I’ve always wanted to apply effects to a photo which creates the illusion that you’re looking at a miniature model, like the examples here. It seemed, though, that all the tutorials for creating such effects were done using Photoshop – a program I don’t use. I couldn’t find any tutorials for doing the same thing in Pixelmator. However, I’ve discovered something just as good which takes moments to do this to your photos…

These effects were applied to my photos at TiltShiftMaker. Simply upload your photo, select the area you want in focus, save your image.

I’d still like to be able to achieve this effect in Pixelmator, just so I can feel the satisfaction of having done all the hard work myself. If you have a tutorial please share!
