      25 years here, thing is you have to relearn photoshop all the time since its features are pretty different from what they were a decade ago.

      @@adilator Same here. I think it really depends as well on what you do. I was a commercial illustrator so I never used filters and plug ins. It just wasn't what the clients wanted, it was all product stuff, super clean, no textures, no gimmicks.

    You are a Photoshop Chaman...
    You talk directly with the spirit of the program....
    I can see you dancing around your computer in the moon light,
    drums going hard on the background,
    herbs burning in one hand and eagle feathers in the other,
    with a jaguar head and skin over your head,
    waiting for this techniques to be reveal to you,
    so you can communicate them to us, the simply and common photoshop users...
    Beyond words.
    I have my mind completely blown out by you many, many times in your channel.
    Thank you man, I truly appreciate your work.

      Yes, nothing beats the real thing, but I've been an artist for many decades, having used computer art making software since before Photoshop existed, and this technique absolutely blows my mind.
      It's not perfect, and it can probably be improved in the details like maybe simulating the depth of the paper and shadows, and then going in and laying down each piece of digital paper individually... but for something super quick and relatively painless, it's nothing short of amazing.

    What awesome effect--the the texture layer mapping and the ability to adjust the cutout shape sizes with the levels layer makes this effect so versatile. The collage textures are really awesome but you can always do different scribble textures, or water color or even hair patterns and get crazy cool stuff. I love this!!!
