I'm currently heavily retouching a digital photograph and it's made me curious. How did 1980's advertising creatives do what is commonly reffered to as "airbrushing" photographs before the introduction of Adobe Photoshop.

Well there are still lots of photographers who practice film based photography such as myself so when we have to touch up a print (or touch up our negatives for that matter) we simply pull out our fine-hair brushes, and our touch up ink/paint. There are also touch up pens that do the same job, though I have never had much luck with them. As for applying the touch-up paint, It isn't exactly a difficult process but it does require quite a bit of patience. If you are curious about the tools that are used, here is a link

i'm a commonly used and digital artist, which ability i will paintings with traditonal media, like pencil, pens, paints, yet i will additionally do stuff on the laptop, like on the laptop courses like MS Paint, and the GIMP, and on occasion freehand with a mouse. They each and each have their reward. i'm a self-taught artist, so outdoors of the time-honored college software (which does no longer help plenty), I study from my own expirience and trial and mistake.
