This is an incredibly long, detailed and helpful tutorial. I can only imagine how long it took you to put it together especially after the computer mishaps and whatnot, but I'm glad you stuck with it because I'm sure it's a valued resource to many. I faved only the first part so it can be found from the beginning and am commenting on the last part to asure you I have read and appreciated the whole thing. (Even the extra bits on frost and stone.) I tend to be more of a painter than a manipper but still there are many tips, and useful information here that can be applied to both genras. Thanks for taking the time and patience to give back to the community!

I faved all the tutorial parts up to this point, but I'm only commenting on the last one because I don't want to spam you too much
For someone who's just starting out [me], this is the most helpful tutorial in existence. I honestly appreciate the amount of time that you put in to this - if my computer crashed during a tutorial, I would probably give up immediately. Therefor, I applaud you and your amazingness:

Wonderful tutorial. Somethings I already knew, some only knew but never used and other just discovered thanks to your explanations.
Thank you for taking the time to make this one and sharing!

Again thankyou

This is by far one of the most useful tutorials I've seen, it was very helpful, and explained so well. And some of your ideas were really smart, like getting interviews, it's cool to see what other people think and how they work. Keep up the great work!

Wow. This is among one of the best guides I have ever seen. I'm just starting to get back into manips for the first time in a while, and I have to say, I learned a lot. Can't wait to try out some new stuff!
I also admire the patience, and perseverance put into this entire thing. You did a fabulous job.

Practice makes perfect, they say - so the more manipping you do, the better you'll get

Wow. This is amazing. I don't have Paintshop, just free program I downloaded off-line, but just looking at all the things you've done with it wants me to put it on my Christmas list. This tutorial is fantastic and I think I'm going to try my hand at manipulations now, thanks to you. You're an inspiration. Kudos to you and thanks!
