Contest 149: Weight gain

There was an interesting link posted be Neal recently: a video showing a woman artfully slimmed using the Liquify filter.

And it made me wonder: what would it be like to try this process in reverse? Would it be harder, or easier? Let's try it with this image of a girl who clearly doesn't need to go on a diet. What would she look like if she gained a few pounds?

High res is here.

Turning thin women in bikinis fat!! Not exactly my idea of fun.

It should be tricky with those hands on her hips!

Yes, a bit tricky, but not too bad in the end.

I seem to be the first to post these days. I'm not seeing this as a competition...far from it...just in case anyone was wondering..

It's just that on Friday afternoons I have the time to do this

These Friday challenges look really fun, although I have never actually got around to doing one until now!

Here is my go... very subtle... mainly due to the fact that she didn't look quite human in my attempts to make her supersize! hehe will have to work on using the liquify tool more effectively!!

Hope to have a go on this one - a month's diet of cyber borgers and fries should do the trick

well mine is totally gross, and I think going to the delete pile!! Not so easy to go the reserve but maybe I'm giving her too many pounds! Those darn hands on the hips really complicate the matter.

Re: Contest 149: Weight gain

Sorry, couldn't resist! I thought I'd do a 'quick' jokey one. You wouldn't believe how long I had to search fruitlessly on Google for an image! Serves me right I suppose... (I promise to do a proper one eventually!)

Anyway, thanks to nechbi on flickr for the photo.

Two apologies.
The first is for re-using an old post and the second is to that poor girl who, I hope, never sees what we have done to her.

A fatter (so sorry, a larger) image is here
