I wish I knew how I did this?
A newbie, I was experimenting with Liquid Rescale, trying to create a wallet-size.
Somehow, in my klutz-ing around, I managed to create this liquid rescale from this original.
At least I had the presence of mind to save the image. But, Jimminy Cricket, I sure wish I could recreate what I did, so that I could do it again. But, after hours of punching around, I have yet to come close. I have been unable to recreate anything minimally elastic.
I thought I'd ask if any of you experts have an idea how to recreate effects like this?

Most probably, you have painted a preservation mask over the face and then you have set the preservation strength to a small value, like 20 or so, then you have rescaled to 162x261.
