Looking for graphics software

[aleincaveman]

I'm looking for some special software that well allow me to change the physical apearance of a person. Like say take a photo of a nude woman for instance and make her boobs larger, or smaller even. Make a over weight person look thinner, and still keep thier real features. Age a person,or make them look younger?
I seen something on TV a couple of years back that did that, but I can't remember what it was. I don't have photoshop, but I don't think it well do that. But then maybe I'm wrong. I do know that paintshop wont. Atleast not the old verion that I have.
Anyone know what software I'm talking about?
And also whats the easyest, and best 3D app. to learn on? I want learn how to 1. convert 2D to 3D 2. I like to create alein landscapes, planets, and spaceships. 3. Create alein life forms. But I want to do it all in 3D.
I like this guys work. His name is Jonathan Cummings, I don't know if any of you know of him. He has alot of stuff up in webshots.com. But this is some of the kind of stuff that I want to learn to do.
Thanks for any help you can give to me.

You can enlarge and shrink body parts in Photoshop…. you have to be good at it to do it though. And best 3d applications out there are Maya and 3d Studio Max. Here are the links: 3d Studio Max (http://www.discreet.com/products/3dsmax/) and Maya (http://www.downseek.com/download/7359.asp)

I hear from a lot of people who use maya that it's great. So I think you should use that. Don't expect an easy ride cause all those programs are quite difficult to master, including Maya!

Good luck though!

PS. You DO know that it's alIEn not alEIn???

I've got Photoshop 7, and I think that it's great!!
I've used Paint Shop Pro before and in some ways it's the same as Photoshop, but, I'd say that Photoshop is better...

Also it is not quite supported by Internet community (which makes it harder to learn). But it is still a good and challenging alternative to Photoshop.

Rofl, in paint shop pro there's no 1 pixel tool. Basically, there's no pencil... so you have to take the spray paint can, and change it's width to one pixel... why didn't they just put in a damn pencil?
