Original Image on Green Screen

Vampire Teeth

-- Image /Adjustments/ h8eSaturation todesaturate the skin tones

- used the lasso tool to cut out mouth

 - use Transform Cntrl -T to resize mouth and tilt to make angle of jaw

- remember to hit enter to complete the transformation		 - use a feathered edge brush

- Use a reduced Flow on the brush to allow natural brush strokes
- remember to ALT click the Clone Tool cursor on the sample image and then feather slowly in the new location - use clone stamp to sample ( ALT) the toads skin and then paint with feathered brush and Flow set low around 20 - in some cases the back ground looks better if it is blurred
