Image Manip?

So, my image manip skills are very limited. I can barely run photoshop. I was wondering if anyone here had the skill to help me out?

I've been looking to change Trickshot's look for a while. I finally decided that his look out of costume would be Jericho (Fallout 3), but there's one little problem. Jericho has a beard, Bullseye does not. I do not wish to use the movie adaption of Bullseye (because just looking at him makes me want to gouge my eyes out), and would also prefer for him to have a beard and a costume. I intend on using the image to the left primarily (as evidenced by my current av), and think that should be the picture to receive the beard.

For the specifics on said beard, I'm looking for something between stubble and Grisly Adams. Maybe a season 2 Rick Grimes (or early comics, if that's your thing). Or the Rough Survivalist beard, if you're familiar with the game of Jericho (pictured right)'s origin. Pretty much just a full beard without going mountain man or getting knarly. Trimmed, but full. As far as color goes, I'm thinking Dark Brown, the texture of the beard smoothed out to fit with the style of the image.

I've already got this posted on 2 image manip sites, but have yet to get any results. God, sometimes I really miss Victor Grey.

I fool around with images sometimes but beards are waaaaay beyond my level of skill.

@the_shogun: I'll just have to wait.

Fingers crossed.

Hey, do you think there's any photoshop talent in the Artist Show-Off section?

@gumflabica: I would imagine there is.

Victor Grey was awesome. Wish he'd come back...

I'm pretty good with recoloring pics in Gimp, but the one thing I can't do is recolor images black or white. Like, if I wanted to change a character's hair or costume to black.

@the_shogun:

*copies*

*pastes*

*waits*

@gumflabica: use pixlr website and use the shading tool with a opacity low enough to increment a beard on to the characters photo. Simple...

@palidan: Nice!

Sweet, thanks man.

Sorry to ask, I've been separated by my laptop for the rest of the day, do you think you could put it on from the edge of the goatee to the mask, noticeably thinner?

Thanks again, this is great man.

Might want to make it more of a dark brown too otherwise the av is gonna look like a big shadow on the bottom of his face.

@gumflabica: like a chin strap goatee?

@palidan: Kinda. Like, a goatee with stubble.

How's this one ? added some stubble plus the chin strap, and made it look more beard definition like.

@gumflabica:

@palidan: Nice! I'm using the sh*t out of this, thanks!

One more little nitpick though, could you make the facial hair on the upper lip darker? I liked the goatee part fine, I just wanted it lighter and with the stubble added.

@gumflabica

no worries, enjoy. I'm a perfectionist too.

@palidan: Nice man, thanks a ton. Will make it my new AV tomorrow.

glad u like .. :)
