Hi guys! Can any of you tell me how to change skin color in gimp? I mean turning black guy into white one or that sort of thing.
Maybe you know good tutorial or can give me instructions yourself?

I do have one word of caution: artificially changing skin color always looks wrong. There are a lot more subtle differences in facial bone structure such that even if you get the skin tone perfect, it's going to look a little bit wrong.

1. Original
2. Duplicate to another layer -> Change lighting and contrast (color curve tool)
3. Add layer mask so that only the skin is affected
4. This is what it looks like then
5. Change opacity of the layer to whatever Looks best
6. Some shadows added
7.Didn't like the forehead color, so I put some highlights over it
8. result

Take picture. Mask layer by hand. Save as png.

There's no easy way sadly. You have to paint the mask by hand for the best results (start with large pencil strokes, medium pencil strokes, then paintbrush with a 75% hardness brush and two smaller sizes after another depending on the details - keeping your brush generally the same size for each pass gives better results because the edge feathering due to the hardness doesn't change size). The selection tools are too blunt and growing/shrinking selection gives too hard edges while feathing gives unnaturally soft edges. Nothing that will apply to the whole image at the same time will look as good as painting the contoures by hand. It's a mindless calming task thankfully.
