Ok, more body shaping post processing - look at the after first please and leave comments on what catches your eye, then compare with before.
I've incorporated a lot of what we discussed last time -
After
Before

not talking bootys here, talking processing - try to stay focused dude :-)
FWIW, I love her shape as a model before all the messing around too. Just trying stuff in PS so I can be cool like the Dove Film people.

I like how you brightened it up and toned down the reflections on her boots. And from a processing standpoint, I have to agree with Leroy about the booty:) She has fine proportions and taking so much off, makes her appear a little unbalanced, anatomically. The arm and leg tweaks are much more subtle, and seem fine, to me. Nice work on the BG, too. |

I think you did a very good job of what you were trying to do. What tools did you use...it looks like you "squished" rather than "trimmed" if I am viewing things right. (The pattern on the dress on her "booty" is what I'm talking about) |

How about making a tutorial?

The thinning of the arm and the thinning of the lower leg as it enters the boot both create a better image, IMO. They certainly enhance the models attributes. As for the bottom, I think you can leave it untouched (so to speak). |

interesting, the model asked me not to touch her bottom too! haha?
Actually she saw this too - and was supportive but obviously distressed that I removed so much of it.
I agree too.
Most of this was done with the mesh distort tool in CS/2. You select an area, hit ctrl-T to get to the transform, then click in the toolbar at the top to apply a mesh to the trasform and you can drag the mesh vertices to be a little more subtle.
As for an actual tutorial - I kind of feel like I'm still learning myself. Let me get a couple more of them done and I'd be glad to share what I've learned.

The liquify tool will do this too. Easy to make it work, hard to make it work well.

It takes some getting used to, but yeah, it's what I use for reshaping most of the time.
