I used this really beautiful stock picture of a nude. The background is nice, the girl is nice also. The perfect combination: Usually, this process is time consuming using just Photoshop, but in this tutorial I will use Reshade – Image Enlarger, a software with a great potential not only for enlarging images but for creating amazing effects in no-time. Another great thing about this software is that the image used doesn’t need preliminary preparations or other steps that Photoshop requires for obtaining the desired effect. In this case, the picture is really good, but you can try all this steps with any picture you want.
