Flight Risk - Example Working PSD

As seen in the 2014 Desktopography release! 

For a very limited time, you can download a lightly annotated working PSD of "Flight Risk", a popular piece from the 2014 Desktopography release. 

There's no better way to learn Photoshop tricks than to disassemble a source file and see how it was built.

See how I organize my file, arrange layers, and how I leverage nested smart-objects for non-destructive editing. It's a tangible lesson in Photoshop best-practices.

Requirements:

• Basic knowledge of Photoshop
  
• Photoshop CS4 +
  
• 300mb of spare disk space
  

I would recommend saving a backup copy of the PSD before you begin to deconstruct it. That way if you make irreparable changes, you have something to revert back to later.
