My Squadron Commander is getting ready for his change of command and we are doing a bit of a roast. What I'm looking for is someone able to PS the Brokeback Mt. movie poster w/ his and the Director of Operations photos. I've provided their pictures at some decent angles. My commander is the small bald guy w/ glasses and I'd like him in the foreground and the DO in the background. Thanks for any help :yesway:

It's called years of playing around and discovering new and better ways and tips and tricks. Not to take anything away from their work, but this is a relatively easy thing to do.

Find pictures that are close to the same angle, size them correctly. Usually with something like this, I create a copy of the original, erase where the face is leaving the hat and collar, put that layer above the new face, then manipulate the new face to match the position of the old one. Also using the hue/saturation tool you can get the same skin "tone" of the original poster.

thats exactly it. You work with PS everyday, you get used to it :D

I think I spent 15-20 minutes on the poster above; this one in particular was pretty easy because punker supplied good pictures.

1. Did a rough cut on the face
2. Copied it to a new layer over the original poster
3. Erased general areas around the face
4. Moved in to position
5. Turned down opacity to see where the collar and hat were on the original and erased around that
6. Cleaned up/detail
7. Played with contrast and hue/saturation to match.

Then the same for the second pic.
