great work as always. welcome back!!!!

What I usually do is start by lining up chin / eyes and secondarily mouth/nose/ears, which actually matched really well for this image; Ms. Knightley just is blessed with a pretty broad jaw and an unholy long thin neck which I couldn’t do justice to (at least not yet). As posted she’s only about 6-6.5 heads tall I’m guessing which would be short to average. The hand-to-face proportions also seemed reasonable. Though definitely, if you dial down the head size a few percent, it does set off the comparative body size more dramatically.

Pretty rare to happen across three images with compatible lighting – FBBs almost always get crazy-aggressive side lighting to set off the definition, while model shoots are full of uniform fill. Tried a couple others from the respective sets and none of the trios wanted to conspire the way the three for this one did. If another lightning strike hits and 4 more hours disappear into photoshop, more posting will happen. Perhaps something with a punchline next time…

Maybe someday I’ll obtain the worth1000 (re)touch, hah. Getting all the brightness/contrast/saturation/color balance/shadows/proportions balanced is head-spinning!
:laugh:

I notice that people selected for roles as actresses, newcasters, etc. generally have slightly bigger heads in proportion to their bodies than the average person, must be important to yield the appropriate “screen presence”.

Saotomeproject: keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing such great morphs! Here’s a nightcap:

Okay, here’s a revised version, a bit more neck, a slightly smaller head, a few other tweaks and funs.

I’d choose someone short like Christina Aguilera or Salma Hayek and pump them up to giantess proportions with massive muscle.

OK, what do you think of these?

With all this experience you could really forget the simple ‘headswap’ technique and step one level higher…

Hint, hint:)

[Apsin23]

Good suggestion…as soon as I’ve perfected the headswap so mine are as real-looking as JDM022’s last one (Kim Johnson, geez, I looked at his under 400% magnification and still couldn’t find a trace of head swapping!)…so I’m not quite there yet I think. Suggestions for possible morph projects are welcome.

[Apsin23]

Speaking of perfecting technique, 8 of my entries to the Celebrity Morphs contest at Worth1000 were rejected due to not meeting the criteria for an advanced photo effects contest (either poor image quality or inadequate execution of the morph). I agree with them though. And at least most of my entries did make the cut!

Voting ends tonight!

Folks, you can mark your rating (from 1 to 10) on all 72 entries. Register (free) in order to vote.

Your opinion counts! You can also write comments and critique. But please note: The contest is anonymous and needs to stay that way. If you happen to recognize which morphs were made by me, or by others on this forum, don’t disclose that in your comment!

P.S. Here is the rating guide:

Using the available scale of 1 – 10 (one being the lowest and 10 being the highest):

1. Any entry you rate a 1, should be flagged at the same time. If it’s so bad as to deserve a 1, it shouldn’t be on worth1000. We don’t need to list examples. You’ll know them when you see them.

2. Any entry that is horrible. It probably should also be flagged. For example, brutal blending and jagged layer edges.

3. An entry that is below average. Definitely needs that extra hour of work or thought. Easy things have been ignored.

4. An entry that could have been good, but is missing that extra 15 minutes of work or thought behind it.

5. It’s average. Not great, not bad.

6. It’s better than average.

7. Great idea and execution. It’s much better than average.

8. Terrific idea and execution, and something that sets it apart from just being “great”.

9. This is almost perfect. The idea and execution are fantastic and there is a special something that makes it really stand out.

10. The execution is perfect and the idea behind it is brilliant. This is the best thing I have seen on this site in a while. “Wow!”
