Challenge 830: Potus
By this time next week the results of the US election will be in, and we'll know which superannuated politician will inhabit the White House. It reminds me of the days when presidents were significantly younger - John F Kennedy was in his early 40s when he took office. If he hadn't been assassinated, JFK would be 103 this year (his mother Rose, it will be remembered, lived to 105). How might he look now? Here's your starting image, with high res courtesy of Wikipedia here.  |

I had a feeling that you might have some fun with the cutout...

Re: Challenge 830: Potus
This is what Photoshop 2021's new neural ageing filter makes of it. No real input from me except pulling the ageing slider to max. I tried successive applications to push it further but it doesn't work.

Re: Challenge 830: Potus
Ha, ha...confession time. My son has an app on his phone that makes people look older. I asked him to take a photo of JFK and run it through the app. He saved the first 1 and ran it again. I was so impressed I posted it immediately. So credit to the app developer. I love the app. If you run my face through it, it makes me look younger....   _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

The scarecrow works well. Hell of a model that is....well I hope it's a model...lol. A lot of food for thought there David. What am I going to do for the rest of the week. I'll have to dig out my steam drill. _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

Re: Challenge 830: Potus
Dennis - There's an app....??? Now you tell me.
Pushing JFK all the way to 103 is beyond me, but how about 85 or so... 
...or a youthful 103 if you cut me some slack. |

Re: Challenge 830: Potus
Nice Loyd. If it wasn't for that "Face app", I think I may have bowed out this challenge. You've at least gone the manual route. Well done. That app is called "Face app." You can change hair style, look younger, older, change gender. It's actually a lot of fun. Should have a look for it. _________________ The grass is greener on the other side of the fence because there is more $hit there. |

Re: Challenge 830: Potus
My iPad is too old to run it!!
I shall bow out on this one. I rarely do but I did on the last ageing challenge a while back as well. It just isn't my thing. I don't know where to begin. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

All I have is a 'flip phone'... and no iPad. The app is available for Windows PC and Mac but I didn't download it. |

Re: Challenge 830: Potus
Dennis I am amazed at the realistic result you got with your app. Well done! Like David, I don't much like aging people, so I am looking for a way of avoiding this week's task. |
