==Photomanipulations==
 +
 +
Photomanipulation is one technique often used to create transformation art. Typically, this involves the artist taking one or multiple stock images, and using various programs and tools to change the images such that the subject of the resulting image appears to be undergoing, or appears to have undergone, a transformation.
 +
 +
Different artists make use of different techniques to achieve the appearance of transformation. The simplest such technique is colour alteration - this is often used for images representing transformation to stone, for instance. Another common simple technique is direct pasting of part of one image onto another image, often resulting in a human with an animal face or other, similar images.
 +
 +
Photomorphing software can also be used to achieve photomanipulation effects. Such software can be used to produce an image that appears to be a blending of two source images, but distorted so that the resulting image looks somewhat reasonable. This is often used in muscle transformations and some animal transformations. A variant of this uses the "warping" capability of such software to distort the shape of the image.
 +
 +
More complex techniques exist, and tutorials can be found that can instruct budding artists in how to perform these techniques, often focused on the use of photoediting software such as Photoshop and GIMP. Two examples of such tutorials are shakealicious' [http://shakealicious.deviantart.com/art/Kitty-Tutorial-part-I-65569284 Kitty Tutorial] for Photoshop and Aielyn's [http://aielyn.deviantart.com/art/GIMP-TF-Photomanip-Tutorial-83938605 TF Photomanip Tutorial] for GIMP, both found on DeviantArt.
 +
 +
There are a number of places where photomanipulation TFs can be found.

Photomanipulations

Photomanipulation is one technique often used to create transformation art. Typically, this involves the artist taking one or multiple stock images, and using various programs and tools to change the images such that the subject of the resulting image appears to be undergoing, or appears to have undergone, a transformation.

Different artists make use of different techniques to achieve the appearance of transformation. The simplest such technique is colour alteration - this is often used for images representing transformation to stone, for instance. Another common simple technique is direct pasting of part of one image onto another image, often resulting in a human with an animal face or other, similar images.

Photomorphing software can also be used to achieve photomanipulation effects. Such software can be used to produce an image that appears to be a blending of two source images, but distorted so that the resulting image looks somewhat reasonable. This is often used in muscle transformations and some animal transformations. A variant of this uses the "warping" capability of such software to distort the shape of the image.

More complex techniques exist, and tutorials can be found that can instruct budding artists in how to perform these techniques, often focused on the use of photoediting software such as Photoshop and GIMP. Two examples of such tutorials are shakealicious' Kitty Tutorial for Photoshop and Aielyn's TF Photomanip Tutorial for GIMP, both found on DeviantArt.

There are a number of places where photomanipulation TFs can be found.
