Help Needed

[The Don]

So I got bored and found a picture I wanted to do something with;

I wanted to try and make it like he's looking at a poker table and I think the left side looks okay, but I just can't get the right side to look right, any ideas on how?

In case anyone was wondering this is the picture I used for in the glasses.

Maybe get a pic of a while Poker table, so It doesn't looked so zoomed in. You get what I mean?

No that's not it, I'm just trying to find a way to make the look more natural in the glasses.

Im aboutu to leave for uni so I cant do it for you but off the top of my head:

Scale

Its a little too big, he looks like he'd be right up close to the table. Like, literally, head on the table. Find a more zoomed out pic of it. Or not, if you like the emphasis, but be aware of that

Depth of field

this can go a long way to selling perspective. As it is, it LOOKS like a flat plane whilst the head is on a tilt. SLIGHTLY blur the right half of the right lense to imitate DoF, but make it a tiny amount. Seriously, not much at all.

Curvature

again, it LOOKS like a flat plane at the moment. Think of it as a cloth, with an image printed on it. That image is your poker table, and its going to get wrapped around or draped on a shape (the head)

Keeping it simple, shapewise, the head is pretty much a cylinder (thats how we block em in in figure drawin) so imagine your cloth around a cylinder...

You could either render it applied to a cylinder OR (EASIER way but I've less experience in it) use a distort filter, I'm sure theres a 3D-ify filter in photoshop that can do this.

THEN, imagine the same thing but on a more intricate scale - pieces of cloth laid on the sunglasses lenses. Youll need to bend the image slightly around the seams of the lenses - exagerate the form of the lenses.

Color

darken it a bit as it looks like the reflection is not taking any of the sunglasses' ambient colour.

Theres a few other things like skew and yaw that need a quick fix. I'd also suggest maybe overlaying a sunglasses lense image over the top of it, with highlights and stuff, to sell the fact its meant to be a reflection and not a projection.

I worked with cylinder and spherize on the left lens and it looks much better but for somereason the right one won't change when I goto it'd layer and do the same, any idea as to why?

[Chillalex]

nope

said, dont have much experience with that tool, I just know its there and what it does
