How to animorph?!

I was pretty inexperienced when it came to photoshop, and I ask a lot of questions about how to use it, but I think I am slowly working it out.

The first thing we needed to do was find two animal images to combine. I choose the ocelot and the eagle because I think they are quite intriguing animals and they have very different textures.

We mostly used the magnetic lasso tool and the soft eraser to manipulate the second image to fit neatly onto the first. Some people had to play around with the hue and saturation of the two images as well. The most difficult tool to use was the clone tool, and I ended up just doing all of my clones on new layers... because otherwise I made a big mess.

I found that the history tool was really helpful (after remaining adament that I would definitely NOT need it).

I think I will improve over time... Ocegles for the win!
