I've seen a lot of retouching, but I was pretty amazed by the amount done here. I just thought I'd share.

Makeup to take ten year off your looks, then another ten in retouching.  ;D

40 the new 20.  LOL!

This site was posted on here a long time ago - i havent had a look to check but before it went down for a redesign it had a portfolio section with a lot of before and after rollover photos of celebs' photo retouches:

I would have no clue as to doing this type of retouching, but I would sure love to learn!

Oh, I should have stated the photograph was from some movie site and I used it straightly to practice photo retouching. No other purpose. If anyone think for some legel reason I should delete that photo, please advice.

I can't say I like the postprocessing on those pictures. Looks way too plastic.

Thanks for your comment 3D Guy.
Yes, that was only my early practice on photo retouching. I didn't do it for any trade. Still have a lots to learn.
Cheers,

My retouch skills are fairly poor.  It is neat to see it well done but folks someday learn the real people are not retouched...not the ones you live with and love like they are.   Well, we do try to look better and firm up a bit here and there.  Some of us actually clean up quite well...but it is still us an no magic brushes.

For most advertising purposes, a better look is preferred by me than a totally realistic one.

Never trust a magazine cover!!! LOL.

FYI, there is a program I played with a while back called Portrait Professional that does some amazing stuff with just a few clicks and some sliders.

They have a free trial that leaves a watermark. Pretty fun to play with it for sure.
