The following are all people I’ve admired from afar. This collection is a taster of some of the fabo photo retouching and manipulation work they do, something I’m really interested in and do a bit of work in myself. So these guys are quite inspirational. You’ll find no swirls or swooshes in this lot, they are all very different, interesting to look at and try to figure out how it’s done. All images are copyright the original artist.

So, in no particular order;

Some photo retouching/ illustration work I’ve done for self-promotional purposes. Main model photography by Vranarc. It was done in Photoshop (what else?). Comments/feedback very welcome as always.
