It's crazy how easy it is to get off track, even following closely and pausing, and doing it a step at a time.

[@chrispysaid]

YEESH are you kidding me?? The quality of this tutorial is *incredible* - not rushed and not drawn out, dropping helpful little shortcuts here and there without treating your viewers like it's their first time in Photoshop - absolutely brilliant. Thank you, keep doing what you do!

[@Texturelabs]

Wow that's really cool to hear... It's a bit of guesswork figuring how how fast or slow to go, what level of skills to assume, etc... but glad to hear that feedback!

[@TheDinnermoney]

@@Texturelabs Yeah, pitched perfectly with so much good info.

[@Vinz3ntR]

@@Texturelabs i find myself struggling more than once with all the masking, clipping masks and so on and the way you can apply these techniques especially when you combine them. Maybe you could do a tutorial on that? I also have to pay close attention when you're talking about the option and command key as I'm a Windows user and nowadays that's basically the biggest difference between the Mac and Windows versions of Photoshop and illustrator.

[@ElectricalSwift]

@@Vinz3ntR option is ctrl and command is alt

[@martingjsmith]

I wholeheartedly agree. The attention to detail is superb.

[@rocnathan]

I've followed and applied a bunch of your tutorials now, and every single one is amazing. Thanks so much!

[@erraticspace]

Really appreciate your videos. Especially like that you vocalise the actions you're taking so that I can follow without looking at the screen.

[@TeriAnderson]

I'm really enjoying your tutorials. Many tutorials are way too fast and it's easy to get lost. I can't wait to incorporate your techniques. thank you!

[@tadleger7171]

I've been using Photoshop since 1995 & your tutorials are a revelation. Also the kind of effects you're doing very much applies to the style of work I do. Which is mostly horror film packaging & 1 sheets. Great stuff!

[@mtnerd]

So well done!! I've been using Photoshop for years and I'm excited to have learned so much about tools I've never bothered to play with. Thank you!!

[@deziograff]

i agree ... i am truthfully impressed! I've also been using photoshop for over 20yrs. I like to check tutorials every now and then just to be sure I'm not falling back on any important features or tips ... and usually, I find one or two points I think "ah nice ... clever ... " ... However ... never have i been so impressed by all the tricks and tips. So many parameters and use of filters that I never thought about ... really impressive! Great job please keep em coming ... I've seen 3 in a row and just filled pages of notes

[@soundoftheatom]

This is the greatest Photoshop video I have ever seen on KZbin. It is absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for putting out these incredible tutorials.

[@user-nc4ll4qj8w]

I cannot thank you enough for this video tutorial! I'm study graphic design as a beginner and, even if English is not my first language, I do appreciate the crystal clear clarity of the instructions, not going back and forth, explaining the why's and helping me to realise a project I could not find instruction for. Just subscribed to your channel, you are the best instructor ever.

[@raybeer549]

My mind is blown. May have to watch this a dozen more times to get it all.

[@Cello85]

im not even finished watching this video i need to say you are great (and every other person behind texturelab) great videos great tecnhiques great RESULTS great explanation thanks so much

[@ccuny1]

I have only just subbed to this channel and I am binge-watching all the tuts. Liking them all, but this one is particularly intricate and beautifully made. Loving it. Thank you.

[@Texturelabs]

That's really cool to hear... ya lately I've made em a little more trimmed down, focusing on one thing... But looking forward to making a few more like this. Thanks!

[@denysparra1755]

men who teach you all this techniques? are you from this planet? did you learn by your self ? amazing every single video great job.. and thank you so much.

[@Jenneth]

This may be hands down the greatest Photoshop text tutorial on the internet. Such a cool result with minimal confusion, and the entire delivery was perfectly smooth and professional. Thanks so much!

[@ndc-01]

The average level of your videos is absolut mastery. Mind blowing.

[@myerrandolph1033]

This tutorial is amazing! Thank you so much for showing the technique.

[@velvetbees]

Your tutorials are so good. They are not pablum for the masses. They are quality, and I think KZbin wants these kind of quality, original videos to rise to the top. So I am upvoting all your videos.

[@dandmwg]

What an excellent, easy to follow, interesting tutorial. Liked after about 30 seconds and subscribed.

[@imranahmedtoukir5391]

I loved the tutorial and learned a lot in it. I'm glad to find this channel. Thank you.

[@isabellabodnar1224]

This is a beast of a job.I was about 20% in when I screwed up and had to start all over again... This was like putting together a 10-drawer IKEA dresser - you mess up one thing 4 hours in, and have to start all over again. lol But wow -- the end results -- crazy effing good. I could never instinctually make this happen.

[@melb5996]

Definitely one of the most knowledgable Photoshop masters. I’m so jealous of the new Photoshop ( I am retired now and stuck with PS CS6 ) this used to take me hours to do back in the 90s with PS 2.0 😁

[@Texturelabs]

I hear ya, I also held onto CS6 for a very long time... the subscription makes more sense if you need After Effects and all the rest. Cheers!

[@SiThu-oe6cd]

The best photoshop channel that i ever seen. Thank you so much sir.

[@aashxq]

Damn this is the channel I was looking for so long, Keep up the good work You Deserve more subs.

[@Texturelabs]

Nice! Glad you found the channel, thanks

[@thedog6009]

Still my favorite so far!

[@jessemkahn]

This the fourth video of yours I’ve watched. Each one has been amazing. I’ve used Photoshop for 25 years and am blown away by how much you’re teaching me.

[@Texturelabs]

That's a very nice compliment, thank you. For what seems to be a simple program, I keep finding new stuff as well!

[@musicopata]

15 years of experience here and i’m equally blown away!!!

[@danielmogford1429]

Another 25+ years using Photoshop here and still learning from amazing tutorials - and teachers - like this. Incredible, thank you : )

[@hermanlopez2945]

Thank you so much for sharing, these videos are amazing. So much to learn here.

[@Gadalac]

Seriously incredible work!

[@zizak143]

I really loved this. Good job. I'd still work on blending the shadow a bit since it's too black where it touches the letter. But overall very good non destructive process.

[@laserfloyd]

Time to update my resume to say I have "some" knowledge of Photoshop. 😅 All jokes aside, I love learning these new techniques. Lots of new or updated features over the past few years have made far more things possible in Photoshop. Subbed! :)

[@shift5709]

This was so awesome! Thank you very much for sharing!

[@umbrellacreativebris]

Your tutorials are so good man! Thank you so much for making this one.

[@Texturelabs]

My pleasure. Appreciate that!

[@jasonwines]

Thanks for this, It was a lot of fun. As others have commented, the pace was great. I'm novice at best and I almost kept up. My example wasn't quite as nice likely because I went rouge on the font. I'm going to try from memory, with your selected font.

[@luvhopefullie727]

Your video was very helpful. You are an amazing teacher!! Thank you.

[@kelsenarchioli9843]

Awesome!!! Amazing!!! The BEST stone carving tutorial in Photoshop I've ever seen. It looks 3D, fake 3D. Congratulations and keep on.

[@Texturelabs]

That's cool of you to say! I've been finally embracing the actual 3d tools a bit more recently, but I find the fake 3d to be more fun. Thanks!

[@glitchdilemma4200]

you are my new inspiration

[@moreorlesslikeso]

Another great tutorial! I always wonder how one could possibly come up with all those tricks which really refine the image... I sit and watch in awe, actually.

[@Texturelabs]

That's very cool to hear. At the first studio I worked at, there was an awesome senior artist that let me go through all of his files and deconstruct... saved my butt!

Cool tutorial!

[@himansusekharrana4924]

Just Awesome..

[@these510]

Thank you and you are right about the 3D. I worked with it for years and it ran horribly. But now it doesn't matter because once again Adobe has shown how they take care of their customers. they removed it. Didn't lower the price any. Blender is terrific. But back to your tuts; they are excellent!
