Some tasty stuff in the latest Computer Arts Projects Magazine - Issue 91, December 2006.
This issue celebrates the rediscovery of Photoshop in a number of fields, from illustration and design to film and advertising. It showcases and speaks to users who have embraced this fresh approach, and shows you how to get the best from Photoshop in new contexts.
There is also a free 'Digital Artist Showcase' supplement (A5 size) with inspirational work and practical insights from ten digital artists:
Atomic Attack, Dwayne Bell, Jon Burgerman, Neil Duerden, FL@33, ISO50, Coneyl Jay, No Pattern, The Ronin and Vault49.
I like the first tip from Atomic Attack - 'Have an idea first' but best of all is Neil Duerden's tip - 'Have fun'. Yay!
