whoa! cool to see other people do this stuff too... (that justifies my weirdness right? sure...)
When I worked as a graphic designer, a couple of the other designers and I would have contests doing this EXACT thing, only morphing ppl into animals... see WSU has the largest vet/med school in the NW, and annually we had to make slides of all the sorority rushees (I know, rough huh?)... all these pre-frosh girls dressing up as trendy/stereotypically greek as possible, because a good part of their selection process is their picture attached to their application... and someone these girls have the audacity to complain about being stereotyped, HAHAHAHA!
Anyways, Sorority Girls + pix of animals = lots of time and fun with photoshop and Kai's/blackbox plugins
I'll try to find where I put those and post them
We were getting really good, u couldn't tell it was a photochop unless u zoomed in to 300% or so
(lighting is EVERYTHING)
