How to Swap Faces on Photoshop
Before you swap faces, make sure that at least the direction of faces should be same, not necessarily 100 percent.
- Open the picture on Photoshop whose face you want to swap.
- Open the other picture on a new tab of Photoshop with which you want to swap the face.
- Go to Tools Bar and select the Lasso Tool.
- Select the face only, not ears and hair.
- Start from any point and end at the same point.
- Go to Edit tab and click on the Copy.
- Go to other tab.
- Open the Edit tab again & click on the Paste or press Ctrl + V.
- Right click on the face that you have just pasted and click on the Free Transform. You can do it from Edit tab as well.
- You can drag, rotate, increase & decrease the size of the face.
- Now drag the face over the other face. Adjust the size & direction.
- Decrease the Opacity, so that you can see the background face.
- Adjust the eyes of both the faces.
- You can see that I have adjusted the eyes almost perfectly.
- Now increase the Opacity. I have increased it to 90%. After that press the Enter, so that it will be placed there.
- Select the Layer 1, by default it would have been selected.
- Go to the bottom & click on the Add layer mask icon.
- Go to Tools Bar and select the Brush Tool. Choose the size of the Brush accordingly.
- Click and Drag the Brush to remove the unnecessary/extra parts of top face. As you drag the brush the background behind those parts will appear. Normally you start from sides of the face.
- It is better to zoom the picture when you edit because it becomes more clear and easier. Press Ctrl + to zoom.
- Here is the final output. Yasir Shah has been transformed to Messi, & Messi is now a Pakistani cricketer :).
