I get asked a bazillion times how do I do it? So here's a hopefully useful answer for all of you. Truthfully what follows is simplified, I usually go to insane lengths to make something esthetically pleasing to me, but I'll let you discover that on your own. Right now this should BE instructive to those of you with little experience in morphing and probably enetertaining to those of you who excell, but have different styles than me.

The following posts will break down my 3 main morphing archetypes, although I freely combine all three on a regular basis, it still pays to seperate them for discussion:

1) Head swapping
2) Copy and Paste
3) Donor Boobs

Head swapping is easy to learn, yet more powerful than you think. It's the easiest way to plop your subject into a situation or local. If you find the

right body and hair match and the lighting is similar, it can be nearly undetectable!!

[ROUNDandHEAVY]

What I like to call Copy & Paste is working strictly with the image you have by copying, pasting and distorting the single image. This can work really

well if your subject has relativly even hues and contrast. This will fail the easiest if your suject has patterned clothing that betrays the expansion
but it automatically solves the problem of matching the color and contrast.

Thirdly What many refer to as donor boobs, pasting in large breasts from another image, sidesteps the danger of overstretching the original, or overusing the liquefy tool(yuk!) by having breasts that are already naturally large grafted on to your image. The only danger here is matching the color and contrast of your original image. To that end I have an enormous gallery of large naked breasts and spilling cleavage at all angles, sizes, shapes, colors and textures.

I hope this was helpful to you all.

Someone save this for the Tutorial Section that we have around here somewhere!

Who is the girl in the Copy & Paste section?

[ROUNDandHEAVY]

Busty Merilyn, I believe.

Hey, this has prompted me to re install photoshop!
Nice tutorial R'n'H!

[ROUNDandHEAVY]

Thank you Zod

I am pointing to the thread below as well, for when it drops off  page one, because it has some alternative tricks I find useful. And in honor of head swapping I give you JLH!!

Bob, Q-BE is gonna LOVE that morph

[Palomine]

 R&H, I just wanted to say, that this thread is interesting even to non-moprhers like myself... I had a good idea of the process, and of the popular techniques including the much-discussed 'shrink the girl', but it's fascinating to see it spelled out like this... makes me appreciate the morpher's art that much more. Thanks!  

[ROUNDandHEAVY]

Thanks Pallie, I never heard of shrink the girl, I'm gussing that's the converse of copy and paste. Shrink the girl instead of expand the boobs? Maybe?

yup, according to most it helps with resolution errors, but it's actually the same way all around

Sorry to bump my own thread, but 2 months and 900 views later, I'm wondering if anybody has found this useful and /or put any of it into practice??

Feedback would be useful as I am not sure what is still in my head and what actually made it down on to the post!!
