There were so many Photoshop Tutorials created that I had a hard time limiting our monthly Photoshop round out to just ten articles. I have decided to share a list of ten photo manipulation tutorials that are a mix of beginner to advanced tutorials.<\/p>\n<h3>Design a Rusted Metal Face Manipulation with Abstract Falling Lines in Photoshop<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/metal-portrait-flatten-500x637.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; margin: 10px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"Rusted Metal Face Manipulation \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/metal-portrait-flatten-500x637_thumb.jpg?resize=600%2C381\" alt=\"Rusted Metal Face Manipulation \" width=\"600\" height=\"381\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<p><em>\u201cIn this <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.psdvault.com\/photo-effect\/design-a-rusted-metal-face-manipulation-with-abstract-falling-lines-in-photoshop\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>tutorial<\/em><\/a><em>, I will show you the steps I took to Design a Rusted Metal Face Manipulation with Abstract Falling Lines in Photoshop. The Aim of this tutorial is to cover some interesting techniques when it comes to applying textures to human skin, as well as creating simple abstract lines via the Warp Tool.\u201d <\/em>I consider this a more advanced tutorial simply because you have to mess with the hair when using the selection tool. But this is a photo manipulation and it doesn\u2019t have to be perfect. So if you are comfortable with the selection, try it out anyways.<\/p>\n<h3>Create a Surreal Urban City Montage with Lightning Effect in Photoshop<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/poster-montage-flatten-492x700.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"background-image: none; margin: 10px auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: block; float: none; padding-top: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"Create a Surreal Urban City Montage \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.evolutionarydesigns.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/poster-montage-flatten-492x700_thumb.jpg?resize=600%2C855\" alt=\"Create a Surreal Urban City Montage \" width=\"600\" height=\"855\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<p>\u201c<em>In this <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.psdvault.com\/photo-effect\/create-a-surreal-urban-city-montage-with-lightning-effect-in-photoshop\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>tutorial,<\/em><\/a><em> I will show you the steps I took to Create a Surreal Urban City Montage with Lightning Effect in Photoshop .
