Pretty sloppy...you chopped up the top of the head, made a hole in the hair, and needlessly messed up the background. This could/should be just a sraightforward blend of Obama's face onto the source pic. Reply »

Hmmmm....wasnt this done already? Reply »

Author, beneath the right ear there's background instead of hair, and there's an area of black with an abrupt line at the top. Also, look at the top of the head... Reply »

Reply:

there is a hole in the hair on the left..author dont go clicking negative thumbs down on comments when you are the one who fails to see your own mistake...its up to us if this entry gets 1st place or not so u better get the fixin and take these comments as critique! Reply »

This isn`t right.... this author wouldnt make such obvious mistakes.... its almost like an account hack....very suspicious!!! Reply »

Reply:

On the LH side, you can see the braids that abruptly stop at the "hole," and then continue down by the neck...

You also have some very obvious on top of the head and on the LH side about 2/3 down, joining to the braids...It's poorly painted, and the color doesn't match the hair, the background, or anything else...

The strange fuzzy black spot near the top of the head, and the black fuzzy edges along the LH side of the "holey" braids just add to the overall confusion of this piece.

You should seriously consider working some more on this entry, it needs some help.

Author, you really scared me, as I saw the first version! Luckily there was an explanation for it This one here is like it should be, when it comes from you.
There are just 2 things I noticed.
On the right side of the image is a white part, between the head and the right border. Looks like you forgot to erase it from the Obama image. Another part of white is also in the upper left corner.
And you might have a look at his/her left cheek. Next to the earring is a spot on the cheek, that looks brighter than the rest of the skin.
Good luck!

The lighting on the bottom of the chin and under the cigar throws the effect off. Perhaps you can darken it with "selective color" making a selection and then darkening/tinting the whites.

EDIT: Nice correction. Looks much better!
That cigar in her mouth just kills me! Reply »

Reply:

I see what you mean, Mossy. While I haven't had much success with "selections" inside an image - I did grab a soft BURN brush and darkened alternately the "shadows" and the "midtones" at about 7% each. Definite improvement in the overall blend.

Thanks for the help. Reply »

The face is a different skin color than the neck. The neck has more red tones in it and is lighter. Reply »

Reply:

I see the red tones mentioned and should be an easy fix, just a bit on the left side of the neck. Overall a superior blend here, author. Best so far.

Well done. Reply »

Reply:

Fixed... I think!

Thanks! Reply »

Reply:

The finished product here isn't unusual looking. This is actually a realistic finish. Nice work nonetheless.

EDIT: No need to reiterate the guidelines...and no need for defensiveness author. You did a fine job...I merely commented that the end result doesn't look like a hideous or outrageous combination.

I understand, author! One big from me!! Reply »

Reply:

The goal says: "Try to blend this as realistic and convincing as possible."



EDIT: I wasn't trying to be defensive just want to explain why I didn't made a "outrageous combination"...

Thanks!! Reply »
