Perhaps the best of all the Photoshop Tutorials for those who wish to master masking. Superb job of teaching the basics of how selections can be added subtracted and combined to increase your masking efficiency. Willmore gets right down to the methods with more focus and less jabber than some other presenters. You get more important substance for the time and money you spend for this incredibly great tutorial. Highly recommended !

Ben Willmore is an excellent instructor and he wow'd me with some of the explanations and tips. Excellent stuff. I am wondering though why he did not touch on using channels to make a selection. An older method than 'Refine Edge' but very effective leaving less of the overflow that refine edge seems to, especially the background carry over on wispy hair. I would love him to cover that at some stage. Thanks. Tim
