trauch10 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I am trying to find an efficient, accurate way to take a photo of someone with misaligned or misshapen teeth and quickly reshape them to an idealized version and shade. I have played with the pen tool and have not yet been able to get a nice looking solution. I am certain there is a simple sequence to follow to achieve this, I just haven't figured out what it is. thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Since you mentioned the Pen Tool, I assume you are trying to create vector shapes for the idealized versions of the teeth. It would be very difficult to make them look realistic because you would have to use a combination of gradient fills & probably multiple shapes for the ridges & highlights. This would be much easier to do using raster images & the raster based tools in Affinity Photo. You did not mention which app you have, Designer or Photo. Please do so.

dutchshader Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 i guess the easy way is to find a picture of a matching mouth and replace the misaligned teeth.

carl123 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Easier if there is just one tooth missing But in general just a combination of... 1. The liquify persona 2. Creating new teeth by freehand selection of an existing tooth and duplicating and resizing it 3.Cloning Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum.

So if I have a template for ideal, I can simply cut that out and insert it on to the unideal smile? I think I get what you are saying, id need to figure out the steps.

Would you be able to put any more description of how you used each tool? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
