Photoshop-Swapping heads with bodies

[ranzy]

Hey, im trying to swap a head of someones into someone elses body, i have already got all the fitting and that, but i cant do match up the skin colours , is there anyway you can like eyedrop one skin colour and then match the other skin colour with it but like all of the face?

Last time i checked this isn't even related to hardware so why post it in the desktop computers section?

There isn't a way to fill it because it isn't a constant colour, if that makes sense.

Like, if it was all the same shade red you could do it, but because it isn't you can't, sorry.

You can though, use the pippet tool to get the colour of the skin near the head you put on and use the brush tool and paint on the colour slightly and then do the same with the head so they merge and there isn't an obvious join.

I don't know if that makes any sense to you

Isn't there a blend tool?

I'll have a look now.

Nope sorry m8, i was sure of it but there isn't!

I would use the smudge stick or a blur on a weak setting to blend them.

Well it looks like the easiest thing to do would be to contact the one with the lighter complexion and tell them to get a darker tan

You make it sound as if it can't be done, which simply is not true. Now, mind you, I know very little about photoshop, and could not do it myself, but I am sure that someone experienced could do it seamlessly.

Send me the headshot and bodyshot and if both are a good resolution (1024-768 or greater with the initial headshot bigger than the bodyshot) then I'll do it.

pm is best. imageshack the pics.

Sounds as if it cannot be done? Of course it can!

If he wants I'll happily have a go at it

it's all about experimenting... select the layer you want to equalize, and play with the color tools in Adjustments. I figured it out myself, can't really explain it 'cause I never use the same ones.
