What you will need:
1. Guava 2. Face photo
Step 1 Open both the guava and face photos in Photoshop. After this, make a selection using the Lasso or Pen Tool out of the face, leaving the ears, hairs, and body behind because we don't them (unless you opt to include it).
Step 2 Copy and paste the selected image into the guava, and then use the Free Transform Tool to resize and reposition it to fit well. Your layers palette looks like this one upon pasting the face:
Step 3 Set the appropriate color balance adjustments depending on the image you use. What we're trying to do here is to make the face color nearest to that of the guava's.
Step 4 Grab your Eraser tool (soft brush, size:60 px, opacity:30), then erase out the edges until the cut fades and no remnants of the edges are seen. After this, remove the noise to eliminate the grainy effect of the image so as to make it softer.
Now, that's looking pretty good eh!
Step 5 Click the "Create new fill or adjustment layer" icon below your layers palette and choose Hue/Saturation... Apply the following settings:
Step 6 Back to Layer 1. Grab your Burn Tool (range:midtones, opacity:30, soft brush:30 px) and then brush over the eyebrows, eyebugs, nostrils, below the nose, and below the lips. This will give more accent to the shades and enhancing the overall look.
Step 7 Finally, pick your Blur Tool and brush out a little bit more of that grainy effect to have a smoother and cleaner look of the image. Don't overdo it to preserve the natural look. That's it!
