CAT EYES

Step 1 - Glistening Cat Eyes
Learn how to make anyone's eyes into cat eyes (and sharpen their fingernails too).

So we have this lovely lady that we want to give cat eyes, and the cat we're taking them from.



We start by using the Pen Tool, and tracing around the eyes.







Open the picture of the cat whose eyes you want to steal, and do the same to it.



Hold CTRL and click on one of the shapes' layers you just created on the cat.  This will make that shape into a selection.  Hide the yellow eye layers and click on the layer with the cat's face.  Copy the eye from the cat.



Hold CTRL and click on the appropriate eye of the woman (the yellow layer to form the outline).  Click on the layer with the woman's face on it.  Go to Edit>Paste Into and this will paste your cat eye into a layer mask of the woman's eye.



Repeat this process for the other eye.



Resize the woman's new cat eye CTRL+T and skew it and scale it as much as you need to make it fit into the opening of the woman's eye. Repeat for the other side.



Now select the Burn Tool.  You want it on Midtones and at around 10%.  We don't want to "burn" the skin too quickly, we just want to consistently darken around the eyes, like the cat's eyes are.





Now do the same thing around the outside of the eyeballs themselves, making them look a little more like they belong in her sockets.



Once you're finished with that, there is a piece of hair that falls in front of her left eye (actually her right eye, but on our left).  Trace around that piece of hair with a Lasso tool, just inside the outer edges of the hair.  Select the left eye's layer, and hit the delete key.



Take the Eraser, with a Soft Round brush, an opacity of about 50%, and a very small scaled brush and go around the outer edge of the lock of hair carefully, so it blends nicely.
