[MizzElissa]

@paul0wn4life HAHAHA I like you.

[Difficultmind]

HEY GUYS!

Just a heads up, Photoshop 7 doesn't have Surface Blur, so if you're using Photoshop 7, the closest to Surface Blur is GAUSSIAN BLUR!

:))

Thanks for the tutorial, and keep up the amazing work!

[Naturally00Me]

thanks looks realist! what I have been looking for! not stealing from the persons "looks" the features of what makes them, them. Good job!

[nimsta85]

What do you mean the radius depends on the picture size? What is the ratio picture:radius(if any)?

[cassano005]

I want a concrete explanation to step 5 plsszz!! Where there are exactly the ""white soft round brush" i can find it :((

[StephanieValentin]

@cassano005 You have to choose the brush and after you choose the soft (in basic brushes) and the white color. All is explained on my website in "photoshop basics"

[adamlevinebelongtome]

Cant someone tell me The name of The song? Thank You! :)

[StephanieValentin]

@adamlevinebelongtome The song is "Fragile" and at the end of the video, there is a link to the clip with the complete song ;-) Thanks

[adamlevinebelongtome]

@StephanieValentin oh great song I see the video and forgive me if you dont understood my english is because my language is spanish :)

[497232]

Awesome! I'm starting falling in love with you! Do you have some tutorial for eyes, I mean, the "white" part (Megan's look red in this pic)

[StephanieValentin]

@497232 Thanks ! Yes, in drawing tutorial, choose the tutorial about the eye (in color)

[497232]

@StephanieValentin Thank you! You are the best.

[WalrusDesign]

This technique is fast and easy, but it is very destructive technique. Why just don´t try to go through channels? It is more natural and face looks much more realistitc.

[Zyromkiru]

But wait! There is but 1 more step! xD

[ryanjmcgowan]

Exactly the same method I use.

[sims2lovealot]

coool love it!!

[mmarieden]

Why not just use the blur tool?

[zubingala1]

A great tutorial from a great artist XD

[SAMIMYS]

now i call her Megan Fixed !

[SignorinaBlackBerry]

Stephanie, you're genial!!! :)

[ElenaAgibalova]

very useful tutorial. thank you

[helen2U]

I just use Camera Raw within cs5, it's called luminance and it does the same, great to have an alternative

[omgcowshaveudders]

@Jon1Productions I like this one better...

[techfreak47]

Photoshop + Talented Musician = INCREDIBLE :D !! recently I've been your digital painting tutorials you're so amazing :D !!

[jd54105]

wow



[fuzzbanana101]

C'est tout simplement incroyable! Stéphanie, j'ai été un fan de votre travail pendant un certain temps et vous êtes très talentueux, vous devriez être fier!

[uzuchann]

@Jon1Productions Ew. You can clearly see the difference between Stephanie's video and yours. She has skill, you don't.

So instead of trolling, take advice from this video and improve yourself.

[Picotee810]

wow, it looks so simple to do and the result is fabulous! definitely will try this, thanks...;-)

[cesarcba09]

The best and perfect tutorial!!!!!

[Jon1Productions]

Sorry, but this is a bad technique to soften Skin! =)

[HopelesslyPsychotic]

@Jon1Productions if it works it's not bad.

[omgcowshaveudders]

@Jon1Productions How is it a bad technique? It produces a good result...

[TimeBreaker1987]

Nothing wrong with the tutorial, but softened skin in general just looks awkward, it deforms the face we know.

[10angel11]

Do u know of any other websites i can use to edit photos? Something i dont have to pay for and i would prefer not to download but if you have any suggestions, im open to hearing them. haha

[HelloMarvelous]

this is your music? screw photoshop, why aren't you on billboard?

[Seita64]

You are so talented... I didn't know we had someone like you in France, i'm very impress !

[ZeeNavi]

Ooh, this is much better than the whole -blur, soft light- business because it doesn't change the over all look..

Thanks for this! <3

[JMtothaG]

the high pass method also works pretty nice. for both sharpen and soften

[AngeLs490779]

WHAT YOUR NAME SONG?

SORRY MY INGLISH

[serialclicker]

@AngeLs490779 it's "FRAGILE" . You could find it in Music Store on her website.

[shalcall]

Thank you! this is a great technique!

[streamlinedman]

Ah nice technique. I've been using a noise-reduction plug-in (on the whole image), but your method is more subtle. I was just experimenting with your technique, but it is hard to keep the skin realistic and deal with deep lines at the same time. I'd like to see a tutorial on an older woman with some deep lines around the eyes and on the forehead. TIA

[Jade161588]

@streamlinedman You can also soften areas by going into your picture with a really low setting smudge brush (I usually keep it around 20). So if you use her technique with this method, you can soften large areas with the white brush but keep the deep lines and the area around it as the original image and smudge around it a bit.

[StephanieValentin]

@streamlinedman I've done the tutorial with Sigourney Weaver, I hope you will like it ;-)

[Ershad7]

Thanks for this Stephanie....simple but yet awesome...

[Krullemadull]

That seems so easy o:

And it's also very simple! :D

[bsanders1999]

What do you use for editing the pictures?, is it free?

[EvilJirachi]

@bsanders1999 photoshop. around $1000. but you're at the internet where you can get anything you want for free. so its up to you

[hoatway]

Simple, but with fantastic results! Thank you so much for your tutorials, they have helped me out in more ways than you know. :)

[GUILTSS]

whats the perfect radius ratio with the picture?

[StephanieValentin]

@GUILTSS when the picture is blured but recognizable

[Fancylooks]

Perfect tutorial, thank you!

[MySistersWardrobe]

[ilikedatube]

[Peacelover1212]

[InfectiousPerfection]

[StephanieValentin]

@InfectiousPerfection Camstasia studio and Premiere

[Oweeos]
