Weird Soup

use magnetic lasso tool to cut out man's head and tomato
cut out both hands and copy them as many times as you want
paste a picture of boiling water as the background
copy the top of the water then make it less opaque so you can see the hands and tomato through it
erase the ends of the hands with a feather edged eraser
cut out the splat and free transform it to fit the rim of the pot
reduce opacity of splat

okay i hope i'm doing this right this is my first time doing this

Lets see if I remember since I did this a coupl e of days ago.
Every step is always done on a seperate layer. First thing I did was to crop it down.
Outlined the head witht he lasso tool and then used the pick tool to enlarge it. Used the warp tool to funkify the ears, nose, eyes, mouth and hands.
Used Topaz Adjust to make it look more like a cartoon
Added the girl in on a raster layer using a tube. added a drop shadow and I think that was it

What_Would_You_Do_118_vm

In Paintshop Pro:
Cropped the original, adjusted contrast, noise reduction, and sharpness.
Duplicated on a new layer and applied a water color filter.
Made an additional copy of the water color layer.
Set the first water color layer to Multiply.
Set the second water color layer to Soft Light.
Duplicated the original on a final layer and set to Color(Legacy).

Wind, THIS ONE'S FOR YOU!!!!!



What can I say? My 5 yo wanted him to be a hamburger!

Found Harley Hamburger (why anyone would do this, I just don't know), opened tomato as new layer, masked out unwanted portions of tomato layer, scaled, added new arms, masked out harley so tomato looked like he was driving, unsharp masked everything, flattened.

I figured he's good entertainment even in his retirement.



All I did was find a picture of Bush and render the head using the pen tool.

Then, I placed the head overtop of the other head and blended it in using a round brush with low opacity and 0% hardness.

I also resized and sharpened to help with the appearance of the blending (used a low quality picture of bush).
