DC Contest: Fountain of Youth

Are you ready for another contest from DesignCrowd? This time, we explore the world of aging and how to make a humorous take on such a universal phenomenon. 

The Fountain of Age contest has just wrapped up, we do have some mind-bending creations to discuss! This contest was like a digital fountain of youth (or wisdom, for those who prefer a few extra virtual wrinkles), where Photoshop gurus from across the globe showcased their ability to turn the clock forward and backward on some of the most recognizable faces.

What's The Contest About?

Imagine having the power to age or de-age anyone with the flick of a mouse or a keyboard —that's exactly what went down at the "Fountain of Age 20." Artists were challenged to take a famous person, celebrity, or others and, with a splash of creativity and a dash of digital mastery, present us with a version fresh out of a time machine or wise beyond their years. And guess what? They nailed it!

The entries were nothing short of spectacular, but let's zoom in on the top-tier transformations that stole the show:
