Awesome photoshop filter pack: Alien Skin’s Eye Candy

For those of you who use photoshop professionally I would recommend the following filter pack. Eye Candy is probably one of (if not) the best out there. It really does some amazing things as shown in the video. The only downfall is that it costs $199. That’a a steep price tag in my opinion for an add-on, that’s why I only recommend it for people making money doing editing, otherwise it’s just not worth it for the casual photoshop guru.
