Battle #33 - VOTE NOW! | 50,000 Subs Battle | All Winners | Hall of Fame


About Photoshop Battles

A subreddit for people to use photo manipulation software to create new images.

Official weekly battles are held where entries are removed for the first 24-hours to give an opportunity for more detailed submissions.

Battle winners pick the photo for the next battle (only upvotes are counted) and all entrants are given subreddit flair.


Rules for Submissions:

I. No Requests or Questions

  • Requests, such as "Please photoshop me or my friend", can be posted to /r/picrequests.

  • Questions, such as "Where else could he be?", or "What else could she be sticking in her mouth?" are not permitted.

II. Titles

  • Your title must be descriptive. Please accurately describe the subject of the photo.

  • No cliches such as "this has potential", "lets see what you guys can do", or "make this epic".

III. Image content

  • Images must be at least 500x500 pixels.
  • No technically low-quality images. Focus, framing, lighting, etc. are important.
  • No links to facebook.
  • NSFW tags must be used generously.

Submissions that do not follow the rules will be subject to removal by the moderators.

If you notice a submission that violates the rules, please report it to the mods, and send us a message letting us know why it was reported.


Voting

  • Please vote based on quality of work. Lazy shops shouldn't win just because they made you laugh. You can still vote funny stuff (we can't control you) but keep in mind that people spend lots of time making some really good submissions and deserve as much recognition as the next guy.

  • Downvoting constructively, in threads, is recommended.

  • Please do not downvote submissions because they do not have obvious potential. An image that does not have an easy punchline may be the most creatively inspiring to others.

Please report inappropriate content to the mods.

Terrifying

[–]TmanV 1 point2 points ago

Beautiful! The shop that is...not the freak kid 4 year old with a goatee and face tattoo...

[–]Daanando 341 points342 points ago

It's nothing God can't fix.

edit: fixed a minor smudge.

[–]Unbroken_Circle 31 points32 points ago

This makes it well creepier. Good job.

[–]nawts 13 points14 points ago

Lets put a smile on that face.

[–]ListenChump 6 points7 points ago

I attempted the animation request below.

Spiffy313: "Cross-eyed, smiling and nodding, I don't know, licking his nose?"

[–]sorrythisisawkward 0 points1 point ago

That. is. terrifying. and. perverse.

[–]jokygabble 1 point2 points ago

"Why so serious?"

[–]gyarrrrr 235 points236 points ago

Dunno why, but it made me think of this

Alaskan Gothic

Alaskan Gothic 2: Let's get Goth

Edit: Extended version.

[–]iruber1337 4 points5 points ago

I could totally see this as a poster.

[–]gyarrrrr 2 points3 points ago

Haha, well if anyone wants to print it (or the extended version below), go right ahead.

Not sure what Jason Barnum, Kimberly Vlaminck or indeed the estate of Grant Wood would have to say on the matter, though.

[–]MrLaughter 3 points4 points ago

shouldn't the missus match?

[–]gyarrrrr 3 points4 points ago

I think it's actually the daughter, but I've given it another go for you

[–]Schwarzwind 173 points174 points ago

He kinda reminded me of that realistic doll of Beavis, so I did this.

edit: original

[–]Daanando 56 points57 points ago

Seriously Jesus f'ing Christ.

[–]66xsseldoG 32 points33 points ago

LONG LIVE DICKBUTT

[–]TwoLegsJoe 11 points12 points ago

I've never seen a thread on here without Dickbutt. I'm 100% okay with that.

[–]Daanando 9 points10 points ago

[–]Alk3 18 points19 points ago

I prefer duckbutt personally.

[–]evil1eye 0 points1 point ago

that looks more like ducksack to me

[–]isthatsarcasm 52 points53 points ago

[–]CreativeSobriquet 10 points11 points ago

aww, now he looks sad :-(

[–]MrLaughter 1 point2 points ago

He weeps for the plight of mankind

[–]ipeeoncats 1 point2 points ago

His eyes remind me of the cat from shrek.

[–]Karatzillion 49 points50 points ago

[–]Karatzillion 2 points3 points ago

How do you make the link the title aswell? New to reddit..

[–]random123456789 7 points8 points ago

[Text](Link)

No space inbetween brackets.

[–]Karatzillion 5 points6 points ago

Thank you!

[–]beargarebear 14 points15 points ago

If you are new to reddit you probably don't have RES it is great and has formatting help when you post. I highly recommend installing it.

[–]TheInsaneDane 6 points7 points ago

New to reddit. Redditor for 7 months and 3 days. Wat.

[–]Karatzillion 4 points5 points ago

Yes. My friend signed me up when we lived together in France, 7 months and 4 days ago. I haven't used it once until now!

[–]Jrodkin 1 point2 points ago

Well either way, you will never get you soul back welcome!

[–]Autistic_Buiscit 0 points1 point ago

Go wild. I'm sorry is that taunting you?

[–]Karatzillion 0 points1 point ago

That depends, is your intention of sending it taunting me? In any case it's helpfull! Thank you!

[–]Autistic_Buiscit 0 points1 point ago

Now go! Spread the annoyance of lovely, I mean lovely formatting. (Done without RES because I'm pro)

[–]Karatzillion 0 points1 point ago

Thank you! I will!

[–]Autistic_Buiscit 0 points1 point ago

You mean 'I will.' FTFY

[–]Karatzillion 0 points1 point ago

I WILL!

[–]Autistic_Buiscit 0 points1 point ago

And so it begins. Good luck young one.

[–]Karatzillion 0 points1 point ago

Thank you master elder.

[–]Karatzillion 0 points1 point ago

Also done without RES. I'm learning!

[–]buckhenderson 0 points1 point ago

i was kind of expecting that to be an /r/gonewild link

[–]ICantDoBackflips 0 points1 point ago

On the lower right side of the text box there's a button that says "formatting help."

This might be useful to you.

[–]Karatzillion 0 points1 point ago

Thank you!

Even nicer...?

...nope, still creepy. It's the eyes, isn't it?

[–]MestR 164 points165 points ago

[–]LungMa 110 points111 points ago

Mr. Freeman?

[–]zombiebunnie 44 points45 points ago

HL3 Confirmed.

[–]Salyangoz 6 points7 points ago

thought of doing this. however he is no 'hero' so i skipped it.

[–]titanicx -5 points-4 points ago

I don't know, he shot a cop, so good enough for me...

[–]CantankerousMind 2 points3 points ago

First thing that popped into my head.

[–]About64Narwhals 17 points18 points ago

Heisenberg?

[–]sp4ce 2 points3 points ago

[–]JenXer 4 points5 points ago

Nope, still creepy. The smile doesn't reach his eyes. [shudder]

[–]orangejuicedrink 3 points4 points ago

his eyes aren't smiling.

[–]GravityOfDSituation 3 points4 points ago

He looks like a pedophile now.

[–]tonypotenza 3 points4 points ago

Please have a seat, right over here.

[–]bmarshhhh 49 points50 points ago

Walter White?

[–]eroq 3 points4 points ago

Gotta be where the hair came from.

[–]Trowter123 9 points10 points ago

Anybody else think he looks kinda like Gordan Freeman from Half-life in this pic?

[–]sultanblender 4 points5 points ago

Now he just looks like he's going to sell me Dish TV or a video phone.

[–]Daanando 3 points4 points ago

I was thinking of doing that, but ugh, too much work. Excellent job.

[–]definitely_legit 6 points7 points ago

PS never feels like too much work, fun shizzles!

[–]Daanando 10 points11 points ago

I find that to be true only when I'm making myself laugh (I really hope my neighbours can't hear me then. So lame).

[–]PossiblyTheDoctor 2 points3 points ago

Rise, and shine.

[–]long_live_king_melon 1 point2 points ago

His eyes remind me of Heisenberg.

[–]modcaleb 131 points132 points ago

[–]willerd 35 points36 points ago

He looks kind of... Sad.

[–]pandapunches 1 point2 points ago

Thanks, I barely made it through that first one..my head doesn't feel right

[–]shatonamime 126 points127 points ago

[–]makubex 34 points35 points ago

Oh sweet! I loved Morrowind!

[–]famousninja 2 points3 points ago

What is this. This. thisthisthisthisthishtis. WHAT IS THIS?

[–]audentis 3 points4 points ago

I believe it's Squidward in one specific Spongebob scene.

[–]TheYuppieWord 2 points3 points ago

It was in one of those 30 minute long Spongebob episodes...but I can't quite remember which one. Haven't watched the new episodes really and just saw this recently online somewhere. It's NOT Squidward though, I know that much.

[–]famousninja 2 points3 points ago

I believe it's Handsome Squidward, after a reverse google search.

I can backtrace like a motherfucking boss.

[–]TheYuppieWord 2 points3 points ago

I was going to do that, but I didn't care enough. Sorry :(

Edit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYuz5oXgJK0&feature=player_embedded#! You were correct! It was handsome squidward.

[–]okkomputer13 -2 points-1 points ago

RES with a/z

[–]Haolepalagi 28 points29 points ago

Warning to epileptics.

[–]definitely_legit 11 points12 points ago

Thanks for the reminder

[–]SkyDiveDream 14 points15 points ago

I love how the third eye is falling out of place in that second pic.

[–]baconOclock 3 points4 points ago

You're really good at this. I'm just an amateur with an uninformed opinion but I don't see any defect when zooming in.

[–]JizzNipples 2 points3 points ago

The scary flashing one looks a little like Matt Damon. Weird.

[–]JDole84 26 points27 points ago

[–]johnboy5210 0 points1 point ago

I forgot about that creepy bad guy. Nightmares commence.

[–]SkyDiveDream 68 points69 points ago

[–]WhipIash 5 points6 points ago

The resemblance is uncanny.

[–]PessimisticWaves 5 points6 points ago

This would look so awesome if both sides of his face were tattooed and both eyes blacked out. (Is that a prison tattoo?; the black eye?)

[–]Nukutu 10 points11 points ago

It's a cornea tattoo

[–]TwoChe 4 points5 points ago

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAmvUAhX3kg

Sort of NSFL, but only because you see needles in eyes. Like watching an educational video on a gross surgery. From the show tattoo on Nat Geo

[–]BabbaFeli 11 points12 points ago

Any info on what he did and when? Can't google him :(

[–]VoodooAK 21 points22 points ago

OP spelled his name wrong, it is Jason Barnum. ADN article here.

He looked like a damn zombie coming out the front door when he surrendered.

[–]eroq 8 points9 points ago

I don't see the damn zombie photo but thanks for posting article.

Edit: Holy Fuck! You're right. I found em. I guess only Japan will publish it?

[–]BabbaFeli 3 points4 points ago

Thank you so very much!

[–]LockeAndKeyes 0 points1 point ago

Use google reverse image search

[–]PhanOfAndrew 19 points20 points ago

How did he do that with his right eye?

[–]silence_is_golden 26 points27 points ago

Tattoo.

[–]Heterohabilis 7 points8 points ago

WTF? Like he had someone needle ink into his cornea? Iris? Sclera? If you know more I want to know.

[–]kasperhej 26 points27 points ago

"Some of the disadvantages of corneal tattooing are the difficulty of performing the procedure and the risk of the procedure. Many people have gone blind from the attempt of the procedure. Corneal tattooing is a difficult procedure and very difficult to perform precisely. Often the area tattooed fades after time and rarely remains permanently. The size of the area tattooed also might reduce over time." Wiki article on the subject - sounds like a fucking terrifying procedure.

[–]Vicious-Circle 45 points46 points ago

[–]Murtri 2 points3 points ago

This is A - OKAY. REPEAT. NOT NSFL.

[–]lesser_panjandrum 7 points8 points ago

Next question: why the shuddering fuck would anyone want to do that to themselves?

Fair enough, it's their own body and I'd never want to dictate to someone what they can and can't do with it, but for crying out loud it's a tattoo in your eyeball that could well blind you!

[–]scratchresistor 18 points19 points ago

Because it looks fucking cool.

[–]narwhalsareawesome 7 points8 points ago

Look at this guy and tell me he uses the same logic that you do.

[–]zombiebunnie 4 points5 points ago

Why do people shoot up black tar heroin?

Theres a lot of fucked up things that people do to themselves out there...

[–]DrDerpberg 3 points4 points ago

The cornea is the clear part. Pretty sure he has a scleral tattoo.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scleral_tattooing

[–]kasperhej 3 points4 points ago

TIL, thank you :)

[–]JKELL 2 points3 points ago

[–]Spiffy313 0 points1 point ago

I'm going to need some eyeble---.... dammit.

[–]ICantDoBackflips 2 points3 points ago

There is no way that guy is qualified to stick a needle in that guy's eye.

[–]TwoChe 0 points1 point ago

That same thought crossed my mind.

[–]CrossedQuills 19 points20 points ago

He'll fit right in with the other guys in the crypt.

[–]titanicx 16 points17 points ago

[–]ListenChump 27 points28 points ago

I am going to rig his head for animation. Give this battle some upvotes why don't ya?

EDIT: I animated all of Spiffy313's ideas into a 1 second loop.

Spiffy313: "Cross-eyed, smiling and nodding, I don't know, licking his nose?"

[–]ListenChump 4 points5 points ago

I know I took too long, but I can pretty much animate him doing anything from here.

Let me know if you want the project files.

EDIT: I have decided to dedicate 2 hours to doing the quickest and dirtiest of facial motion capture attempts. I'm thinking duct tape tracking points. I will post a side by side .gif at 1am Eastern.

EDIT: Motion capture footage proved useless, so I am animating Spiffy313's suggestions.

[–]Spiffy313 2 points3 points ago

Cross-eyed, smiling and nodding, I don't know, licking his nose?

[–]LeSpatula 4 points5 points ago

Barnham Zombie Hunter -- Or Zombie himself?

(Album with the picture I used.)

[–]Mr0Mike0 5 points6 points ago

[–]Jolu- 4 points5 points ago

for clarification concerning this subreddit: the OP is always the original picture or is it already edited in some way?

[–]Daanando 12 points13 points ago

It's rare that the original picture has been edited. Usually people just find a funny, or cool picture and post it here as is.

[–]Jolu- 2 points3 points ago

okay, thank you!

[–]weaselstomp[S] 6 points7 points ago

This one wasn't edited; he's just a bad, bad man.

[–]Jolu- 1 point2 points ago

yeah - very fascinating ...choice of lifestyle. Is that a glass-eye or just contact lense?

[–]weaselstomp[S] 3 points4 points ago

It appears to be a contact lens, eyeball tattoo, or dye. His iris is still in the center with a pupil.

[–]Murtri 3 points4 points ago

It's an eyeball tattoo. A tattoo. On his eye

Let me repeat that for you.

This dude

put a

TATTOO

on his

GODDAMN EYEBALL.

[–]Ganondorf66 6 points7 points ago

Look at the bright side.

[–]remhawk99 1 point2 points ago

We finally have a super villian.

[–]GeoKeo 1 point2 points ago

Either one would be improvement. http://imgur.com/a/d8uq6

[–]TheYuppieWord 1 point2 points ago

Well that second one was strangely arousing.

[–]CokerAddict 1 point2 points ago

Off to /r/mspaintbattles with you!

[–]Be-the-best 5 points6 points ago

I, for one would never fuck him about in prison

[–]taosahpiah 4 points5 points ago

You wouldn't have a choice.

[–]dbly4242 0 points1 point ago

I think the best Photoshop would just be him without any tattoos or augmentation.

[–]CounterPillow -1 points0 points ago

I've never asked for this.

[–]ugh_next 0 points1 point ago

Is this the result from being picked on because he has no soul is a ginger?

[–]silentkill144 7 points8 points ago

[–]vinney1369 4 points5 points ago

By worst, do you mean linking back to the original image?

[–]silentkill144 1 point2 points ago

Wooosh

[–]vinney1369 2 points3 points ago

That's how I roll.

[–]Clownhead420 5 points6 points ago

I dunno why....but i just don't think he did it

[–]Spiffy313 0 points1 point ago

Seems like a nice, reasonable fella.

A nice, reasonable fella who shoots up heroin and dyes his eyeball black.

edit: My bad, tattoos his eyeball.

[–]Ruddiver 3 points4 points ago

[–]TheInsaneDane 13 points14 points ago

Needs more jpeg.

[–]relevantusername- 0 points1 point ago

Hey, that's a decent picture. Keep working at it.

[–]Ruddiver 1 point2 points ago

yeah, I suck. I use ms paint, as if it isnt that obvious.

[–]weaselstomp[S,M] 4 points5 points ago

There are some free editors out there: gimp and paint.net are probably the best

[–]koshercowboy 0 points1 point ago

and pixlr.com! my personal favorite. it's like photoshop, but free, and online.

[–]Jgunman 1 point2 points ago

I'm surprised no one has thought of a "Bleach" inspired PS. I think he makes a good hollow.

[–]coolwubla 2 points3 points ago

Kano wins

[–]scraffa 0 points1 point ago

This picture really goes to show you that you can't judge a book by it's cover. I never would have expected a man who looks this friendly to do such a horrible thing!

[–]Last_Gigolo 0 points1 point ago

What happened to that eye ?

[–]TheYuppieWord 0 points1 point ago

It's a tattoo.

[–]Last_Gigolo -1 points0 points ago

ON HIS FRICKEN EYE?????

[–]whussupbrah 2 points3 points ago

combustion man..

[–]thinksInCode -1 points0 points ago

Kratos?

[–]Filip22012005 -1 points0 points ago

It's Aang from the gritty reboot of The Last Airbender (I know, this is Photoshop Battles, and not Word Battles).

[–]theknightofnee 1 point2 points ago

[–]PijiX 1 point2 points ago

[–]iampayette 0 points1 point ago

His tattoos are actually really cool.

[–]noryeforme -1 points0 points ago

[–]rydrig -1 points0 points ago

one of the best photoshopbattle posts ive looked at in a while lol.

[–]o0evillusion0o -2 points-1 points ago

Damn, his hair's starting to grow in. Gonna hide the exquisite artwork on his dumass head.

[–]the_lurkerman -2 points-1 points ago

I can't believe no one has done the half terminator face yet!

[–]Shasne -2 points-1 points ago

No Harvey Dent references? hmm
