Airbrushing

SillyWrong, 28 November, 2014 at 13:57 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 13

Have I WAAAAY over done it? As you can see, for some reason in this picture I appear to have some crazy dark bags under my eyes and terrible wrinkles (it wasn't like that in any of our other pics).

I have never used Paintshop before, but discovered I was able to play around with the image, and then once I started I couldn't stop!!! Is it way over done? Can you tell - should I start over again and keep it at a minimum!?

    I also added in some eyelashes as I wasn't happy with my makeup by MUA! Ha ha

    You do look a bit like you've had an eye lift ? but I think if you'd just put the second photo up I wouldn't have noticed

    Yeah, I think you may have gone a tad overboard, you look a bit cartoonish! Also you do not have terrible wrinkles Smiley smile

    ... and no-one has mentioned our stripey arms! I thought I'd not mention that to see if you noticed!

    I've started again. I'm easing off the paintbrush this time!

    I looked at the photos before reading what you'd written and I noticed the arms but not the face! I honestly think it looks ok, if you don't have the other to compare it to you'd never know.

    I think SW you look way nicer in the original - and in no way 'eye baggy' and I hadn't even noticed the arms in the original either!!! Also I think the photo shopped version kind of takes the 'smile' away from your face and doesn't look like you? It kind of means your eyes aren't 'smiling' so doesn't look so genuine? If that makes sense without sounding rude xx

    Step away from the photoshop!! Your wife married you, not some idealised air-brushed image. Stop it right now!!!

    Honestly SW, you look gorgeous in the original photo so put the insecurities aside and just enjoy your photographs as they are xxx

    Another vote for the original photo. Much more life & happiness in your face! No need to airbrush at all, you both look beautiful.

    It's like the worlds most subtle spot the difference! With the two photos next to each other I also think your smile looks happier and more genuine in the un-airbrushed one, it's the eyes that make it seem that way. That said if you hadn't put them up together I would have said both pictures are lovely, I don't think I'd have noticed you'd doctored them a bit....

    I did not know you could add yourself eyelashes on tho lol! I don't think you need them but it's kinda cool it can be done!

    You both look gorgeous, and happy. Don't mess with it by airbrushing you look great.

    (I go for a filter every time as it's much easier!)

    Final version - there was no way I was going to leave those bags on there, but you were right, I did turn myself in to a bit of a cartoon character with too much airbrushing!
