IT'S FINALY HERE!!!!
so many people have asked me to do a tutorial so here it is.
i hope it's not to confusing.
this tutorial is NOT for beginners. you have to at least have a little knowledge on photoshop because it would take too long for me to explain what the tools are and how to use them.
the tutorial is focused mostly on the face, i didn't talk about the cloth at all.
if you have anymore questions that's not n00bish, then please ask me ^^
excuse my hand writing.
so enjoy ^^
(i hope i put this in the right catagory.)

Okay, so I have a question that I hope isn't TOO n00bish.
For the highlights, what tool did you use? Are you still using the paintbrush tool, or did you switch to dodge? It looks kind of like dodging, but looking at your layers palette, it appears you're working on a new layer...
Or is a really magical tool that I've never seen before that's specific to PS7?

it's the dodge tool ^^
i had it on a different layer for some mysterous reason that i don't even know about XP maby i accidentaly switched to another layer without knowing.

do you group your layers?
because grouping is much more organized than
locking or using the polylasso tool or something.
and no, i am not talking about sets.
anyways goody tut.
better than mines. D: mine are bad.

i don't group the layers becasue i like to go back and changed the picture after the while, can't do that if i merged the layers >.<
thanks ^^

i switch layers when i want to use the dodge/burn tool, it's more work but the results are the same.

Ahh I'm so glad you made this ^^, I just have a few questions I hope they dont sound to stupid, 1. how come you color the background? and 2. Do you erase the color that goes out of the lines before you finish the picture (like for example in the 3rd picture on the tuturial the skin color was out of the lines) Thanks again for this wonderful tuturial

Q: how come i colored the background?
A: because the skin tone was too close to the orignal background, which is white, and it would be hard to tell if i colored outside the lines.
Q: do i erase the color that goes out of the lines before i finish the picture?
A: i don't erase the skin outside the lines because the hair, cloth etc. will cover up the skin since the skin in on the bottom most layer, which means everything on top of the skin layer will cover it up (so there's no point in erasing it ^^)
your welcome ^^
