Photoshop knows no boundaries. Whether it’s age, skill or training, you’re only limited by your imagination.

Then there are the illustrators and lettering masters who maximise the tools and techniques of Photoshop to suit their own needs. Check out Gabriela Fuente’s patterns, designed for high-end fashion clients and created in Photoshop. The beauty of Photoshop is that it has almost limitless possibilites. Use it to take ordinary photos into the realm of the extraordinary. Shane Monopoli and Mark Gardner show us how to composite a gothic drama at Windsor Castle, while Rachel Lewis goes behind the scenes to create highenergy cosplay images. There are also loads of tips and tricks, interviews and inspirational articles on everything from lettering and 3D work to complex layers and high-end retouching. Happy Photoshopping!

This tutorial is about mixing<br />
real, lifesize backgrounds with a regular Barbie<br />
doll and giving it a realist feel. Pre-production<br />
for this type of imagery is important as you’ll<br />
need to work out what backgrounds and which<br />
foregrounds you’re going to use and also how<br />
Barbie will be interacting within it. I suggest you<br />
shoot the backgrounds/foregrounds and Barbie<br />
at the same time, with the same lighting set up<br />
so you have some consistency when you merge<br />
the two together. Start with a plan!<br />
Use layer tint effects as well as the lens effects<br />
as much or as little as you want. I used the layer<br />
tint effects for colour and masked out areas that<br />
I didn’t want effected. The lens effect was used<br />
to give it a more fantasy feel and also helped with<br />
the selected focus and depth of field. Have fun<br />
with this tutorial. It’s a starting point but the<br />
possibilities are endless.<br />
