 What I did here, was took the Hollywood Blondes Pillman's face and upper body, gave him different hair, and put it on the WCW/ECW Benoit's lower body, and swithed the colors to red. |

Well...this isn't your third photoshopped figure...because you say you don't have PS  Anyway, the whole attire looks just painted over the picture, and not like it's actually on the figure itself. Since I don't know the program you use, I can not really help you out there. And the head is blurry, and looks like there was little-to-no editing done. The skin tone is also way off. |

Since I don't know the program you use, I can not really help you out there. And the head is blurry, and looks like there was little-to-no editing done. The skin tone is also way off. Well, it's a free program I got called GIMP. It's weird, because when I select a portion to change the color using hue-saturation, if the original color is black or white, it colors only the area around it, the the black portion stays black. To counter this, I had to dodge (lighten) the hell out of the tights in order to get them to change color. And even then, because the original attire was only tights and not pants, the legs turned a different color than the tights. The head is blurry for two reasons. The first, being that I wanted to do short haired WCW-esque Douglas, and couldn't find that great of a picture. The second, is that I actually "gaussian blurred" the head to try and take the sharp facial features that made it look like a picture. And to get the skin tones right, I have to dodge/burn the head and the arms a certain number of times, or they'll still be off. Not sure if Photoshop uses the same terminology or whatnot that I used, but hopefully I gave enough information. |

Nice recolor, but what did you do to the boots? I got the picture from the figure database on the main site. It had the logo right across the boots, so I tried smudging, then blurring. |

Not bad. The attire recolor is good. It's clean, although the color is kind of weird to me. Maybe lower the saturation? I'm not sure. And the logos on the tights/pads are good, but need to be blended in better. Especially the knee pad logos. Try change the opacity. The head...is just a picture of Billy Gunn slapped on. Or atleast..that's what it looks like to me. Edit your heads. Use tools like blur, smudge, dodge and burn to make the heads look like figures. If your totally stuck, check out dielawn's tutorial he added to the main page: wfigs.proboards48.com/index.cgi?board=pswrestlingfigs&action=display&thread=85247And the skin tone is alright, but could be matched a bit better it seems. EDIT: Ah, crap...I forgot you use GIMP. Well...try looking around on GIMP for tools like the ones I mentioned. I don't use GIMP, so I guess I can't really help you.  |

Head is an improvement, although it's weird how the top half and bottom half of his face don't match. But, the attire is worse The logos are TOO blurry, and now his stomach has some green on it. I like the color of the attire better, though. |
