:Boxy look:

.:Begin: Open up your canvas, I usually begin with a 1000x1000 size, add your images. For this style, it works best to keep your images related, such as all from the same photo shoot, or magazine. I think the key to this look is repetitive, to have things over and over, changing them slightly each time.I chose images of Tobey from the same shoot, but in both B&W and color. Make a new layer right above the background/canvas. Select the Marquee tool and draw an rectangle or square as large or small as desired. Click on your forground color and chose a color that you want as your base theme. Try to stick with the same hues, for example, all browns a few shades off, or all blues a few shades off. Fill in the marquee by holding down the ALT and DELETE keys, this should fill in the square with your foreground color, next deselect the box (select>deselect). Make as many layers as you want, repeating this process, using different shades and different sizes. You can see the beginning

2.:Apply effects & modes: Next apply any effects to your images that you want to use, such as smart blur, glow etc. I have found that for the more intense look, apply fewer effects.. for a lighter, screened look you can use glow and blur more liberally. Place your images on the squares/rectangles you have made and play with the blend modes. Again, if you are going for something light and soft, you are going to want to use blend modes like soft light and screen on perferably colored images. For a more intenese or darker look, you will want to use overlay, multiply or hardlight and for these modes, black and white can work as well as color. For me, B&W looks great on multiply on these earthy shades. If you do use color, you might want to desaturate the image a bit. Next, do your eyes and lips and apply the burn tool if you want to intensify any certain areas. You can see in.I have done his eyes, set him to screen (bottom layer) and multiply (top layer).

3.:Rinse, Repeat: Repeat your images... play with angles, sizes, hue etc. Try something different, I think one of the keys to this look is repetitive images, different effects or colors applied to them, add some thick lines between the images in a complimentry color, have these lines angled as well, repeat images and experiment with placement and compisition. Crop images in strange places, like focus on the hands, lips or neck. The unusual usually works well for this style.

4.:Mask: You are going to want to add some roughness to the piece, life isn't smooth and neither should your collage. First, add a layer mask to your marquee layers, then using brush of choice, mask out the background. Take out as much or as little as you like, depending again, on the intensity you are aiming for. For the lighter, soft look, mask out a good portion of the bg.I ended up only using my own brushes. Also, play with gradiants a bit, these will help intensify colors while allowing you to mask and change blend modes.
5.:Final Result: Now, as you can see, I went down a different path while adding the final touches to this collage. I decided to go to colored background, added more images, did lighting, **ٍ**ٍ**ٍ**ٍ and added some **ٍ**ٍ**ٍ**ٍure on top. I did not use any premade **ٍ**ٍ**ٍ**ٍures for this piece, rather colored layers with filters/gradiants applied. Remember, the key is repeat, color schemes, angles and lines. The more you play, the more you will come across something that works for you. Here is the
