Hello everyone. Derek here with another photo manipulation for you all. This time it's about my favorite video game character Lara Croft..as if you didn't know who it was already. Now, there's no denying that Keira Knightley could play a good Lara Croft. She has the attitude (King Arthur) the looks (Lara's eyes) and if the voice actress speculation is to be believed..the voice as well. It was with all of this that while talking to Melonie Tomb Raider of the Tomb Raider Chronicles boards, I came up with a tremendous idea. What if I was to take Keira Knightley's face, and find out just exactly how much she resembles Lara Croft? It was with that, that I scoured high and low for high-res Keira images as well as a good render of Miss Croft herself. Getting to work in Adobe..I carefully and hastily began work on superimposing Keira's face on that of Lara Croft's. What the end result wound up as, is something that neither I or anyone else could've prepared me for. Not only did Keira's facial features match Lara's in an early "opacity blend test" but as I worked towards blending Lara's skin with Keira's I found out that..as previously thought...Keira Knightley is a DEAD RINGER for Lara Croft. Of course..all this talk wouldn't be anything without proof. So I'll let you guys be the judge. Presenting Keira Knightley as Lara Croft:
Lol and yes I know it looks bizzare and that the head looks bigger than it should be, but thats partly what makes it funny.
Believe it or not, still version 7. My PC is too old to handle CS2, even though PS7 is a memory whore and suffers from what is known as 'memory leaks'.
