I take photo-retouching challenges. I finally got a copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 (I gave up groceries for the year. It's cool, I need to lose weight anyway) and I'm having a killer good time learning how to use it properly.
This is a challenge posted on Retouchpro.com - it's actually a much larger photo, but I decided to focus on the face and skin first as my old techniques (Gaussian Blur, Art History Brush) just wasn't gonna cut it.
This is probably 3/4 done - I need to take care of that weird greeny/yellow burn thing going on on the jawline, plus I want to fiddle with the color and the nails and the hair and the makeup and...
P.S. I think I'll call it done - I've exhausted all of my photoshop skillz. It's time to pick up some PS books and learn from online tutorials. I LOVE MY PHOTOSHOP CS3!
