Head Angle Issues Solved

[James Shadle]

Just goofing around to see if I could do it. With a little time invested the results could be pretty cool.
I used the Transform, Skew function in CS5.

Had I invested the time, other Transform functions could be used to re-size the bill etc.

What ya think?

Hi James,

A lot of work. But I see the shadows as inconsistent. While a nice job of moving the head, there should be a shadow cast by the head. If you don't like the shadow from the head, then also remove the shadow from the leg so the shadows overall are more consistent. Making the lighting consistent so it does not look fake is extremely tedious in my opinion.

Agreed.
I didn't spend a lot of time on this. Shadow consistency is always a great way to catch a fake.
Thanks for the comment.

Oh. ya know, I think the original head shadow would still work for the head "twist". Not really that much difference in head position. (Please don't tell Artie I said that!!!)
