Kid looks awfully familiar with her hair up in a different style doesn't she? Done in photoshop ^^

I don't know...

I mean, Debra's hairstyle is far more voluminous and erratic than Kid's new hairstyle (and I'm not just being picky with the hair color)

Nice Photoshop work.  I'd like to know your process.

Hah, I don't know, that idea popped up suddenly. :idea:

Maybe
1. They are both designed by Akira Toriyama。
2. The red hairband/flower.
3. The right hand.

Thanks! :mrgreen:

Hmmm they are rather in the same pose aren't they? Haha.

My process? Its long haha:

The first thing I did was throw up a picture of Schala in photoshop. I copied it and pasted to make a new layer of her and messed with the hue saturation. I have several different pictures laying around of blonde Schala however none seemed to be colorful enough. Like so:


So I took these two pictures and threw them in photoshop. i color burned the 'red' head Schala on top of the blonde Schala. It gave me this:



That was the fun part haha, that was just getting the hair color. After that I took this picture of Kid: and threw Schala's head on it.


 It was very ugly:

I couldnt get the color of Schala's face to match Kid's body so I got angry and just copied the picture and threw two of the same picture on there in black and white. The one on top I changed the opacity to 40-50 and began coloring the skin. after that I erased the black and white clothing and hair.

The layer that was just coloring looked like this:


scary right? You can still see some of the black and white bits from the other layer I hadnt erased yet.


I'm sure there was probably a much easier way to do it >.> because most of the time I dont know what i'm doing anyway because i'm a noob at photoshop. haha, but the out come looks good right?

Very cool! It's amazing how Schala's face on Kid's body changes both characters' personality so...

Thanks!

It is very interesting Kid and Schala are practically the same person but they both seem to have completely different personalities.

I suppose they didn't give Kid the hair style because it would have given it away haha.
