No shit.
We're all aware that a lot of what we see in magazines is touched up, cloned, airbrushed, etc.
A friend of mine works as a graphic artist around Europe, mainly in Sweden and Spain. Every now and then we like to update each other on our latest projects/jobs and transfer some of our work and concepts over the computer. He sent these shots a few years back while he was working at a magazine company. Obviously, a before and after shot with some serious and pretty seamless Photoshopping added in.
Here's what was done:
Lassoing; to trim out areas around the entire body.
Cloning; to stamp out any cellulite or imperfections around her skin. Colour correcting and airbrushing; to give her a sun-kissed glow.
A few touch ups to the face; the chin area in particular.
A bikini colour change.
Oh and let's not forget the removal of gushing water that was streaming out of her crotch. Yeah, that had to go too.
We're always shown the perfect after shot. I thought it was really cool to see the before with it for once.
Cheers.
