Perfect Eyebrows Through Retouching
If I shoot a model who doesn't have that perfect eyebrow look, how would I go about creating that look while also making it look realistic? Here's an example: https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/30112771 I understand that in the sample photo, the model might actually have gotten her eyebrows done in that style. But I want to replicate that look for models whom I photograph who don't have that style going. I know that cloning in order to shape the eyebrows is an option, but I'm inquiring as to creating eyebrows. That scenario when the model's eyebrows are really thin and you want to create eyebrows to fill the gap and achieve that look. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm asking because I'm setting up a shoot with someone who has thin eyebrows and I'd like to fill them in realistically to achieve that sort of a look. Of course getting a MUA is an option, but she insists on doing her own makeup but she's unskilled on the eyebrow part.

I don't know why I didn't consider transplanting eyebrows. However, I did buy a wacom tablet yesterday and spent a lot of the day practicing retouching with it. I didn't realize how easy it'd be to just draw eyebrows to fill them in. I guess I can now figure out how to replicate that perfect eyebrow look the MUAs do when they add highlights around the perfectly arched eyebrows to make them standout more.

Here is an fast example, I can think of, where I did it: http://kristiana1990.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d5kz3pq Dec 20 12 02:01 am Link Christiana1990 wrote: Great work.
