Inspired by erose :)

Okay, no it's not a duckface. Sorry, but my duckface is terrible and will never be seen in public. So, here's me. An (almost) original (was only slightly "repaired" in LR3) and then my "edit" with the whites of my eyes lightened and skin airbrushed just to even the tones out. I know I screwed up a little on the (camera) right side of my face, but my computer started going slow so I was going faster than the brush was... I can't WAIT to get my Wacom Tablet! lol

Anywho, here we go:

(Almost) Original:

Edited:

I probably won't check back in on this until the morning, but PLEASE leave me some C&C and tell me how I did with the retouching

Thanks

 

[JeffieLove]

I was actually going to ask you (erose) about shooting a band, but I'll create a thread for that

Good job on the edit, your skin looks great!

All ladies are allowed their secrets
I don't think I can find a picture of myself that I haven't edited... For that matter I can't find a picture of myself without duckface...

I have recently tried to be conscious of what my face is doing in pictures however as soon as the camera hits me I can feel my mouth pulling into an awkward pout that resembles a duck. I can't help it. I think I need an intervention.

Everyone on the forum except you two.

Ok.... IT'S ON!! However... at 42, you wont see the same youth. Which will be an even greater challenge! So... keep an eye out

Wait... What's on? I wasn't trying to challenge you for something... I'm confused,

oh WAIT! I read it the opposite. Everyone ISNT inspired except us two... not EVERYONE IS inspired except us two. LORDIE it has been a long day. See how eager I am for a photography challenge? Anyway I did my pic so....... i may as well post it, right?

 

[MissCream]

So do I need to make a ladies of TPF thread lol?

 

[AprilEye]

Ok #1 Undedited and oy... I am tired.

Ok #2 A little "makeup", airbrush and eye bright. (actually maybe a little heavy on the blush.)

 

[point-&-shoot]

sorry for the ignorance but what is a duck face?

 

[AprilEye]

So do I need to make a ladies of TPF thread lol?

Good idea and not done yet. I said it before... "ITS ON!" Ha Ha! :lmao:
I really like doing face edits, I just never thought to do my own.
