Don't make fun of me. I'll tell on you.

I doubt that it is "transformed to fit"... the guy probably had a reference photo, drew the areas needed to create the face, and then hand drew the type inside these areas... then he took it to the next level in illustrator... Stuff that look really nice, is rarely acheived by "easy steps" such as filters and stuff.. So my advice to you, if you want to learn to make nice work, is to master the pen as much as the pen-tool... both analogue and digital skills are important
