Bondy- these are great- you've improved so much on photoshop its amazing

Is there a guide you used to help you improve or did you just mess around with it?

To be honest been playing around with it for a while now, what i have been doing recently is too try to use a new tool every couple of weeks bye doing a few tutorials on what its for and how to use it, then apply it to a picture, or poster example, layer masks, pen tool, blending, etc. I do seem to be getting better looked back at some of my old ones and they suck big time.

Nice Job!

If anyone wants any tips or tricks I would be happy to help.

You totally should! Maybe some youtube videos of the kind of thing you seem to specialise in?!? (replacing heads on movie posters and also these mad effects you have on wallpapers!) <if you have the time>

This kind of stuff is lost on me at the moment i'd love to go from learning the basics to creating this type of thing.

Is there anything online you're using for help Bondy? I'm not really sure what to search for i guess and haven't found much (other than making wedding photos brighter etc )

As I said in my last post I tend to find fun tutorials to learn a certain tool, here's a website with some extremely cool pictures but for most of them you need to have quite alot of knowledge to do them as they dont explain how to do basic things, such as Layer masks and the like.

Also some of the effects are produced using brush's and layer blending etc here are some great sites I use, for inspiration, I will do some basic videos so you can see what its all about. Because to be honest you can look at all the tutorials you want but hands on is the best way to learn.

Nice work

Posted by: Sensible Jones Mar 11 2009, 02:18 PM

If you do a search for 'Photoshop Tutorials' you'll get loads of hits!!! That's how I learned to do the basics!!

Wow that`s truly awesome! And maybe first wallpaper will be even greater if background will be less bright? (I mean white in there makes me eyes tired if i use it maybe some dark green or dark blue could work? Just an idea )
