Last year our friend and contributor of Abduzeedo Cameron Rad did a video tutorial called A Perfect Lie in Photoshop in which he showed us a really cool skin retouching technique. Even though the that tutorial was already cool he wasn't satisfied and spent another year trying to come up with a killer way to do skin retouchin. In this Photoshop Tutorial Cameron will present us what he has found out over this last year of Photoshop experiments.
The wallpaper of this week is an image I created a few weeks ago while playing in Photoshop trying to create some fluffy icon style clouds. The result was quite nice and I ended up writing a tutorial showing how to do the same.
If you want to learn how to create this design check out the Fluffy Clouds in Photoshop tutorial.
