Beard Skin & Hair Help
Hi How do i get rid of uneven skin tones in this image and how do i retouch the hair and beard to look better. https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/41927512 Feb 09 17 08:42 pm Link I often even out skin tones with a solid fill layer set to color with the opacity at about 25% or less. A good way to bring out a beard is to double process the RAW and bring up the blacks, shadows and clarity, make a black mask on that layer, then reveal as much as you want, careful of going overboard with the clarity, or beard can get a little crunchy.

A good way to bring out a beard is to double process the RAW and bring up the blacks, shadows Double raw processing with different exposures and using the clarity slider are also easy ways to destroy the image. I wish Adobe never made sliders for clarity, shadows/highlights. If you can't get proper dynamic range convert using dcraw and then process with a master curve in PS.

For things like these photographers here really hate the word "retoucher" and don't trust anyone. Feb 10 17 08:57 am Link |
