So everyone who is saying you could make a photo like that in five minutes I would like to see an example. If you can take five minutes out of your time and read this forum, then you can take five minutes to make a picture that rivals that one. I tried it, I'm fairly proficient at Photoshop. My end result was interesting, but did not compete with this one. I'm sure someone could make that photo, but I don't think five minutes time would even come close to enough time to make a picture that good. He changed the man's hairline, his skin tone and texture without losing skin detail. It's a pretty decent job, I'd say.

Anyway, I hope this hasn't been brought up yet, but what do these supposed aliens have, if anything, to do with the their namesakes: Babylonian gods Marduk and Enlil? And what about Anunnaki?

Yes, it's a fairly good job done. What you have to do to preserve as much smoothing as possible is to first enlarge your basic image hugely. Enlarge it by a factor of 20 or more times the size you eventually want your image to be. (This increases the pixel density and so when you reduce it again at the end of processing the resolution is not enough to "see" the edges of your alteration and so it looks smooth). Make all your changes, and then shrink the image back down again to lose the pixelated outlines of your tool brushes.

However, if you look at a magnified version of this image you can see the outline of the selected areas used for producing the "pinch" effect. Here is the image enlarged for you. You can see the outlines of the rectangles (they are clearer on the right than the left, but still visible all round). It looks like two seperate pinches were made as I can see two concentric rectangular border outlines:

Okay, so I took a little longer than 5...



If I took a little more time, I could probably just about duplicate the facial expression. I'm not overly experienced, so it would take more than 5 minutes, but I did this to show it is possible.

I completely missed that, and I was working on the other images above.

Thanks for your effort. I used that exact same picture to try it myself and came up with almost an identical result. The only difference was I tried to change his chin like it is in the "alien" photo. The person who did that chin did a very good job because I just couldn't get it right. I also tried to change the color of the skin, and I haven't a clue how he made it that perfect alien-grey tone while still maintaining texture. The hairline I didn't mess with because I know how I would do it if I were going to change the hairline, but that in itself would be a fairly large undertaking. Needless to say five minutes would just not do it. This is, in my opinion, a very artistic rendition of an alien that took some good skill and effort. But that's just me.

How about that colour?



This is quite fun :-)

Go to Image -> adjustments -> variations, then darken, lighten, add cyan, magenta, red, yadda yadda yadda.

It's pretty easy actaually.

Well I'm no Photoshop expert. I messed with this picture a bit and this was the best I could do. I think whoever Photoshopped the Enlil picture was extremely talented. I have yet to see any of the attempts to rival it compare much.





I think, though, that whoever concocted this hoax, used the names of the Babylonian gods that I mentioned in my post above. Unless those gods are real and today the god Enlil is disguised as the Brzezinski fella.

I took another crack at it. Not as easy as it looks.

There ought to be a competition thread on this.... start with one photo and see who can make the most convincing alien out of it.

That last one made me laugh :-)

Glad you got a chuckle out of it. The lighting just was'nt right in that pic. The pic that was used (by the original creator) of Lord Enlil, the lighting was much harsher, as you can tell by the deep shadows on the wrinkles on "Enlil's" face.

But then again, the original creator of the pics had probably more motivation than me, as well.

I'm sorry but I couldn't resist. There are way's to strip down those 'paint' layers on photoshopped images and as you can see in the image below, that first layer of 'red' for the pupils of the 'eye' that the artist painted in can be seen in the top image.

Please, tell me that doesn't look like the Senator(s) R Byrd or O Hatch? Shapeshifting, maybe.... gotta read through this thread. That's a hilarious photo.

One thing that bothers me most about this Casbolt person and the whole SAALM thing, is...wrong spelling!

Super intelligent beings from outerspace, who were worshipped as gods on earth thousands of years ago, of course wouldn't want their existence to be spelled incorrectly!

It's not "Annunaki", the correct writing is "ANU.NNA.KI"
The word "ANU" is important. It refers to ANU "The Heavenly One", Ruler of Nibiru, where they all came from.
ANU came to earth to supervise the expanded presence and operations.

As saying goes "The devil is in the details".
When observing a fact, check the details. If they are messed up and wrong, then most probably the whole fact is false.
