I would like to see more tutorials like this, so I and others can practice photo manips without having to reinvent the wheel over and over.

Keep it all in one thread and we can have something of a resource that is on hand rather than having to hunt around for it.

As requested...

This is from my main thread.

This I made years and years ago back when I still used GIMP. Still valid though for basic morphing.

This two part tutorial was made by the legendary Killerc40-ii.

I learnt it from him so you can too!

Second part from above.

That's all I have but I'll happily write another tutorial if it gets people making their own stuff. Has anyone noticed how much I like people posting their own content? Lots!!

Anyway... Link me a pic, point, ask "How did you do that, oh unusually handsome deviant?" and I'll probably be able to tell you.

Some things like a few unbirth morphs and others are off the table though. Too complicated. Sometimes you've just got to keep trying random stuff until something sticks.

Oh dear lord, I have to disagree entirely, that is NOT the way to morph that. Using the paint brush to create anything new is only a last ditch option where it's probably advisable to discontinue the project rather that even attemp it.

>>1851 WHO!!!! appointed you the photoshop Czar.
just stfu and leave it all the PF, you poser.

>>1851
On any other day I'd agree with you but when it comes to huge belly morphs Killerc40-ii completely outstrips any of my methods. Needs must when the devil drives etc.

>>1853
Hmmm... Let me think. You did? I've had more 'MOAR' requests from you than anyone else here. Plus I'm not gloating over how much better I am; I'm trying to teach people so there's more variety, more content and a bigger active community for this site. Fucking DUH!!

>>1854
PF, i'm standing up for you...
dude's dissing your tutorial

>>1855
Well it's not my tutorial for starters so I'm not the one you should be standing up for. Plus if the the guy has any knowledge of photoshop himself then the chances are I'm going to listen to what they might say. I can't claim that all my tricks and techniques are self taught you know.

Lets see, PF contributed, and who else has....oh, right, nobody else yet. If someone has a better method, or better tutorial, I'd like to see more sharing and less bitching.

PF, thanks for contributing these tutorials. I at least appreciate it.

I agree with 1851. I would have tried to warp the whole original belly, not just the t-shirt. In my experience, drawing stuff into the image looks fake. But my experience is based on morphs with gimp, not photoshop.

>>1858
Depends how well it's done.

>>1680 is done using Killers method while >>1681 is the more common method. Plus the painted morph can be used on someone who wasn't pregnant in the first place.

I have had photoshop for going on, about 7 years. and used it every single day almost.

Painting the belly is a more versatile method compared to stretching the original picture. It opens up more pictures to being morphed and wont have that awful blurry stretch effect most warps,bloat tooled bellies do. Of course it can look more fake but that only depends on your skills with painting it, the more you do the better they look as your skills improve.

Im not that skilled with painting exactly, but my morphs have gotten better and better with this method. And if i was still doing them i would be getting a lot better.

I know every tool and every function of Photoshop and i can tell you that in the hands of an experienced painter you would see some really darn good morphs.

The only thing I could suggest is that you NEVER ERASE! Use a layer mask. On the layers panel, near the bottom there's a button for layer mask. It's like erasing but your data still stays there.

What this guy says. Or you can just use a copy of the background as you're lowest layer, leaving the true background untouched in case you cock up.

That's a good point and a better way to do it. The only reason the Tutorial doesn't feature it is because i do a morph in about 5 minutes and it just works faster without extra details, at least for me anyways.
