Tutorial : How to get perfect skin!
Nov 20th
Have you ever wished you could have perfect skin? Have you ever wished you could get rid of all the acne and pimples and blemishes and scars on your face? Now you can!
Well, at least in your photographs. 
Do you have a near-perfect portrait of yourself, that is embellished by a pimple? Don’t you just hate when that happens? In this tutorial, I will show you how to get rid of all the unflattering marks on your face using Adobe Photoshop mostly by just using two tools. Yes, just two! You will be surprised at how easy it is to do it! So, let’s get started.
Step 1:
I’ll be using this photograph below as an example. You, you can dig up a photograph of yourself to try. Come on now, don’t be shy. Bring the photograph in to Photoshop, preferably using the biggest resolution version of that photograph that you have.
At this point, I would colour-correct the photograph first before continuing with the editing. Not sure how to? Feel free to read my tutorial on how to colour-correct your photos first. Don’t worry, we’ll wait.
Step 2:
Here’s the magic tool that you’ve been waiting for : Healing Brush Tool.

Tutorial: Quick Supper Fix.
Nov 13th
Hello and welcome to Mr. Malique’s 10min cooking segment!
I’m always home late on Mondays and Wednesdays. I rush to school right after work and sometimes the tummy will growl even before i reach home. So here’s a quick hunger fix, for workaholics out there. 
I’m not going to do a detailed tutorial, unlike my tutorial specialist extraordinaire , ZuL. Its quick, its cute, and its yummy!
- Cut a hole with a mug/cup
- Pre-toast the bread (optional, but i love mine toasted!)
- Place in pan with some butter or a super small teaspoon of oil (works better with Teflon non-stick pans!)
- Let a whole egg sink in, cover and wait..
Now your egg toast is done, eat it slowly…over a cup of warm milk and get to bed. Early bird catches the worm or as known as ‘don’t be late for work!’ But if you still can’t sleep, like a certain Mr.Malique, photoshop your egg toast creation and laugh alone in your room at 1 freaking a.m in the morning!

Tutorial : 4 simple steps to colour-correct your photos!
Nov 5th
I am glad that a lot of you found my previous tutorial on how to create your own clones helpful! And I saw several attempts based on the tutorial which looked so good that I felt like a parent watching his kid graduate from school! You guys rock!
This next tutorial, we’ll take it slow and easy, and touch on colour-correcting photographs for beginners. It’s nothing difficult and by the end of it, you might probably wonder why I even bothered to post something so simple. It’s just something that I figured most hobbyist-photographers (like myself) would find useful if they had only just started out.
Alright, the image in the screenshot below is what I’ll be using for this tutorial. You can pick out any image from your own collection to play with. If you’ve never colour-corrected your images before, I think you’d be amazed at what the outcome will be.

Tutorial : How to create your own clones!
Oct 29th
Have you ever wondered how Mr Malique creates his clones? Well, I’m here to teach you how to clone yourself just like the way Mr Malique does it!
Yeap, for my maiden post on this blog, I’m gonna do an in-depth tutorial on how to create your own clones, using Adobe Photoshop.
Here’s a list of tools you will need to be able to do this tutorial along with me.
-
A digital camera.
You got a spankin’ brand new DSLR like Yanni’s Nikon D80? Great! You got a point-and-shoot consumer camera? No problem too! What? You want to use a film camera? Erm… Possible… But will be more than doubly troublesome. Let’s keep things simple and I shall assume you own/can borrow a digital camera.
-
A tripod.
A must. Okay, not exactly a must, but it will make things so much easier. Easy is the keyword in this tutorial, okay?
-
Adobe Photoshop.
Any version will do, as long as it supports layer masking. If the graphics program you’re using allows you to mess around with layer masking, you’d probably be able to adapt the steps here to fit that program.
I shall be using Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended.
- Of course, you will need a computer. I shall assume you have access to one since you’re reading this entry. Mac or PC, whatever your choice may be, it will suffice. I will be using a PC.
