Description
Hey there, everybody!Here is my first attempt at a tutorial for DA. Hooray!
I just wanted to make a generally straight forward tutorial. I don't get into too many details but it shows a high level view of my process. Hopefully it won't be too offensive, hehe.
This is all correct information when using Photoshop 7-CS4 Extended. I work on an Intuous 3.
Let me know what you think and I'll do my best to provide updates and answers.
Only one amendment: I forgot to explain that my method of keeping things separate and organized helps you remain flexible when you want to change things quickly.
That's all.
Thanks everyone!
M!

Nice, thanks.
How did you get the nice pretty background texture, I assume the texture is in one folder, and the design on it is in another. In any case, I really like the background.
Perhaps another tutorial to show us how you did it?

Yeah, all my work is very separated, layer-wise. The background is actually comprised of another 10 layers or so. Gradients, textures, desaturation layers... lots of little things to balance it just how I wanted it.
I'll do a background tutorial somewhere down the line for sure.

Thank you! As I said to someone else... we should be helping each other to be better. An artist who tries to keep all of their techniques secret, relies too heavily on them.

ah always great if skilled artists share their methods and dont just think of earning money.

Artists who are tight-lipped about their techniques rely solely on their techniques. We should all help each other to be better. It's practice and determination that decides who is really great.
Glad you dig the tutorial!

Awesome. That was the part I was most concerned about. As you are typing it up you think to yourself, "OH... and that... and I mention that... Oh shit.. that too... This makes no sense..." .
You have put my fears to rest. Thank you!
