1)[NEW][HOT]What's usually the last things you do to finish your tag?
Generally I just see how what it looks like before I decide on what I do. But after all effects are added I always have to add my filters and other tools; sharpen the focal lightly, blur the background, do a light high pass, use lighting effects, burn and dodge.
Than I do my adjustments layers; Gradient maps, curves, brightness/contrast and the occasional photo filter or two.
Kinda my end of tag rituals

Freestyle- I don't really like to be constricted in what I do, I prefer to be able to do what ever I like.
or...
B/W- This involves a bit more thought than freestyle. Because in B/W you really have to work on the brightness and contrast side of things a bit more to make it look good. Good lighting is also pretty much vital and that doesn't mean a random white soft brush added.
