I usually just search deviantART by subject until I find a stock image I need. Then I get the artist's permission and use it.

I am so glad to hear that! You are very welcome. Photoshop is a great tool for creating things. Like any other medium -- it just takes practice.

Wow. Your detailed-ness leaves me awed. How did you gain the motivation to do all this?!
I would've stopped halfway through the *head* part.
I commend you.

I admit I got pretty sick of it by the end. But I only have one left to do now, so I think I'll make it.
