Photoshop Tutorial: Michael Jackson Wallpaper
Last week we lost Michael Jackson, a true legend and without any doubt, an inspiration to a whole generation. I grew up listening to his songs and of course, was amazed by his movie clips and dance moves. The moonwalk was something I always wanted to learn how to do and even today, it still impresses me. Also the light effects were always part of the Michael Jackson's repertoire and of course, have influenced a lot in my style. In this tutorial I will show you how I created the wallpaper in tribute to the king of pop.
