I found the airbrush tool on photoshop, so I thought I would have a bit of a play around with it and see what it could do. The first two pics are about 1/2 hour each of work. The Third is 1 hour. THe last I did tonight took me 3 hours.

This thing it HEAPS of fun!!! Found something to do with my cloudy nights!!

Did you start out with the original pictures then add to them or just start

from scratch? If you started from scratch those are very nice works.

All from a blank screen. I had a photo of orion beside me to guide me in getting the details right.

Holy cow man, that's great work! I have always hated Photoshop's painting tools, but you seem to have managed just fine. If you like this kind of thing so much, I highly recommend you get your hands on Painter. http://corel.com/painter

Pair that with a drawing tablet and you'd be set.

Again, with only a mouse and Photoshop, that's deadly stuff!

Well that's nice....

I used to airbrush a bit years ago with an Aztec airbrush and Dupont paints. I have found that using the tools on Photoshop, it is almost the same but without the mess and you can reverse a mistake.

But to say that Photoshop did it is like saying your reply wrote itself.

I'm sorry I tried to share the results of a fun tool with everyone so they could have a go if they wish.
