alexo Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 There are a lot of fakes floating around where a head is photoshopped on a different body. I wonder how to do that in PDN? In particular, how one would adjust the skin tones of the head and the body to match without affecting the background? Any helpful plugins? Thanks.

david.atwell Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 You can use the Conditional Hue/Saturation plugin, or just leave the head on its own layer and monkey with the colors in the Adjustments menu.

That will not work since I want the head (face) to stay the same and adjust the skin tone of the body (affecting the background as little as possible).

david.atwell Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Well, you can cut out the body from the image and put it on its own layer, too.

alexo Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Well, you can cut out the body from the image and put it on its own layer, too. Theoretically yes but in practice, the boundaries between the body skin and the background is not so well defined, particularly in the presence of clothes. The "magic wand" often fails to discern between them and using the lasso is very tedious, prone to errors and the results look bad. There must be a better way. Thanks, Alex.
