I think this was posed before but i want to be sure.

am I able to use liquify to "slightly" modify an image. For instance how portrait professional works it has the options to scuplt the face. its not a drastic change but it can alter the appearance of the subject.

what do want to do is along those lines, i want to modify something in my image, to make it more or less prominent but not do some crazy editing.

i was once told that tucking small things like a prominent ear in a portrait is tolerated. Standard disclaimer saying i don't know jack withstanding.

let me put it this way, you can't tell looking at the final product I used liquify, its only when you compare it to the original.

its for my free study so i have a few days, hopefully SC weighs in.

Usually, if it's something fairly small & minor, it's not an issue to use liquify in Advanced. However, I highly recommend you send a before & after sample in a ticket to the SC, so that we can have a much clearer impression of what you're trying to achieve and be able to gauge the legality more easily.

Would something like this be tolerated?

Nope, should've been put down once hatched.

i think absolutely, you barely modified it from the original.
