Let's give our creativity and our knowledge of Photoshop a boost with this week's Pixel Perfect video with Bert Monroy!

This week's video will add a bit of sparkle to your life! (Especially for those of you who were hoping for jewelry for Christmas!)

Here is the embedded video page, and here is the high definition link (much better quality, but large file: 60-120MB).

You will need a new file, about 1200x800px, 72 dpi, white.

Here's what I came up with.

Bill, that looks excellent! Those rubies are priceless. And the car, well, a classic!

Thanks Reka. Bert mentioned making four diamonds and copying them. I made just one, defined it as a brush preset and used the brush engine tools to scatter the sizes and angles. For Bert's work that would probably not be adequate, but for me it was a nice timesaving workaround.

Thanks again so much for posting these ... they're fun and helpful. C'mon everyone ... give it a try!!
