I'm trying out a new technique in Photoshop CS2 and I found this great tutorial on how to make miniature towns and such. I'm having a lot of fun with it and I'm going to be posting a few more if you all think you'd like to see them. It's an easy tutorial and one that is a lot of fun

:)PJ

oh and Here is where I found this full image to work with

This is full of great free images from which to work

WHAT IS MAN WITHOUT THE BEASTS? If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of the spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected. ~Chief Seattle VISIT MY GALLERY

Well, you followed that tutorial well and came up with this neat image. Unfortunately I don't have PSP and can't try this, but I did read the tutorial. Very interesting. This looks like a town in the UK.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

This is just amazing PJ. Although I know that it's real it somehow reminds me of the perfect backdrop created by a master model railroader. I would really like to try this, but alas, I have no photoshop. Please post more as I'm sure many of us would enjoy viewing this unique facet of photoshop......Neil
