Manipulate Smoke to Create Hyper-Real Images – Screencast
“Learn to apply the Warp Tool effectively and a few other tricks to make smoke look like a skull. This technique has a variety of outcomes and works well with water, clouds and a whole bunch of other stuff. This is probably more for intermediate users, as I guide you through the process well, but not every Warp Grid point handle move. Let’s get started!” James Davies
Here is a link to the written version of the tutorial Manipulate Smoke to Create Hyper-Real Images and the video version is below.

Looks nice, will check it out later.
But the link to the written version links to the screencast?
Great article. I havent messed around in Photoshop for ages, but this gave me a bit of inspiration!
Thanks for the tutorial!
The link is wrong, get rid of the -screencast at the end and it should work
great tutorial !! gavin if you read this would you mind creating a tutorial on how to get rid off hard backgrounds like for example how you got rid off the background of the tree in the tutorial HOW TO CREATE A SLICE OF NATURE .
if you can do that that would be a great help for me thanks again :)

Great! I wish it was shorter though! You can also do this with long exposure light paintings, even without using the Glowing Edges filter
I can’t get the link to the written tutorial to work…An hour hong video tutorial is too long.
I just fixed the link for you. Sorry about that.
