"Adobe Photoshop is a registered trademark of Adobe Systems, Inc., and I am in no way affiliated with Adobe. Alright. So, on this tutorial, I'm going to show you how to use the burn tool to actually burn in some more wrinkles. So you want to go down to where the dodge tool was, and click on the burn tool. You want to bring your exposure up to seventy-five, once again, up here, as you can see. Let me zoom in for you the exposure. You want to bring that up. And you want to set this to mid-tones, as it is already. Look at your brush and make sure that the hardness is down. And what you want to do is you want to go ahead and drag over, right in between where you hit the dodge. So you've got little pieces like that to make it kind of look like its little bumps in there, kind of to give it a texture. And that's-let me zoom in for you, just a second. As you can see, it's slowly starting to look like a piece of tape with texture. Not exactly looking like tape yet, but it will look like tape here in just a second. So, I'm going to move onto my next clip and show you how to actually use the plastic wrap filter to give it a real artsy-type plastic look."
