Studio : 200706 A 3-page spread that only needed the folds corrected. |
|
Studio : 200706 Some more red letters on her throat and shoulder. |
Studio : 200706 Some red letters on a black background. |
Studio : 200706 Harder than it looked due to badly feathered edges that didn't match the original background, with discoloured hair, and I had to guess at how much of her back was exposed near her waist. |
Vogue : 200701 Thin lettering that was easy to remove. |
Vogue : 200701 Only a handful of small words. |
St John : 2006 3-10px gap and mis-matches in the shadows and mid-tones. |
Eve : 200605 Fiddly messing around with blurred strands of hair. |
DT : 200605 A jagged gap of 4-20px that went over some complex highlights and patterns. |
DT : 200605 I wish they were all this simple. Well, probably not, otherwise I'd never learn anything! |
DT : 200605 1-8px gap and minor hue mis-matches. |
Vanity Fair : 200603 Just minor text in various places. |
GQ : 200507 Some wood grain replaced, otherwise fairly simple. |
GQ : 200507 Stray hairs over a coloured block, and shading over the text. |
Fabric : 200506 10px gap and minor hue mis-matches. |
Film Review : 200412 The bar-code and advert bubbles were covered with a scaled-up copy of a much smaller image-scan of the same photo from another magazine, and the background was replaced with another smaller (and heavily compressed ) version of the image that also reinstated most of the stray hairs that had been cut off, with both being colour/contrast/lightness corrected and hue-shifted to fit, and compression artifacts removed. |
Allure : 200411 Letters replaced with a gradient, and blended. |
Allure : 200411 2-4px gap and word-removal over a patchy background. |
Hotdog : 200406 Another background replacement with some repair work on her arm, but the moire patterns were as printed rather than caused by the scanning, and the outline of her hair was very solid. |
Empire : 200406 Simple background replacement and word removal. |
Empire : 200406 As with GQ : 200309, a nice image ruined with garish print. Some of it was easy, but replacing the mesh and its varying shadows makes this the hardest one I've done so far. |
GQ : 200404 Apart from replacing the panel moulding beneath the i's dot, this was straightforward. |
GQ : 200404 Full background replacement and reconstruction of the shadow. |
Vogue : 200403 The first double-pager where the images actually overlapped and were aligned perfectly; the high & mid-tones were also exposed similarly, though the shadows needed slight adjustment. |
Marie Claire : 200401 2px gap & hue correction between pages. |
Marie Claire : 200401 12px gap and new shadows over two gradients (each side was different top-to-bottom), and a lot of print smear clean-up beside and beneath her chin. |
Cosmopolitan : 200309 Major surgery on the calf and knee due to a 20px gap, not helped by hue mis-matches. |
GQ : 200309 Not as tricky as it might have been due to the dress-edges being almost straight. |
GQ : 200309 Some very simple, the rest extremely time-consuming recreating individual hairs. |
GQ : 200309 The first attempt was a full background replacement with two overlapping gradients, but matching the grain was a problem; this uses the original shading, though there is a lot of dark noise in the upper right corner. See also Empire : 200406 for a similar image. |
B : 200309 Just a few words removed. |
Total Film : 200309 Her hair was badly removed by the publishers to accommodate an unnecessary border, and was redrawn to suit what was left. |
Metro Life : 20030815 Horrendous purple title across her forehead, hair that fizzled out at the edges, and the texture of her skin beneath the 'O', made this particularly awkward. |
Ice : 200211 1¼ page join (which actually matched), and minimal removal. |
Ice : 200211 1¼ page join (which actually matched), and minimal removal. |
Vogue : 200605 Perfect alignment with only some hue-shifting on the carpet and thin lettering. |
|
Marie Claire : 200510 Perfectly matched across an overlapping join, so just a few pixels needed cloning. |
Elle : 200510 Extreme hue shifts across join with 3-5px gaps. |
Marie Claire : 200510 'Unstuck photo' effect corrected. |
DT : 200509 An almost perfect join with separate text. |
Room Service : 200509 A lot of guesswork for what was behind the red block of text, and some cleaning-up of cloned tiles. |
Room Service : 200509 Just a gap of a few pixels; colour-match was OK across the page-break. |
DT : 200509 Virtually the same as the Arena 200408fg below, but in colour, and with a variable gap of 2-7 pixels. |
FHM : 200506 Block of text removed and skin recreated, ring replaced from another version of the image. (Why was it taken out in the first place?!) |
Arena : 200408 5-10px gap and hue mis-match. |
Arena : 200408 Hue mis-match, some small misc text, and a large yellow block covered with cloned rug & shaded. |
