I learnt everything from you in 2020. I was doing this exact thing back then, making Renaissance portraits for pets and people. It kickstarted my career as a graphic designer. Today I am an illustrator, and the world has changed and AI is making our lives hell. But the happiness I found then and now just by learning from you and creating artworks that brought joy to so many people around the world, is that satisfaction is everything. And it wins over anything AI and people who depend on AI can ever find.
It means a lot, and thanks so much for sharing that. Manual editing, retouching, and the entire process of creating art has a level of charm, control, and magic that AI just can't touch.
I used to make Photoshop tutorials before TH-cam, so they were images & written instructions on a website. Video tutorials were a game changer, but Unmesh really took it to the next level. So clear and concise. Much respect to this man!
It never ceases to amaze me how great of an educator you are. You anticipate questions and issues people might experience, and you still leave time to explore smaller aspects of color grading even if they're not a major part of the edit. Simply incredible work, I'm always so impressed and learn a lot.
Love your videos! By far the best Photoshop tutorials. Your Photoshop for beginners course really progressed my skills (going back to basics!) and your other videos help with with specific needs. Plus, you’re a great host and I love your accent. Keep up the great work! :)
Even though i use Affinity Photos i watch your tutorial for years already and they applicable there as well. thank you for being a fantastic presenter making things understandable and easy to follow.
Thanks Unmesh. It’s the double clicking in the curves adjustment to load values and then putting them into other areas that is ace. Thanks for the reminder.👍
You should be just as recognized as any renaissance painter. Seriously. We live in the future, and you have the techniques, both easy and deeper options. Thank you for the content, how do I buy a T-Shirt (even though I'm a broke Photoshop artist ) I will still buy one!
Great video! I've learned from you a lot within those past few years! So now it's time for me to teach you one thing in return... it's not a renaissance painting. Leonardo da Vinci, Sandro Botticelli, Rafael Santi and Michelangelo Buonarotti - the big four of renaissance stream. They all used vibrant colors and the portraits would always feel very formal, trying to mimic ancient Greece and idealized. Now baroque, on the other hand could be divided into two streams: classical baroque (very formal, trying to mimic ancient Greece but more successful at catching human-likeness than renaissance in my opinion) and Caravaggisti (strong lights and shadows, usually warm and earthly tones, heavily influenced by Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio). Baroques well known artists are Caravaggio, Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, Johannes Vermeer, Diego Velázquez and Jacques-Louis David. This style also features oil paints an oh dear, would you look at all those dynamic poses!
Fantastic! A very well explained and enjoyable tutorial. I'm sure I'll get ideas for my retouching from what you've explained. Thanks for this great work.👏👏👏
Excellent! Curves adjustment layers are amazing. I love the funky Renaissance music at the beginning and end. I'm sure they listened to that track while painting back in the Renaissance too!

You know I'm in love with Curves, in Photoshop, haha. Thanks so much, I do spend a considerable amount of time choosing tracks, appreciate you noticing.

Hello Unmesh, I always learn new things from your tutorials even basic things like curves. I hope in the future you can also provide advanced tutorials about affinity photo, because many have started to switch and affinity has many similarities with photoshop. thanks
A very slightly more accurate way of checking black and white values, is to use view>proof setup>custom>dot gain 20%. Better for showing accurate luminosity taking the colours into account. Also handy because once you've set it up you can quickly check anytime with ctrl+y.
Old paintings were not originally yellow, brown, or amber color, but over the centuries, paintings have accumulated dirt, and varnish has deteriorated from clear to yellow.
Fenomenal Tutorial, now I have a question: How would you get the "Mistiness" of Renaissance art, If I was filming, I would use a "Black Mist 1/2" , other option , I would use a Mist Machine or Mist Spray, how to create thar suttle glare and fuzziness, Gaussian + Grain perhaps?
I would love to see a tutorial on when you switch the color to from RGB to CMYK... a lot of times the color completely changes when you do this. How can you retain the color after you switch from RGB to CMYK for print purposes
The fact that you have to do all these steps for what I consider a common task reminds me why I hate postprocessing so much and why I have so many raw images that will never see the light of day. It's like for copy pasting a file you'd have to write the code to do it. Someone needs to make a better photo manipulation tool.
Unmesh Brother... I have a question about Screens to use while using Photoshop... Which laptop/PC screen is the best to use photoshop. Im getting a lot of color variations while using it in different Laptops and PCs. Please answe this. For example... If i edit the picture in my laptop and send it to my phone, the colors are looking sooo bright in my phone than the laptop. It happens all the time. Please solve this issue by answering this. Thanks
Is there a similar method to color grading for video, maybe in LR (Premiere makes it too complicated)? If I remember well there is a way to sample and match colors there.

You know, when I see this guy every day, I feel like he's better than adobe
I’m telling you😂
Just excellent job! No AI, no plugins, no third-party software only curves and masks only hardcore, Thanks Unmesh 😉
After all these years you never fail to amaze me.
Unmesh proving yet once more why he is the Photoshop hero we need, but don't deserve.
I can imagine Rembrandt would enjoy watching you work! Such an inspiration.
I wish I could hang out and work with him! So much to learn.
In all the history of Photoshop, I don't think there was or will be anyone like this guy. His expertise and presentation are both amazing.
I used to make Photoshop tutorials before TH-cam, so they were images & written instructions on a website. Video tutorials were a game changer, but Unmesh really took it to the next level. So clear and concise. Much respect to this man!
what about Seetharaman Narayanan?

Brilliant! This is why you're The Master.
As always, an incredible video, with a mindblowing workflow, given by a minblowing instructor!
These color grading tutorials are 🔥 Umesh.
Oh wow, you're the wizard of Photoshop!!!
Thanks Unmesh. It’s the double clicking in the curves adjustment to load values and then putting them into other areas that is ace. Thanks for the reminder.👍
Finally I learned perfect colour grading. Thank you
Your a Saint Of digital Community helping so many people's 😊

At least a sticker or something.

As usual it's very interesting, well explained, and very useful to know how it's done and why ! Thank you for all I learn with you.
You explain things well and stay up to date with changes so we can totally follow a long.
Absolutely brilliant!!! Thank you, Sir. Rembrandt would have been proud.
I know you know it, but you are the BEST! ⭐ Thanks for this beautiful tutorial 👍
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your support!
I found this tutorial incredibly helpful as the techniques may be applied to so many images. Thank you Unmesh!

*Time to turn myself into a great grandson of Mona Lisa*
Why i am getting nervous while watching this video 😅 Unmesh Rocked (as always) 🥵 Viewers Shocked (as always)🤐

Sometimes I wonder if the guys at adobe knows that they have these features in their product😂
Wow! How do work this stuff out, all respect to you

I am using photoshop almost from 8 years, while watching this video i felt like i lost my brain cells 😅
Same here 😂
Same
aren't we all😂😂
My brain exploded.
What am I about to get into lol
Is there a similar method to color grading for video, maybe in LR (Premiere makes it too complicated)? If I remember well there is a way to sample and match colors there.
@Mr. Dinda, I have been trying to figure out how to sample tones from B&W images. ?
