This is an overview of what masking is and how to use it. There are a lot of intricacies that I don't go over because I don't want to confuse people, but this should get you on your way towards stronger, faster and more effect use of Photoshop.

Though it sounds like minutia, I use these techniques constantly.

Te pic featured in this tutorial is Dumah - Angel of Dreams. Still a work in progress.

Enjoy!

Don't try to understand insanity... You'll go insane trying to understand and then you won't understand why you've been trying to understand a fellow insane person until you realize that you don't even understand yourself!

You are my hero man, :heart: I totally didn't know about clipping layers, and I always thought masking was a huge complicated mess. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Clipping mask I abuse all the time, but layer masking I have always failed at. This tut lays it all out in English and is seriously useful stuff.
