Photoshop Experiments

September 21st, 2008

... or the one about how I do not suck at photoshop... at all.

I wondered if I still had my knack for using Photoshop, and I knew there was much more to learn that I’d never picked up before. This week I read a lot of photoshop tutorials, but the most important thing I never learned to use before: Brushes. I have NO idea how I’ve missed out this feature, and this week I discovered a few tutorials/videos on how to make photoshop do all sorts of things with my Wacom tablet that my ex-wife got me so many years ago. I’d really not been utilizing it enough. Without further delay, though, I’ll get to the art:

Playing around with grunge brushes, sunbursts, and making a new banner for the Ars Brute Squad:

And one from way back when I first started playing with brushes:
