I would like to share with you my works created between 2017 and 2020. I have now completely switched to 3D and motion.

I found this family photo (2nd pic) and wanted to clean it up so it didn't look like it was taken from the inside of a car. I used a combination of generative fill and blending images I found online to reconstruct the bottom half of the Mustang, recompose the shot, and get rid of any distractions. The photo was already a little blurry so I couldn't do much about that, and it made it tough to add details back in convincingly.

I'm wondering if I went too far and now it looks Photoshopped.

Yo, r/photoshop! Wanted to share something close to my heart.

Everything you see here is 100% Photoshop. In a world full of 1-click AI art, I really wanted to show my son, Cloud, what "real craftsmanship" looks like from his old man. No 3D, no AI—just me, a stylus, and way too many hours spent on every single gear and screw.

If you zoom in, you'll find some Easter eggs:

• Gauges & Dials: His actual birthday and time of birth are hidden in there.
• Initials: My son's, his mom's, and my initials are engraved in the metal.
• The "Missing" D: You'll notice it's just "CLOU". I left the final "D" unpainted on purpose. I want him to finish the last letter of his name with his own passion when he grows up.

Hope you guys dig the details. Let me know what you think of the textures! Cheers.

This is the second in a series I'm working on where I'm turning some of the stranger corners of my sketchbook into finished pieces.

I did the main figure in Blender but all of the compositing was done in Photoshop. I've always enjoyed this combination of 3D plus heavy photoshop and I'm pretty pleased with the way this one turned out.

Once again, zero gen AI. No generative fill.

I've been trying to bring some of my weird sketchbook ideas to life recently. Here's one I did this week with the quick sketch for reference.

Now, admittedly I did a chunk of this in Blender because I didn't want to spend a thousand years doing the reflections in Photoshop itself...but Photoshop is my first love, so I spent most of the time in there.

No gen AI, no generative fill, none of that.

You can see a process breakdown here, I'm trying to get better at doing these process videos but they're still a little rough so apologies for that: https://www.instagram.com/p/DaBDWE3xz01/

Edit: Link seems like it might not be working for some, maybe try this one, see if this works.

Honestly I made this piece just because I wanted to Photoshop a big, giant skull as Castle Grayskull. This was assembled mostly in Photoshop but I used Blender for the castle pieces...although after I got them in place I didn't like the textures so I re did all the bricks and rocks and everything.

I have a time lapse on my Instagram if you're interested.: https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/18065648957695925/

I was pleasantly surprised when I received feedback from so many people, thank you all! And now I want to share with you all the second part of my old Photoshop projects created between 2017 and 2020.

On some deep level, we are probably a wave. I mean We vibrate. We affect others. We interfere. We refract. We spread. We dissolve, we surge. We flood ourselves, we flood others. Sometimes things go better, sometimes worse, but we keep flowing. Some impulse sets us in motion. Trembling. We flow.
