Hello all. Is there a way in Photoshop to strech a picture? This meaning streching a picture of a face so that it could be turned into a texture? You know when you see a texture map for the face it's all flat, could you do this same effect from a photograph of a face? Does anyone know of a way of doing this? Or is there a decent tutorial out there?
Hope this makes sense, it does in my head.
Thanks

Sure, you take your uv layout, import it into Photoshop and then composite a couple of photographs into a texture. But if you're asking if Photoshop has an automated way of doing this, the answer is no, regrettably.

The clone tool and healing tool can work wonders, however...

Ohh yeah i see, copy and paste different parts from more than one photograph, excellent.

Is there any tutorials on this at all?
Thanks
