25 Photoshop Tutorials for Fantasy Effects

"The main idea is to learn various photoshop skills while having fun. As you follow the steps, you'll see how combining simple effects can transform an ordinary photo into a work of art. It just takes some creativity and patience. Photoshop affords us the ability to try different possibilities without worrying about permanent damage to our work, use that to your advantage and experiment."

There are some interesting techniques spread across these 25 articles. My favorite was the planetscape one, the finished picture of which is pasted above. The ideas and the execution are quite simple actually, in most of the tutorials so that is an added bonus. Even though the tutorials are fantasy related, I feel that the ideas can be used ubiquitously. Try it out and show us some of your samples.
