Natural Manipulation

To create this image i used to images as base images. I used a womans face and a leaf that i found on the interent and put them in seperate layers. I then put i multiply blending effect on the leaf layer.

I then put a layer mask on the leaf layer and changed the opacity to around 60% andused a blac brush to edit the leaf so that it was only on her skin, eyes and lips.

After that i creted a new layer and filled it with 50% grey. Then I used a white and black brush to create light and drak places to simultae highlights and shadow.

In this image i repeated the same technique again.

In this image i used the same technique as the image before.

To create this image first i got a base image of a hippo and a lizard. I then scaled the hippo's head into position so that it would blend nicley with the lizard. I then held alt and clicked the adjustment layer shortcut and used the colour balance selection tool to ajust the colour of the hiipo so that the hippo blended with the body of the lizard.

I then used the same layer adjustment tool to change the brightnes and contrast of the head. I also used a black brush with the layer set to multiply and editied the head so that it fitted with the body.

I then the quick mask selection tool to select the top right of the image. I then used brightness and contrast to make it brighter. I also used the clone stamp tool to get rid of the lizards head.

Lastly I created a new layer and filled it with blue and then made it opaqe by turning the opacity down to around 30%. I then used the multiply blending effect so that the whole image would look like one image and not different parts that have been stuck together.
