Thanks for the video. Great tips and learning experience You did way more steps than necessary tho.... I did it along with you and managed to get a more realistic look with fewer steps. But your guidance was essential.
Thanks a lot for all your useful tutorials !! I made a trial with another filter (got the name in french, but should be something like filters->map->move with map), where you use a black/white version of the face with the desired contrast. It gives better result, the flag following skin shapes in a more realistic way...
I ran into a problem: I can't select anything more when I applied Layer Mask (Floating Selection blocked me from other layers), so I can't select Mask to Selection option. Give me tips on how to fix these errors, and should I start over or install the new version of the app which is better?
Got there in the end, some terminology was hard to follow (3:45)ended up having to scale and move the flag image as it comes in twice the size of the main image, but he does go over that, so in the end, all is well.
