Photoshop CS5 Extended comes with 3D capabilities and I believe that is not any news to the majority. We have been publishing some tutorials exploring the 3D tool in Photoshop especially the Repousse in which we can create extrusing and other geometries directly in Photoshop. This video is another super cool tutorial send by Stacey Deonanan.
So in this tutorial Stacey will show us how to create a incredible star using Repousse in Photoshop. The outcome of this effect is awesome, sort of abstract and I don't have any idea how she came up with those values to create the star.
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Timothée Mathelin. A graphic designer from France. His influences are from everywhere, from skies to David Lynch and The Designers Republic to Baroque.
My main influences come from everyday’s life. Just a bird on a wire or a falling leaf from a tree... Every living motion gives me an inspiration of what is life and the wish to illustrate it. Lately, I’ve been really inspired by futuristic times and the imagination of new civilizations.

The book suggestion of the week is one of my favorites, it's called Typology: Type Design From Victorian Era to the Digital Age and it covers a lot of art history always linking with types and typography. It's a must read for those starting out their careers or even willing to dust off their typology and typography skills.
