Photoshop special effects are amongst my favorite things to do with photographs.� I recently found a tutorial over at psdtuts.com that shows you how to convert a regular portrait photo into a Michelangelo-esque statue using a few photoshop tricks.� You can see my two attempts at following this tutorial below. One statue looks more like stone, I then added a column and some lighting.� I made the other statue look more like marble for a sleeker surface texture, I then added some angel wings.

    I think she’s actually to be found all over the net, I’m pretty sure that girl is the soft porn model known as katie fey. You’ll find her;)
