Now, after completing my magazine cover, i have discovered elements of photoshop, that before, I didn't know how to use, or what they even were. I did however find Photoshop very frustrating to work with as a beginner, as I was unsure about most things to do with it, but now I feel more comfortable with it and as if I could use it again.I learnt how to use the magnetic lasso tool, the idea behind the layering system, and how to manage and create them, and also the magic wand. I still think I do need to keep working with photoshop a lot of if I do want to improve my skills on it, but hopefully that'll come with the more I use it. I don't think this as it stands looks as if it would be sold in a shop, so there's a lot I need to get to grips with to try and make the appearance of it better.
I really struggled to produce something anywhere near the standard of Ray-Gun, with both time and knowledge of skills lacking badly. I feel for my first attempt it was a decent attempt, and hope to produce a lot better in future.
Tom. Can you add more detail to this post please. What skills have you acquired and which do you need to develop. Does this look like a 'real' magazine? What things would you like to improve? Were you able to emulate the style of Raygun or were you prevented from doing so because of time contraints and the limitations of the technology.
