royallypwned Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I'm good at a few things in photoshop, but that is not one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdiamond Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I wouldn't say it's that easy of a job unless you make the helmet huge and out of proportion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeysc23 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Yeah I definitely wouldn't say easy job. I could do it but as mentioned the helmet would be huge and out of proportion and on top of it quite time consuming as you would have to manually cut out the trophy and fill in the gaps where the helmet doesn't cover the same space as the Baylor uniform. Maybe not super hard but definitely could be a couple hours (at least with my photoshop skill) so time consuming. I would probably tackle it by the following steps: 1. Use lasso tool to cut out heisman trophy from Baylor picture. - Probably want to leave Heisman base in there as it would be way too much area to clone and replicate. 2. Use cloning tool to fill in parts of Baylor uniform that are missing. 3. Use lasso tool to cut out redskins helmet. - make sure to eliminate all parts in between the helmet grill. - Select, inverse selection to select helmet and put it on it's our transparent canvas 4. past onto Baylor picture. 5. Resize using transform tool. 6. Clean up any remaining spots the helmet doesn't cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royallypwned Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The resizing of the helmet picture should be the first thing you do. I mean, it's the easiest thing of the whole process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do that last. Easy to drop it into the Baylor picture after you've removed the trophy to determine how big you can make it with the transform tool without it looking weird but covering as much of your cloned negative space as possible.

Henry Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I'll take a crack at it. Do you have a shot of that sweatshirt anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Ok, here's what I got. I left it on the base because otherwise it's too low (and more work.) Also, if you want it centered under RG that's gonna take a lot of work. Also, if the strap looks weird I can take it out ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavarleap56 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 I'll take a crack at it. Do you have a shot of that sweatshirt anywhere? no I dont have a shot of the sweatshirt. I tried to watch some youtube videos on how to add the pics together but I only have the trial version so not all the tools. In the videos the guy was pretty quick working with the layers and pen patch tool and I figured outthe layering and placement but the patch option is not available. ---------- Post added January-6th-2012 at 05:06 PM ---------- The shading is off a little, but here you go: lol that is funny..

Here is one I did in a few min at work with another pic. Don't have time to mess around with the other one at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdiamond Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 This is solid but you might want to either put in the Baylor letters or take them off completely, that right side of the U looks out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
