The Fallen Angel – Photoshop Tutorial The Fallen Angel – Photoshop Tutorial 5 (100%) 2 votes I’m quite excited about this tutorial.

Final Result Stock used You need a premium PLUS membership in order to see the downloads links Video Tutorial (you are allowed to embed this video on another website) Step 1 I’ll skip this step pretty quick because I want to focus on the important stuff. I used a 2800×3200 pixels canvas. Step 2 I used 3 adjustment layers as clipping mask on the foreground layer in order to make it match the blue background. Step 3 This is where the fun part starts. I used the Mixer Brush Tool because I really like how it works. You can work with this tool non-destructively by creating a new clipping mask and checking Sample All Layers on the tool’s settings. Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Once you’re done with the hair add the wings. Step 7 Step 8
Revealing Dita Von Teese in a Fully Articulated 3D Printed Gown Last night at the Ace Hotel in New York to a crowd of uber-cool fashonistas and paparazzi we revealed the 3D printed gown designed by Michael Schmidt and Francis Bitonti modeled by queen of burlesque Dita Von Teese. The fully articulated gown based on the Fibonacci sequence was designed by Michael Schmidt and 3D modeled by architect Francis Bitonti to be 3D printed in Nylon by Shapeways. The gown was assembled from 17 pieces, dyed black, lacquered and adorned with over 13,000 Swarovski crystals to create a sensual flowing form. Thousands of unique components were 3D printed in a flowing mesh designed exactly to fit Dita’s body. This represents the possibility to 3D print complex, customized fabric like garments designed exactly to meet a specific person or need. We would like to extend a massive thanks to the entire team at the Ace Hotel in New York for organizing the collaboration and an amazing event. Thanks to the Ace Hotel and Albert Sanchez for images.

INSANITY Workout - Extreme Home Workout DVD - INSANITY Workout Reviews - Beachbody.com To start: This program is not for beginners. If you have a lot of physical problems, this is not the program for you. However, if you want to really get toned and lose weight then this is the perfect workout for you.

With Insanity, the change is immediate and you will see that during your first week of the program. The first two weeks is intense, especially if you have never worked out a day in your life and it doesn't get any easier as you progress week after week.
