In the same vein as my last submission to the 2-D thread. I took a friend's picture and zombified it. The first one was a small picture of Aly.
This one is a nice, big headshot of our very own ebow...
The Before:
And
The After:
Both of them were done using Photoshops basic tools, brushes and layer modes. I did a lot of the texturing in seperate alpha channels and played with a few different techniques until I found one that suited the piece. I wanted to make the gash in his cheek go further up into his face, and I was also playing with the bone structure in his nose, but by the time I got there it looked a lot less photo realistic. Although I do still have all the masking layers I made for those effects. Maybe someday soon I'll re-release this one as an even deader zombie.
Adios,
Steve

in the most basic of terms, yes.
Alpha channels, however, are extra channel layers that you can use for a variety of purposes.
You'd be surprised just how much more you can achieve with Photoshop when you learn how to use alpha channels to their full potential. They can change the way you do... well... everything. From basic selections to filter modifiers to advance layer effects (no, not the lame layer effects filter, manual layer effects), proper channel use is key.
I'd suggest you pick up a copy of "Photoshop for Dummies"... I'm pretty sure they cover the basics of using alpha channels. Once you learn the basics, the rest of the pieces fall into place.
