The cool thing is i did all this in Gimp so i didn't spend 700+ dollars on PS. All i did in this one is blurred/smudged the Bg, added a some C4Ds to add a little depth, and did a little bit of clipping masks, and added some gradient maps and text and I'm done. Best thing i can suggest is doing some simple tutorials to start off. And as you go you start getting better at how the tools and stuff work and you in return start making more appealing work. Just don't get down on yourself, no one starts off making awesome work as you saw from my first ever avatar. Just give it time and try improving on your skills!

Not a lot of cropping i actually never crop an image unless i think it would look better in as a smaller image.

Renders: (Not 100% sure on what setting i have these on. I play with Soft light, Screen, Dodge.... to see what gives the best results. And then yes the gradient maps...)
