    • place the portrait in the background image 

    • apply a Layer Mask to the portrait at full res

    • convert that to a Smart Object 

    • Edit > Free Transform to scale it and place it atop a background head 

    • on a new Layer beneath the SO remove parts of the original head that protrude with the Remove Tool, Clone Stamp Tool, …

    • add a Clipping Masked Hue/Saturation Layer atop the SO to change the skin color (and add a Layer Mask to mask out eyes and teeth for example)

    I am struggling, is there any change you could record your screen? 


    I forgot to add a new Layer before using the Remove Tool and messed up the shadow under the chin, but maybe it helps nonetheless …

    Please post the images in question. 

     

    If the perspectives roughly line up placing the human face as a Smart Object and masking and Adjustment Layers may suffice.

    That’s one of the two (or more) images. 

    Is the image of the human also (relatively) frontal?
