[QUOTE="steadyJaw, post: 307709, member: 25101"] I'm amazed to see the beautiful things you are able to do to my ugly and amateurish pictures. It is so inspiring. Good call! I fixed the eye and erased the vertical lines. How do they compare now? For the eye I followed the steps shared by @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member.php?u=24753"]Eyelight[/URL] (thanks for the tips, man!), and then corrected the mess I made with the liquify filter. With tiles: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/0ktm65J.jpg[/IMG] Without tiles: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/lhG5j3q.jpg[/IMG] What an accurate and "slick" reference, sir ;-) And I love what you did with the light. It really has that mystic aura I was searching for. I also like the way you dealt with the reflection. I tried the B&W following your steps, and added free stock smoke from [URL="http://isostock.deviantart.com/art/Smoke-046-168327033"][B]here[/B][/URL] and [URL="http://sleepwalker-stock.deviantart.com/art/Smoke-stock-pink-139882331"][B]here[/B][/URL], since @[URL="http://nikonites.com/member.php?u=22693"]Blacktop[/URL]'s comment about lighting it up kept me thinking. Then I realized the red and violet smoke looked a bit cheesy and decided to go for a sepia. This is the result: B&W: [ATTACH=CONFIG]89565._xfImport[/ATTACH] Sepia: [ATTACH=CONFIG]89564._xfImport[/ATTACH] Thank you for the tips! Hahaha... that title is PERFECT my friend. High five! I followed your advice and I think I am more satisfied now with the result. There is still room for improvement, but I think this looks much better. I like the 4 pixel wide reflection you added, it looks natural. There is no excuse or retouching for bad pictures so I'll keep trying hard! This has been a lot of fun. Thank you guys! P.D. Eyelight, it is better if you open the image in full size to see the details of the eye. She is still a bit "looking at the bug at her nose" XD but it is much better than what I had before reading your tips. [/QUOTE]
