Awesome tutorial. The images of the masks is really informative, showing exactly what you've done. And I can see why you need a graphics tablet now! Many thanks.

i don't understand how to finish this... what do I do with all the layers after doing the dodge technique?

You do the burn layer too then turn off the 'tools' group and you're done. Flatten the image if your certain you need anything else.

I'm a little bit confused. You call them dodge and burn layers... are these the layers that you edited with the curves adjustment? Also, is there any actual burning/dodging... I feel like it's just using the white brush tool on the layer masks... Thanks.

It IS dodge and burn in the sense it lightens and darkens the photo. the difference is, this method also smooths out some of the skin textures, and more to the point, using masked layers means that it is non destructive, if you were to use the dodge and burn tools on photoshop then it will permanently change pixels, meaning if you screw up, you are stuck with it. even if you kept a duplicate layer below or a saved history state, youd still have to redo all your dodging/burning again, doing it this way means if you make a mistake you can just it over black on the mask layer and try again on that one spot. You can also further edit the mask layer to make it darker or lighter on just those areas instead of adding another curves adjustment which would affect the whole image.

And yes, the 'dodge and burn' layers are the curves layers from the previous tutorial. The curves layers make the image darker and lighter, then you fill the masks white, and paint in black on the respective layers to bring out the shadows and highlights that you want emphasised.

Thank you very much for this tut! It's genius xD
I have a problem though; When I try to lighten the darker areas in the dodge layer, the mask isn't the one that's painted over, it's the actualy image, what dod I do about this? It's getting so frustrating :/

mikeomni In reply to SheerExtasy [2011-01-05 05:14:10 +0000 UTC]

You have to make sure you click the actual mask attached to the layer you're on, not the layer's image. A little box goes around whichever's selected so you can tell what you're working on. Another good way to know once you've selected the mask, is that your foreground/background colors turn to black and white [as they're the only colors that effect masks]

I love this! Best. Tut. Evar! It's pretty hard to do, because I use the touchpad of my laptop, but still the results are amazing! I'm doing a retouch of a photo of one of my friend's right now... Oh and could you make us a tutorial about make-up sometime..? That would be great ^^

I don't understand this tutorail, both parts.

In part 1 by the D&B process. I can't create a black mask.

In part 2 by point - 2. I see the same thing, there changed nothing on the picture.

Can you send me a note, with a clear explanation of both question?

I have a little trouble understanding.
Do you only paint on the dodge layer? not the burnt? and which is the dodge layer, the one that's named layer 1 copy?

I'm sorry for lots of questions, this is harder than I thought it would be

great tut overall though!

Well, i know that is TOO much too ask... but do you thing that you could make a tutorial for these effect in a full body with background photo... becouse i just LOVED this, and i couldnt do it in a photo with full body and background, and it was VERY frustating... PLZ! ;-;
Oh sorry about the english, iΒ΄m brazilian and got a poor english.. OH and i loved What Is Love in the ending of the tutorial, such a great song ^^
thankssss :*

First of all, this is not th right place to post your comment. This tutorial has nothing to do with my video tutorial.

Second of all, im quite busy so I cant make free time to make a tutorial just because you want it.

Ill think about it, but cant promise anything...
