Digital Matte Painting

Being in love with the art of Matte Painting, I collected these tutorials over one year from numerous online-resources and eventually compiled them into this document. Originally intended for personal use only, I thought that maybe some people out there might be interested too, so I deceided to release them to the public. No big thing, and defenitely nothing new - I just gathered these tutorials to have them all in one place. And if any - or all - of these tutorials happen to be new to you - even better!
