into Liquify, to mess around a bit more, to curve the back a little more, and make the head not so pointy, and so on: Then I copied the head from the original layer, brought it above, and masked it in: After your less-than-enthusiastic response, I re-visited that layer and rotated the head a lot more.
