Corey shows you how to make a new photo look damaged by blending in some unusual textures.
Use Photoshop’s new 3D tools to create some dazzling background effects.
When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times.

This was a truly great batch of tutorials. I use these all the time to enhance my quality and skill. Most of what I learned (as seen on my site http://www.sterlingprm.com) is from him!

Thanks a lot Corey. Very educational. I always just used the pen tool to create a path and then clear the parts that I didn’t want (the background), but this looks like a much more smooth and controlled method. ~ZeroGrafics
