Last weekend I spent sometime watching TV, more specifically Lost, playing video-games, and playing around in Photoshop as well. I was working on some new images for fun, and for new tutorials of course. Speaking of tutorials, PSDTUTS has published my new tutorial, Create Cool Watercolor Effects in Photoshop, so check it out.

Also I’d like to share with you the wallpaper version of the Watercolor tutorial Below you have the different sizes of it.

I saw the brushes that made this possible.

It's really a very interesting "experiment".

To make procedural watercolor strokes one needs to deal with a lot of hard math models.

You got a similar result just with bitmap operations by using a very huge (= absolutely detailed) brush.

This very interesting "success case" give me new ideas for Computer Graphics development.

Theory and practice walking together. :)

I checked out the tutorial and very nice one. But have one question as I am not a plus member yet on PSDTuts, what font is that you using for your nametag below the PSDTUTS text?

Thanks and keep up the good work

I honestly don't know if you've ever been asked to release your wallpapers in 1280x800. If I'm repeating I apologize but I really like them and would like to use them in their full "power"

Obrigado!
