Original picture of Lacy added to the Debbie Gibson photo (above):
A precision cut of Lacy is below. Once the precision cut has been made, she can be resized and transposed into other pictures with ease.
I will show you how to make the same precision cuts over and over again with little effort after the initial precision cut has been made in this tutorial.
Here is a synopsis of the steps taken to make the Debbie Gibson enhancement above:
The insertion position of the Debbie Gibson photo was first determined so I would know how the precision cut of Lacy had to be cropped and rotated before she was pasted in.
The precision cut on the right was then cropped to remove her left hand as it would not show in the final enhancement.
The Composite Resizing Calculator was used to determine how much the precision cut of Lacy had to be reduce to fit properly into the Debbie Gibson enhancement photo above.
The precision cut of Lacy was then rotated counterclockwise a little before she was transposed to the Debbie Gibson photo.
The addition to the jeans was done after she was transposed into the Debbie Gibson photo.
Her skin color tones were then adjusted a little.
Shadowing was added to make her blend in better.
And finally, the remnants of the girl Lacy was pasted over were removed from the background.
Each of the steps outlined above will be explained with fully illustrated pictures. Plus an explanation of what tools to use and what their settings should be will be given in the Cut, Copy, Paste and Blend Tutorial.
