    I've uploaded a good selection of RAW files for fellow retouchers to work on to Mega (130+ individual folders - 1000+ RAW photos) They're all in folders with the photographers names so make sure you credit them if you use them in your portfolios!

    I'll continue adding more and more folders to the database - my internet is being stupidly slow at the moment which is annoying! so keep checking the link :)

    EDITED TO ADD :: These are all unedited beauty / fashion RAWs of models for retouching practise

    EDIT - Mega deleted everything a few months ago :( so I've reupdated the link and have started posting some new RAW files below

    Hidden Content:
    **Hidden Content: You must click 'Like' before you can see the hidden data contained here.**
    I just uploaded another batch of 15 new folders of beauty and fashion images with a new link because they're uploaded in a different location -

    guys, like the admin says by @vrdude kindly indicate the .jpeg of the RAW File. So there's a numbers to choose from what they will retouch or edit from the choice. Good luck @claracake1 & @Mystic Wolf both you too.

    These are all images that have been shared over the years from the photographers listed in the folders for retouchers to use in their portfolios with credit :) just make sure you list the photographers mentioned if you post your edited versions!

    Speaking of RAW files, inquiring any clear news about why did the wesaturate.com just shutdown? Thanks.

    Pretty sure they changed focus to do something else... unless I'm thinking of some other website!

    It's like a little bit rude, without any notification or wheareabout. Just a simple saying, 'where shutting down' will be a quitkill for all, and no questions ask.

    I never really found it particularly helpful anyway to be honest - I suppose other retouchers who edited product shots or landscapes, etc might of found some gems in there but I've always been more of a beauty / fashion retoucher and there wasn't really that much choice in regards to those genres.

    Hi! It's nice to know to hear it from you, that you're a beauty & fashion retoucher. Sorry, I can't help it. I'm always attracted by the beauty of nature. ;)
