what toho tuts is
Ever since I entered the TH fandom in 2008 and began creating graphics featuring my favorite band members, I've gotten much of the same question: "How do you do it?" I created this for the sole purpose of answering that question.
In early 2009 I began making photomanipulations featuring Bill Kaulitz. Photomanipulation was a completely different direction in terms of Photoshopping, but I enjoyed it very much and just couldn't stop. In the process I learned a lot.

For me, Photoshop is a way to create the ideas in my head and bring them to life. And despite what anyone says, it's art. I want other people to be able to do the same, and enjoy what they're doing. This is my thank you to everyone who has ever supported me and my artwork, and my invite to everyone who wants to become an experienced Photoshopper.

This site will not do the work for you- unfortunately, you will have to do it on your own! :P
Many tutorials only teach you how to do specific things- such as a color balance, curves, etc. I am going to try to teach you how to use these techniques, but in a way so you will learn how to use them in order to get the effects you want.

Remember, as long as you have the time and patience to devote to it and are willing to learn, you can become wonderful at anything. Keep creating!
