I know how to unlock the original bkgd layer: you just double-click the layer!

Not on my version. Mine is much older.

Oh....

Y'know, I have PS7! And the airbrush tool part where you use a soft brush is not on mine!

[karnella]

all you have to do is change the density of the brush. If you can find a way to do that all is well. You know how on the picture of the brush sizes theres ones that are compleatly fuzzy and ones that are just smooth all around... pick the smooth ones.

quite sloppy !!

I'm sorry. I've never done a tutorial before.

Hey. You Video is great. The way you do the line work is interesting. would never have used the Marquee tool. The water colour shading is excellent and really defines the piece and make the character look three dimentional.

Thank you so very, very much for posting this tutorial! I've been going out of my mind trying to learn how to do this! I could hug you!!

Thanks for the tutorial. I hadn't thought of using the lasso tool and that's helped me a lot. ^^

This was interesting! Tell me again how you got that watercolor effect though. I didn't really get that part.
