JoC Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hi there I'm wondering what tools would be best to remove the dry patches from the baby's head (currently I would use the patch tool), and also the best way to remove the wet patch on the dress so it's the right colour again. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Hi Jo, While I'm experimenting with the dress, can you show me a 100% crop of the dry skin area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Oh. Actually, I'm very worried about what the moisture has done to the texture of the dress. May I also have a 100% crop from about here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoC Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 I've cropped from the raw file, hope this is what you were after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Yes, that's what I'm after, thanks, but please read the instructions again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoC Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 Sorry, I'm new here... read and done. Very grateful for your help. I have money set aside for one of your courses so advice on which one to start with for editing images such as this one would be appreciated too!

Damien Symonds Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 7 minutes ago, JoC said: The patch tool is definitely a legitimate approach here. The only thing about that tool is that it can get tricky when you get very close to hairs - have you found that? Here is another method I tried (a combination of this and this). How does it compare to your patch tool one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you'll start with the Raw Class. It's the first step in the workflow, and everything hinges on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoC Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 The patch tool is so quick and easy - yes a bit tricky around hairs but doable. Will check out the fixing skin link later - looks like a great method to have under the belt, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel pretty on top of raw editing - I use bridge and PS - what would be next on the list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
