Photoshop slimming photo retouch tip
And uh we’re going to do a a a retouch here that is seems relatively um well it’s very very simple and quick and it does a great job two retouches.
Here’s the first one. Step one is to get the lasso tool, what do you call it in Canada? The lasso tool. Right, so get the lasso tool and just kind of draw around, we’re going to cut around his cheeks and chin and all that right here and go right across his beard here. We’re just going to go right across this area right in here. Now to make this kind of the changes we’re going to do, kind of not so obvious, we need to soften the edges of our selection. So go under the select menu and choose feather. Now I’m working on a low resolution image here so a feather radius of five is fine. Working on a high resolution image when you’re taking with your digital camera you might want to might want to do more like a fifteen or twenty.
And click ok. So far so good. Now it gets really really easy. That was the hard part. Easy part is this. Go into the filter menu, under distort and choose pinch. Now this this basic filter will let you pinch in the selected area. So we bring it up and we select pinch. Here it is right here and I’m going to apply it once and then go back and apply it again and then when I deselect you’ll see the difference. Now you might not at first realise what a big change this was. So I’m going to go back to the history pallet. The history pallet keeps track of the last twenty things that you have done in Photoshop.
