Wanted to share this with all the retouchers! :)
I am not sure if this has been posted in the forums but I couldn't let this slip by without sharing. The link below has some beautiful retouching done by Nienna on DeviantArt.com. She also provides pamphlet-like tutorials on D&B as well as cleaning up the skin. She also has a video download that shows her entire process of retouching! I thought this was really great for myself as well as for those who are still in a learning process of retouching. Enjoy!! Images and Pamphlet-like tutorials http://nienna1990.deviantart.com/gallery/ Link with videos: http://nienna1990.deviantart.com/ http://nienna1990.deviantart.com/journal/ I'll post more things that I find as I go along.  Oct 14 09 05:35 pm Link You forgot her age x Oct 14 09 08:28 pm Link thanks alot for the links, didn't check out the vids yet, but it looks like she is using D&B techniques and she is really good at it Oct 14 09 09:21 pm Link Natalia_Taffarel wrote: I know, I put everything else about her...lol Oct 15 09 03:23 pm Link Tarazz wrote: Yeah I was watching a small bit of it last night and fell clear asleep..lol (not that it was boring, I was just extra tired...lol). But yeah she is and from what I have seen so it is a pretty good tutorial on D&B for those who do not favor it so much (like me, only because I am not an expert at it yet...lol). Oct 15 09 03:24 pm Link I will say this thought...D&B is a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG process and I think that alot of retouchers may re-think their prices once they learn it....lol...I know I am thinking about it...lol Oct 15 09 03:39 pm Link A Creative Niche wrote: This retoucher isn't that strong. You should check out the retouching that Fadil Berisha's team does. Oct 15 09 03:46 pm Link That retoucher's work is very, very good! Unfortunately there is no tutorial on what they do to help the rest of us learn some better techniques, of which I could post on MM. I think that Nienna tutorials would be a good start for some people and they could use the techniques to develop their own way of retouching.

Oct 15 09 05:17 pm Link I SEE...I had no idea what her age was...never really looked at that, But yeah she is definitely on the right track with her work. Oct 15 09 06:23 pm Link I know she has an account here on MM. Don't remember what it is, but if you're going to be talking about her work, it might be worth mentioning to her.

Oct 15 09 07:54 pm Link Tachibana Kent wrote: Maybe it's my screen, but I spotted a lot of imperfections in the Berisha stuff. The work didn't seem nearly competitive with the top retouchers on this site. Oct 15 09 08:10 pm Link Thanks for posting this. I'm no PS expert (in fact far from it) but she looks like she has some real talent; nice to see she is so willing to share tips.

Oct 16 09 11:25 am Link When do I get my praise thread?

Oct 16 09 12:26 pm Link nice tutorial...look familiar. I've seen this before. it aint new. Oct 16 09 12:34 pm Link d00dle wrote: Perhaps not to you, but to others it may well be. It is always a good thing when someone is willing to help others who wish to truly learn do so.

Let us not forget that one of the rules is "no unsolicited critiques." I believe a lot of the posts above violate this policy. OP posted information that was out there, that may be helpful to others. If you like the information, great, thank the OP, If you don't like the info, move on. Putting the information, or others down (unsolicited critique), to make yourself feel better, isn't necessary, nor helpful to this thread. My 2 cents. Oct 16 09 02:10 pm Link Yes! Invaluable info for those of us beginning to learn professional techniques. Thank you! Oct 16 09 10:28 pm Link Thanks to all those who finds this helpful! I am going to be posting more links to other tutorials that I feel would be helpful from other sources as well. Feel free to post any that you feel is good too!Oct 17 09 05:11 am Link Okay So I found this site which I felt was a pretty good read for beginners of retouching. This read somewhat "trains" you from the very, very beginning of you starting to retouch any image. ( I am pretty much talking about "Tip#1".) The others you can read as well to see if it will help you. http://fashionphotographyblog.com/2009/ … he-master/ Oct 17 09 09:07 am Link Oct 17 09 09:34 am Link I thought this was an interesting read in regards to "printing" using photoshop. This is for CS2 but I am sure it can be applied to other versions. http://www.computer-darkroom.com/ps9_pr … rint_1.htm Oct 19 09 06:45 am Link Ok to keep from posting tons of links...lol...here is the link to www.photoshopessentials.com . Some of you may have already been up and down this site but for those who have never seen it, it should be quite helpful to you. Oct 19 09 06:56 am Link Wow that is perfect!!! Thanks so much for the links. Great work Maria Oct 19 09 07:41 am Link wow thanks! I wish I had been able to learn all this at that age!!! I wish I would have been taught photography earlier in life to! I feel i have wasted so much time not knowing!! lol!!!
