‘Tom Cruise Clinging’ Is The Photoshop Gift That Keeps On Giving

If you’ve been wondering why I haven’t been posting as much these past two days, it’s because I’ve been side tracked. I saw this shot from Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation and I went down a rabbit hole that I dug myself. This plane stunt seems to be the centerpiece of all the marketing – main shot on the poster, the climax of the trailer, etc. Not to brag, gang, but I know Photoshop gold when I see it. Or at least, gold to me. It’s quite possible no one else is as entertained by this as me. But I regret nothing. Wait, no. I meant to say everything. I regret everything.

Feel free to make your own. I can’t upload .psd files, but this should work.

Okay, so I may have used this one before. Doesn't mean I'm not going to use it again.

Thanks to Lee Roy Myers for the idea.
