Class Task #6 – Photo Editing Challenge

[Problem #1]

How did you do it?

I fixed Mr. One Eyed by using the magic wand and selecting the area of his eye. I had copied, pasted it and by using free transform I flipped his eye around to get it at the right position. I used the eyedropper tool to sample the colours I needed to blend it with, then I took the smudge tool to blend the colours so that I get it at the right combination of the shade.

My Solution:
Original Mr.One Eyed Cat with Two Eyes

[Problem #2]

How did you do it?

I repaired the newspaper first by selecting the picture of Ho. After, I free transformed it and flipped it, also I deleted any facial parts I didn’t need. I had to zoom in all the way so that I could see the tiny square boxes with each different colour in it. By doing so, it helped me to blend the colours in with almost the same shade. When using the smudge tool I would choose which tickness I needed for the brush to be and I chose the mode( darken, lighten, colour, etc.) I copied and pasted the margin of the newspaper to get a more real feeling to it by adding all the wrinkles. But I was careful that I don’t repeat them to much, which then it will look photoshoped. Last but not least I had to use the burn tool to make the pasted picture look more darker because it was fairly lighter then the rest of the original picture. In the end my finished product shows my hard work!
