Not only can I manipulate photos (color correction, red eye, object removal, ect.) but I can also create completely new photos by combining elements from multiple sources.
We'll start off with simple fixes.
This gentleman wanted his face thinned out just a bit.
The man in the center wanted his "double chin" removed.
The woman on the right asked if I could make her less angry and slim down her chin.
This gentleman asked if he could be made to look 20 years younger. He also wanted the name "Sawyer" taken off the paper.
The woman on the far right asked to have her double chin reduced.
This was just a practice piece.
A friend of mine is a huge fan of the Boba Fett character from Star Wars. This photo was her Facebook cover photo for a while.
Another friend of mine had mentioned liking the cartoon "Daria", so I decided to turn her into the character.
Here's my Photoshopped friend as Daria. The jacket is pieced together from many different costume images and the glasses were just a generic stock photo.
Here's the character model for reference.
While at the zoo, this photo was taken.
I erased the fence and brightened the colors.
A friend of mine was commenting about being bald and not having to worry about long hair.
...and gave it to him.
The really complicated work.
A hobby of mine is building/sculpting with Lego. Here are some Photoshop edits that I put together after completing a build.
All of the pieces in this edit were built and photographed by myself with the exception of the stars. All effects (planet glow, thruster blasts, motion blur) were done directly in Photoshop.
This one was quite complex with a ton of different layers. The Death Star surface is made up of 3 different Lego panels that I pieced together and photographed separately. The scale and perspective tools were used to create the different angles of the trench. A motion blur effect was then applied. All lasers were hand... mouse-drawn.
This Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) portrait was drawn directly in Photoshop using the polygonal lasso tool.
Spider-Man. Drawn directly in Photoshop.
This second image of Venom Spider-Man was made using the first image and just re-coloring it.
