  • @pixelkat1819

    Wanna save time? Make two brush presets. One white, soft 50% brush. Make another preset using black, soft 50% brush. Since I usually use the dodge/lighten curves layer first, I made an action that creates both of the curves layer, but at the end select the white brush preset you made and then end the action on the mask for the dodge/ lighten layer. That way you dont have to constantly keep selecting a brush, setting the opacity and softness everytime you run the dodge and burn action. I know it seems like minimal time savings but if you spend allot of time retouching it adds up over time. I also have a simple action that makes a white mask, but I end the action by having it select the black brush preset. Saves time. Same when I run the action to make a black mask. The action also selects the white brush preset. Simple but it just takes out the drudgery of having to constantly select and adjust the correct brush everytime you make a mask or run the dodge and burn action.
