I am pretty sure that there is not one person in the world that knows that program better that this absolute legend!

They say different parts of the brain handle creative tasks and different ones handle problem solving, maths and other technical stuff
This man uses 100% of his brain and it's amazing to watch what he comes up with

This is impresive. This guy is the Jimi Hendrix of Photoshop.

I'm speechless, i'm been using photoshop for 20 years and I don't know how but you always find the way to impress me and make feel like i'm a newbie in this 😅 Thanks you so much!

I haven't even watched the video yet, but I see "Texturelabs" I thumbs up. You sir are a master of the craft. The way you break down the steps into steps that aren't too difficult for the beginner to follow along while also not being too "step-by-step" that could upset the more intermediate and advanced users is truly something no other YouTuber has quite nailed down as well as you. Keep up the great content and thank you for sharing your knowledge with the community!

[bouddhas]

I have no idea how your brain came up with that but the process is as genius as the result. Amazing!

[shonthelawn]

I hope you're incredibly wealthy (or at least very financially stable) because you honestly deserve it for sharing these tutorials. No one else even comes close.

The GOAT Photoshop user is the one who can do anything he wants using Photoshop. Inversely, Brady can make Photoshop do whatever he wants.

You are a true Photoshop wizard. Thank you for these awesome tutorials.

I've been using photoshop professionally for over ten years and have built a lot of actions in my time and feel quite strong with my skillset, particularly in hotkeys and quick use of the software. This is hands down the greatest photoshop video I have ever seen. From the INCREDIBLE edit with all your visualisations, to the little bits of knowledge (that actions look for the first layer with that name from the bottom of the layer list???), this is a phenomenal tool. Thank you so much, you have a new subscriber for life!

I've spent years trying to achieve this effect successfully in Photoshop (and have gotten very close!) but this is unreal. True mastery of the program! Anyone interested in the origin of this effect check out the mindblowing 70's video synthesis of Bill Etra's Rutt-Etra Video Synthesizer as used by Steina & Woody Vasulka.

Man, wasn't expecting it at all, but this is the perfect tutorial for me. This is the perfect solution to creating cool art for my laser engraver!

These tutorials not only showcase cool effects and expert level Photoshop use, they are the best explained tutorials i've seen anywhere on YT. The amount of work that must've gone into explaining depth maps and distortion is insane. Also, the pacing is excellent. Meaning that if you're already very familiar with those concepts it's still interesting and fun to watch. Excellent work!

[pyro]

I've been using photoshop for over 7 years now I have never seen anyone or anything in level of your knowledge about this application
You are goat man 🙌

[MatteoMeniniDesign]

complete mindset of the designer = Texturelabs, multidisciplinary with a personal touch that is normally missing in the possible portfolios and works of designers

[bitterboyblue]

Anyone else here auto LIKES anything Brady uploads even before watching the whole video? The way this man understands the inner workings of Photoshop never ceases to amaze me!

[Noovbl]

Incredible tutorial. Absolute peak of Photoshop guides on youtube

[ZrhioZ]

AI is afraid of this guy! Seriously I love each one of your tutorials, I've seen all of your videos and every time you publish a new one I'm completely sure that I'm going to learn a new tool that I've never used before. You are in a different league than any other creator when it comes to Photoshop.

[WesMaizter]

[Prvkatr]
