You’ve made it! It’s part 12 and we’re wrapping up this series on how to retouch images in Photoshop. This final step is all about creating realistic grain and how to use it, not as some cheap Instagram grain effect, but instead to smooth the tones in your image and remove digital banding in any blurred edges or gradients in our image. I’ll show you how I mix things up to create grain that is sharp and crunchy and does not look digital at all.
