Well dondon all I can do is ask the nice man if he can do .....

well it wouldn't be much of a tutorial really, all I did was take the pic of the doll, placed it over the pot, then through hue/saturation (CTRL/CMD-U), checked the "colorize" box and adjusted so it was about the same red. Then I masked away some of the areas. I likely tweaked the masked image with curves, trying to adjust the contrast so it blended well. That is about it for add the face.

As far as the text goes, I can not rember for sure, but I used the "warp text" command to get it as close as I could, then the transform tool to tweak it. After that I seem to remember duplicating the text layer, I then rasterized the text copy layer and used a bit of air brush to make it look a bit more 3D.

That is about it, so in a nutshell I laid the face layer over top, masked out bits, adjusted contrast and colour to blend and added the text. Oh yes, I also used the lasso tool to select each eye individually so I could tilt them, to make the face look a bit dozey.

Here is another version with the face in a different position. I had to play around with altering the pot's lid, but finally went with the other version.


Hope this helps...and thanks for the kind words:)
