I came across a great Photoshop video tutorial today demonstrating how to properly use the liquify filter to enhance images of people.  This guy does a great job of showing a little about what each tool does, and how simple it is to use it.  I’ve stuck to the basics up until now, but this tut has helped me learn a lot.  You really can do anything to people with this tool…make their butt larger or smaller, their boobs, their arms and legs, eyes, face, twist their head, even.  Yes you can become a digital plastic surgeon!  Now, obviously we don’t all have this much time to invest into perfecting every single image.  In stock, buyers want what’s real as well, not just perfection.  Keep that in mind, but have fun playing with this sweet tool.

Below are a few other videos demonstrating how far you can go with the liquify filter.
