If the side of the images only been pulled in just slightly at the edges then you could possibly do a crop. You will have to redraw, paint or use the clone tool to repair the edges of your image. This will expose the background which could be transparent or it could be whatever you have on a lower layer. One thing to be aware of when you are using the pinch tool near to the edges of your digital painting, is that it will drag in the edge. The pinch tool is the opposite of that and pulls the pixels inwards. The longer you hold on the area the more the pixels are spread away from your centre point. Just tap the stylus or finger in the middle of where you want the area to grow. The bump tool is great when you want to make something like an eye to be larger. It’s just a case of pulling and pushing after you’ve set up the size and strength of tool. The warp tool allows you to drag pixels off in one direction so you can squish things together or make them wider. The way that these tools work now are really very intelligent allowing for extra levels of creativity. Previously when trying to do this sort of thing you would destroy the image around what you are trying to change. When you are using the warp tool, you drag pixels around to change the shape of objects. Using the warp tool in Pixelmator for iPad I suppose if you have only spotted something five minutes or 10 minutes later then using the restore tool will be just perfect. It’s probably more likely you will just do an undo if you spot something you’ve overdone. There is also a restore tool which you can use on an area where you’ve gone a little bit too far. That’s the case when you’re using the warp tool, the twirl tools or the bump and pinch tools. It’s possible to set up the size of the distortion tool and also the strength of the tool. The controls for liquefying and warping the image to change the shape of the face in the caricature, are more controllable in Pixelmator for iPad. I started off by using iColorama, but I could have just as well started in Pixelmator for iPad. I am using the iPad Pro and the Apple Pencil and I did do some painting of colour on top of the image to make it into a caricature. With the process I used to create the caricatures, it comes in as more photo manipulation rather than digital drawing and painting.
