Superb video, call me weird but quite therapeutic in a strange way, lol. Who knew so much work needs to go into improving reflections, makes the cleaning up work seem quite easy by comparison. You really are a master at this, thanks for sharing you work, all the best, cheers ! Curious if you save a copy as you go, I know you have the history steps to work with but having to repeat this all over would be very testing indeed.
Hey AoToGo, thanks for your comment. I do save the file as I work, you can see the layers created, this give me control over the image, I can go back to the original look, or tweak aspects of the new layers created, save as a PSD file. I wouldn't need to do all this work again when I go back to the file.
Hey. The changes I made to the image are numerous. So not one technique but many. The retouching was about 2 hours in total. It just would be a long video to show it all in normal speed. Please let me know what it is you would like to see more specifically and I can think about my future video content. Thanks.
@@PhillipPilkingtonPhotographer yes I would definitely would like to see how you apply gradient and mask some part. I feel like I understand something but not fully. Thanx for the reply!
@@JoeCosentino hey. Yeah it is too fast to follow. This video is not really about following it like as you mention. I say in my voice over that this video would be too long and boring to do a real time version. But I will do another video in future showing the retouching in more detail so you can follow along.
hello, thanks for your comment. I did a cutout of the area, then pasted black colour into that area. The product area I was fixing is black, so it's fine to add a black layer, then to blend it in where needed.

Hello! Do you have a tutorial on your technique? Very nice job!

Would love to see a product done in real time, the fast version makes it hard to follow the pointer as you move around and select tools and layers

IS THERE ANY FILTERS FOR THIS TASK
No filters. No plugins. Just Photoshop.
