PSD Tuts: Applying a Realistic Tattoohttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif

"Our first guest tutorial comes from Arik, if you'd like to write a tutorial read more about how you can contribute.

There are lots of tutorials on the web that claim to achieve a realistic tattoo effect. Usually these tutorials instruct the user to import an image they want to use as a tattoo and to set it to overlay. Out of experience I can say that this does NOT look like a tattoo. It looks like...well...an overlayed image.

In this tutorial I will be demonstrating an advanced technique to achieve a realistic tattoo. We will be using masks, adjustment layers, displacement maps and several brushing skills will be applied."
