It should be somewhere at the top of the basic set list that every photoshop has. It's right after the hard and soft ones. To make it work prooperly you have to use tablet.

finally got my tablet pen sensitivity working  
you don't know how much I appreciate your tutorials given I don't have any background in arts. You're technically my mentor right now 
Here's my first work

I like the colors in the picture and the strong contrast you made, it gives picture some mysterious mood. You blended colors really good as well. The only thing that is missing are shadows on the ground. If light comes from behind the creature then you should make some long shadows on the ground coming from the creature and the trees in the background as well. The picture will be completed then and it will add some more dynamics
Keep it up!

Bardzo mnie zawsze inspirują prace, w których są takie kontrastujące kolory, ale jakoś nie mogę się przekonać do tego by w ten sposób rysować.
Ale teraz planuję rysować więcej, więc spróbuję i tego; na  pewno ten tutorial mi w tym pomoże!

Samo zestawienie kolorów czasami bardziej działa, niż to co jest przedstawione w pracy. Też mi trochę zajęło, zanim odważyłam się na taką paletę.
