Picture search results for: distort

Ok, well I didn't win the last contest, but I gave it my all in this one, tell me what you think, don't be afraid to criticize me :P. I won't take offense, I promise ;D. If I do a Tut, it wont be exact, It's very hard to duplicate my warping that I did late late late at night.

It involved a lot of warping of the cards though. I took a pic ( see source) of a humming bird and used the Quick Selection tool to get it out of its pic, and flipped it the right way (for my picture).

I then used the Crtl (or CMD)+J method of replicating a background onto the hummingbird, and added some layer styles.

I replaced the Cards Color, and I couldn't do black for some reason, but I'm not to upset by it.

In the original, the cards were black though, and everything was less pronounced.

Monkey!!! Took a while, had to erase the monkey, distort the back, correct odd parts, add the monkey again, color correct, warp, merge down, warp again, liquify, and finally save!!!
