How to Morph Two Objects Together to Make One on Photoshop
The act of morphing two completely different objects together as one is usually featured as the plot of a science fiction film, but any budding digital scientist can create unlikely or likely pairings by entering the Adobe Photoshop “laboratory.” The Photoshop graphics software provides all the tools – no beakers or chemicals required – to put two separate objects together to make a single electronic image.

Click the other image to give it focus. Press the “Ctrl” and “V” keys on the keyboard to paste in the first, copied object. The two objects now exist in the one image together.

Click the “Eraser” tool, which looks just like its namesake, in the middle of the “Tools” pane. Click and drag the cursor anywhere on the pasted object, which erases that part of it. The object below starts to morph through, causing the two objects to appear blended together as one.

Tips & Warnings
If both objects are located in the same folder or destination on the computer, open them both at the same time and save a few moments effort. After navigating to the files’ location, press and hold down the “Shift” key on the keyboard, click once on each image and click the “Open” button. The two images will then tile into the Photoshop workspace.

Morph two objects on the same image the same way. Instead of opening two files, just perform the "Lasso" and copy/paste process directly on the same image.
