Photoshop knows no boundaries. Whether it’s age, skill or training, you’re only limited by your imagination. In this issue, we talk to young guns like Sebastian Andaur, who’s making a name for himself as a freelance art director while still in high school. 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!

BEFORE YOU START: Search through different<br />
stock photo sources in order to find a useful<br />
image. Google search provides miracles. Keep<br />
all your findings in one folder.<br />
01<br />
Research<br />
Do a bit of research on the internet to find images for your<br />
intended illustration. It might be funny accessories, drawings or<br />
realistic photos of animals. This stage is the basis of your work.<br />
02<br />
Making a rough sketch<br />
The main idea in this particular stage is to<br />
work on the whole image. So, don’t work on a<br />
single detail. Try to see the composition. This<br />
approach is also applicable with other stages as<br />
well and will keep your composition balanced.<br />
Create a new file. My particular need was to create an<br />
illustration which would be used in 3D visualisation<br />
and didn’t require a very high resolution. Compose<br />
all main elements such as background, ram’s head<br />
and horns. Separate the right horn from the head so<br />
you’ll have two layers: head and right horn. Create<br />
tongue, mouth and left horn using the Pen Tool.<br />
TIP: A combination of<br />
freehand Lasso (L) and<br />
Pen Tool (P) will help<br />
you do selections<br />
quickly and<br />
accurately. Pressing<br />
Shift while you’re<br />
choosing a tool<br />
switches between<br />
different options.<br />
TIP: Always use Auto-Select<br />
and Show Transform<br />
Controls options. They allow<br />
you to select and transform<br />
every layer quickly.<br />
