The course material is really good and very useful. but its very hard to follow the instructor as he doesn't show what are the values he chooses when it comes to selecting healing brushes, softness, clone stamp, different shortcuts etc. As a new person to the PS, its very hard to find out how he achieves what he is doing. May be it could have been helpful if the instructor explained most essential tools and techniques before each session. or it should have been mentioned that the course is not for new PS users. eg. i need to goto youtube to understand how to make the brush sizes bigger etc.

Buen curso con una gran descripción de los procesos más importantes a la hora del tratamiento/procesado de un retoque. Por supuesto no engloba todo lo que considero importante a la hora de retocar un retrato, pero por lo general considero que es un buen curso, buen contenido y Marcin explicada detalladamente cada paso que hace argumentando. Tal vez los subtítulos podrían mejorarse aunque se llega a entender bien.

I have been struggling with syncing settings for similar images and creating the correct white balance. I have a much more clear understanding.

This instructor goes too fast and doesnt show you how to get where hes at. He also wants you to download other software other than Photoshop. I paid for Photoshop Retouching course not all these other software.
