Chris Smith posted a solution for zit removal a while back. It may help you. Here’s the post.

As I sometimes tease Eric here at the office: “Of course she’s beautiful, Eric, she’s the best looking woman that Photoshop can make — but don’t wait around for her, because she only exists on-screen.” Aw, the “babes of Photoshop.” =:^P

Paul Simon said it all so well so long ago when he sang: “If I took all the girls I knew when I was single and brought them all together for one night. I know they’d never match my sweet imagination and everything looks best in black and white. Kodachrome gives us the nice bright colors and makes the world a sunny day, oh yeah! Oh Momma don’t take my Kodachrome away.”

With a little bit of time and twiking, it should look like this.

I simply used the Remove Grain effect and Magic Bullet’s fantastic Look Suite. But it looked great even before I applyed MB. I’m not Andrew Kramer, but hey, 🙂 Looks great anyways.

Good luck!

Didn’t you just admit to me that he actually says “Everything looks WORSE in black and white” ???

However, I do know a guy who would consider it a sin to Photoshop out a girl’s freckles. Me, I consider them optional, as long as she has that wonderful red hair that’s so often associated with the freckles.

I read an imterview recently with the Exec Producer of Battlestar Galatica, in which he talks about a flash back sequence they tried to do with Edward James Olmos. In it, he claims they tried to use post-production to digitally ‘youth’ him but the results couldn’t be used.

Doesn’t really help you, but sometimes it’s nice to know even the big boys can’t fix everything. Given the rugged features of EJO it’s not that surprising really.
