great work

great job at keeping it real!!

quite good.. i'd maybe push his cheeks in a bit because smiling and having a sad face don't effect the same muscles. also, remove the writing on the photos, i think it's quite obvious which is which. and one last thing; change the title.. "miracle of photoshop" just sounds cheesy imho.

elficho. thanks for the great support. Improved! sometimes little details make a great difference.

I just looked at this picture for 10 minutes and I still don't know, how to describe what I mean... First of all: you did really a great job! It looks very good and almost convincing. My problem is, that he still looks around his mouth, as if he is smiling. Of course he doesn't smile, but I just have the feeling as if. And I think it's because of his cheeks, what Elficho already mentioned. When you smile, you have these two "crinkles" next to your nose, that lead to your mouth (hard to explain that in English...) But when you look sad, your cheeks are almost totally even...

Of course the man has a lot of wrinkles, but I think it could look much more real, if you'd make the cheeks a bit more even, so you don't have the impression, that he's still smiling. I know, that you already worked on them, but maybe you could improve it. I don't know, if it will look better or worse, but maybe it's worth a try. Ok... I probably could have written that much shorter, but I wanted to explain it I really like your image and I just want to help. Good luck!

good work and i like this pic, but i think the sad face its still look like a happy face, good luck!!

Great change

Pretty ok, but Lelaina is right. These "wrinkles" that she mentioned are there because the guy is smiling. If he'd be sad, the "corners" from those wrinkles would go down too, in more or less a same certain result as when he's smiling (maybe less strong because the skin could act different when it's going downwards). If you can fix that, it can be a very believable result. Good luck!

Thanks my friends !
You were right about the wrinkles. I hope that now is better

Yup, certainly better! Maybe one more tiiiiny nitpick: the nostrils are still too high (guy was laughing, so then you get that). Use liquify carefully to push them somewhat down and you're there . Good luck!

Done! Is fantastic to receive support from a PRO. Thanks

Looks way better now! Good luck again!

Congrats for your first place, HavingFun!

Congrats Havingfun!

his eyes look unnatural

If you blur the iris of the eye, it will look a little more natural: also, a little more shadow between the lids and the eyeball. Very cute idea, GL

Fantastic, quite cartoony (which is great) Good luck!

too much white showing in the upper part of the eye. very cute and good job with the lips

lol..

nice work

The sad face is so adorable. Poor little thing. Good job with both expressions and a very cute baby Good luck!

Congrats for your second place!

Congratulations for 2nd

Congrats

Congrats!!

Very convincing!!

yep, nice job on the eyes too! her lips look a bit bigger though

Haven't I already met them? They look so familiar. *scratch my head* Very good job! And like Elficho said: The eyes look especially great! Just one tiny nitpick (my eyes went directly to that spot): On her right part of the mouth, there is an almost white spot next to the corner of her mouth. Maybe you could try to make that look more like her actual skin colour. But like I said: That's really a tiny nitpick Good luck!

Very nicely done! Love the shadow from the frame. GL

nice entry

Great job

Congrats for your third place, Loopy!

excellent work.. put some more steps into the SBS and submit as a tutorial.. it's excellent as well

I remember this very good job ....

Great idea..lovely work!

Perhaps remove the tears on the happy face and it will complete the idea...or maybe its tears of joy...

Oh I remember it too. And it's still as great and funny as before And from now on I truely believe, that rocks have feelings Good luck again!

Images that stays in mind are good nice to see it back.

neat!!

Congrats

Nice job! The cheeks look a bit over liquified, but overall the finished result is very believable. I like how you removed the laughter lines as well! Good luck
