just wanted to brag. nothing else. i'm a photoshop god. too bad the photographer can't fight his way out of his own shadow.

Not bad, whitey!


Now digitally remove the giant check and have them all throwing gang signs and I'll get you something nice from SDCC.

that was no more than 10 minutes. i did it a while ago, but was just back on that site for the first time in a bit today and impressed myself so i figured i'd put the two of them together and show off.

can't remember exactly what i did, but i think i basically just made a color range selection of each shadow and played around with the colors/levels/saturation/contrast until it looked as natural as possible. when putting them together just before i noticed i had grayed out a bit of the underlines on the check in the secondary shadow (to the left of the main shadow) but it wasn't noticeable at the display size, plus i wasn't too worried about that. they just wanted to get rid of the shadow as best i could in the short timeframe provided.
