how does one get this look in PS - super awesome
HI, I saw some of his video's on you tube and..whoo was super impressed but as I don't understand the language.so was wondering if anyone has link to similar video's http://www.maxtwain.com/#!oil/cgf3 Rds www.robinsaini.com Jul 27 14 12:42 pm Link that's a photoshop plugin, you just push a button.... haha.... Jul 27 14 01:27 pm Link Russian from the looks of it. Check the tutorials link on his website, can buy the actions. $179 per is a bit steep for what it is though. Just heavy smoothing and colored layers, nothing really special about the retouching..the models are what makes it so interesting, obviously. The heavy detailed stuff is Heavy dodge and burn + blue channel technique on the 50 cent image http://www.maxtwain.com/#!untitled/zoom/cfvg/image1d4g Jul 27 14 01:31 pm Link Rather than chasing a particular look that is already so long in the tooth that there are plugins to reproduce it, take the time to develop your own look.

I've never done it but it can make for some cool imagery. You can Google it and get some tutorials. Jul 27 14 04:45 pm Link Robin Saini Photography wrote: Read the link - those are paintings.

You'd be able to start here and use a little trial and error https://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thread_id=926714 Jul 28 14 11:08 am Link Michael Alestra wrote: Yep, Once I see the larger images, it shows. Though it's not just Topaz alone, there are other techniques involved. Topaz definitely a part of it.

Photoshop, curves adjustments, etc., can, (and should, in my opinion), all be incorporated into every final image. There may be a "push button" way to achieve this look, but I wouldn't recommend it - you would lack the control over the histogram, (the tonality). -Don Jul 28 14 11:40 am Link J O H N A L L A N wrote: You mean like black and white photography?

Even Joel is moving away from that as it has already had its 5 year run. Jul 28 14 04:30 pm Link Martin Schiff Photo wrote: They look like 'paintovers' to me.

Jul 30 14 09:06 am Link Jul 30 14 09:10 am Link To OP: What separates that work from most... is the high skill level of digital painting, done with the brush tool in PS. Jul 30 14 08:32 pm Link Actually, looking closer.. Now I'm curious what's causing the cyan outline/halo in both his images and video? Jul 31 14 03:14 pm Link BillyVegas wrote: High pass filter maybe?
