This is the step-by-step walkthrough on how I did my piece Eel Mermaid, found here: [link]
I tried to explain how I did things and why I did them the way I did. I might do a separate tutorial later on what kinds of brushes I use.
If this is helpful to you in any way, please let me know!
If you have questions or would like clarification on anything, also do not be afraid to ask. I realize that this walkthrough/tutorial assumes relatively proficient use of Photoshop.
This is fantastic. the detail is great , and the final peice is really great. haha my art, if it can be called that i do not think has ever gone past stage 2 .
