How I make pictures more fun to look at.

3. Deciding on Size

Yeah, I know that title sounds weird. But I'm the teacher here so I can say things however I please.

But before we go any further, SAVE YOUR ORIGINAL IMAGE. Whether it be as a Photoshop file (psd) or a jpeg, make sure to do it now. You want to make sure you always have a copy of the original. Never save directly over an original pic. You will regret it later.

Size is what this is all about. But it's very important to realize right away that every picture has limitations. You can't always do what you want to do. You may want to make the breasts as big as humanly possible, but it probably won't look right in the end. Don't go nuts just to blow people away. Work on making the boobs bigger, but more importantly make them look REALISTIC. Once you master that, you can slowly make the breasts larger and still look halfway authentic. Too many people try to just blow up a pic, cut the boobs out and paste them over the top of the original. There is so much more to it!

So don't shoot for Zena Fulsom at first, be content with say, a few mere cup sizes up. You will be ready to go larger before you know it.

So lets take a look at the picture I selected.

Certainly becoming, isn't she?

But we are not here to stare. There is work to do.

First, let's take a look at the pic I selected. Notice a few things. First of all, it's a fairly clean pictures. No grainy pixels, no objects in the way of the model, it's overall not too bad to work with.

Also note that this woman actually already has breasts. I can't explain to you all how hard it is to work with pictures of flat girls. With flat girls, you have to essentially create breasts for the woman. It's a pain in the ass and usually comes off as really fake. This woman has a decent set to start with, and we will be using what she already has as our guidelines for the larger ones.

Also notice that the lighting in the picture is pretty basic. No crazy shadows to deal with, and the picture isn't too light, and isn't too dark. It's a happy medium.

Another important thing is the size of the picture. It looks kind of small here, but I shrunk it down to fit this page. But regardless I can put this simply for you: larger pics rule. The larger a pic is, the more pixels you have to push. You want that. High resolution and a large size leads to a better looking morph if the artist doing it has talent.

Now it's time to fire up Photoshop.

First thing we have to do is get a larger version of her breasts to work with.

So we're going to lasso us some boobies! Take your lasso tool, and make a selection that includes her breasts. Make your selection much larger than it needs to be. Take a look at this example.

Notice right away that I basically selected all of her shirt. The reason for this is because I'd rather have extra to work with in comparison to less. You can always cut away undeeded areas later on.

I generally just kind of outline the torso shape a bit larger and go with that. All I really need to work with is there.

Now copy your selection.

The next thing you need to do is VERY important to remember.

Go to the edit menu, and do a PASTE INTO. Do not do a paste, it will stop this tutorial in it's tracks. Following directions is the a big part of this. Once you know it, you'll do it without even thinking.

Now take a quick look over at your layer palette. Doing the "paste into" made a new layer. What you see highlighted in blue is that very layer.

Note how it has two boxes in it instead of the one that your background has. The first one is a layer thumbnail. The second is the layer mask thumbnail. You'll work with both, so be aware that by clicking on them you can select them. In this picture I have the layer thumbnail selected. This is the actual copy of what I just pasted. It's her boobs!

The other box, the layer mask is just an outline of that. It blocks out everything else. Think of it as a piece of construction paper with a hole the shape of your selection in it.

Anyway there's something else to do here. You have to link these two together. Otherwise you will not be able to freely move her boobs around the picture to place them. So click in between the the little thumbnails. You will see layers linked indicator icon appear. I will picture it so you can see what I mean.

And there it is! The magic doo-dad! You always want to make sure this gets checked at this point. Otherwise, chaos can ensue.

Feel free to save your image now, but give it a new name so you don't erase the original. And save it as a .psd file. That way your layers are intact later on if you decide to go back to it.

Now, to make these boobs bigger. First of all, make sure you have the layer thumbnail selected and not the layer mask thumbnail. Now you want to go to the edit menu and then to Free Transform. Your picture should now look like this.

See those little squares all over? This is what you are going to use to enlarge the breasts. By clicking and dragging on one of the corner square. But what you really SHOULD do is hold down shift while doing this. It preserves the proportions. That way you aren't distorting the image as you make it larger.

Also try holding down your ctrl key when dragging. It will let you drage only the handle you are clicking on. I rarely use this, but sometimes it can really help in shaping the new breasts.

Now you can finally start enlarging her hooters. Give it a try! After you get the size you want, hit enter to save your new size. Attempt to go roughly the size I am choosing here. (Though it is optional.)

Sweet! You have new boobs for her! Now you're in business. I know they aren't attached to her yet or anything, but we'll get to that!

Onward to Placing!
