Justine83 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I didn't realize until I uploaded my images, just how short her skirt was. I'm not sure it's possible but maybe lengthening the shirt or extending the grass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Oh gosh, the pattern is going to make it difficult, that's for sure. Go ahead and do your raw processing as normal, then post again for me, including a closer crop of the area (I always feel seedy asking that!)

Justine83 Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Edited & cropped! Fingers crossed something can be done to save this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Oh gee, I beg you, PLEASE don't wait a moment longer to take the Raw Class. However, your job right away is to fix the catastrophic colour space problem. Follow this troubleshooter all the way to its conclusion. While you're doing that, I'm going to have a play with your photo and see what's possible for the fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Ok, I've got a fix to show you for your consideration. Let me know when you've fixed the colour space problem, and we'll go ahead and start discussing her skirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justine83 Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Ok! I've read and fixed it! I'll be signing up for the RAW class first thing tomorrow Looking forward to it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 So I think your best (only) chance is to liquify the skirt down: Do you think it's plausible enough to get away with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justine83 Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 WOW! It looks so much better! You are freaking amazing! How on earth do I create this effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Ok, phew! Glad you like it. Have you used the Liquify function before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justine83 Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 No never have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Ok, then this is going to be challenging for you. You'll find plenty of YouTube videos to teach you; I've recorded one here. Give me a minute and I'll upload the PSD file of my edit, I hope you'll be able to make some sense of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Download the PSD file I began by duplicating the Background layer and doing the Liquifying on it. Then I added the mask and masked it on. Then I realised I needed some new shadowing, so I created the Hue/Sat layer below the Liquify layer for that purpose. Finally, I realised that some grass was crooked, so I added the Clone layer for that purpose. If some or all of that doesn't make sense, add The Layers & Masks Class to your list.
