    Yeah, nice link Axel3.14!

    For some reason people who morph on these boards are very protective of their techniques, so you probably won't get a step-by-step guide. To see what there is try searching for Liquify or Photoshop in this forum. To be fair, though there really isn't a definitive method anyway so your best bet is to jump in and get your hands dirty. You'll find it's not as hard as you think and people are much more likely to give up some info if you have a specific question.

    To get started with Photoshop you could try a few head swap morphs. This basically involves cutting out a head from one picture, say a famous actress or model and pasting on a female bodybuilder's body. Magnetic lasso or magic wand tools are good for cutting out heads. You can also go all Frakenstein and cut and paste body parts from all over the place if you want to get more adventurous. Of course that might involve using the Hue/Satuation adjustment to even out the skin tone between the various parts.

    You can then try applying the Liquify Filter on the body. To avoid morphing the background as well you should cut the body out and then paste the morphed version back on the origiinal picture. Morphing basically involves using the bloat or warp tools to distort the body to make the muscles larger. Start with photos of female bodybuilders first as they obviously have a lot more to work with. You can experiment with the brush size, density and pressure to get the effect that you want. Photoshop's online help should tell about all the different settings and what they do.

    When you get really good you can post-process the morphed body by actually painting over it with the airbrush. You can add shading, shadows, veins, skin texture, ripping clothers, lighting effects or whatever.

    Anyway, the bottom line is most people who do muscle image enhancements are self-taught, so now it's your turn.

    Have fun and don't be afraid to post the results!
