AlexTony Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Wow, excellent work on the latest faces Homer! Thanks Mucho Ed Brinkman was a gold glove shortstop for the Senators in the 60's & Tigers in the 70's. He had at one time the most consecutive errorless games at SS record. He played in the majors for 14 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your work is excellent. thank you. appreciate it as always. here's another one. a tough texture because the lack of a high def pic available, but it'll work. definitely alot better than giving him a generic face.

JP_Frost Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Homer, a quick cyberface question: How do you work around players' smiles in their headshots? I've free transforming and smudging, but that looks pretty stupid. What's your process to close the mouth? stupid happy players!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 i use the lasso tool to copy and paste the area. then use free transform to move and rotate as necessary. sometimes i have to use the warp function. if at any time i need to warp it or resize it, i make sure to sharpen the layer too, as it gets distorted. then the eraser to blend it in. after that, i'll use the clone tool very zoomed in to get rid of any creases that should be gone. then after that, select half of the mouth at a time, and rotate and move it around so there's no smile. you also have to take out the creases by the eyes that are caused by smiling. another key is to use the clone tool on the cheeks. typically when they smile, it causes a more high glare on the accencuated cheeks. it should be more even when not smiling. play with it though. it's not easey. i will usually end up cutting up several pieces before i get a respectable result.

Homer Posted July 29, 2007 Author Share Posted July 29, 2007 well good news first...i uploaded the latest update with the 7 new faces. bad news...i'm going on indefinite leave. turns out that it's not such a good idea to drop your laptop. and worse off is that if you have a good expensive one, it's real expensive to fix. being that i can only see a small portion of my once excellent screen, it's nearly impossible to make any more faces. with it being so expensive to replace the monitor, it doesn't lie high on my family's priority list to replace at the time being. so until i do find another option, this will be it for now. hopefully, only for now.

tebjr Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 About how much to replace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 not sure yet. haven't had too much of a chance to shop around, but assuming it's just replaceable, i think roughly 150-200 for the work. who knows how much parts will be though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzi22 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 can you hook up a monitor to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baseballfans Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 ozzi22 have a point. Usually your laptop does contain vga port U can connect to another PC monitor and you can see your file again. Unless the laptop is completely unusable. Your driver allow U to turn off your laptop monitor too so it will work on LCD or PC CRT monitor.

Homer Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 yeah it's possible, but i don't have a monitor, and i'm not gonna buy one just for that. if i'm gonna make a fix for this, it's going to fix the monitor itself. otherwise, i'm buying something i will have no use for later.
