Yeah I played around quite a bit with different brushes and jitter.
But I wouldn't have experimented with it at all if it hadn't been for this tut, so thanks again ^^

They are amazing. I love how you use a different kind of brush for the snow, it brings out a really distinctive feel.

That's really nice. Try to avoid "coincidences" though, like having his hair flowing right behind his mouth....I almost thought it was a tongue XD

I just got Photoshop Elements, this should help a ton! Thanks! Now I'll look at your other tutorials! By the way, the effects you put look awesome. Like the text boxes, and the snow backround.

SeaSpryte [2011-10-31 06:08:20 +0000 UTC]

Loved this! And the tutorial itself looks really, really nice.

Might I suggest another tutorial? How about making one to show how you made this tutorial? How to post the pictures, how to post the screen shot next to it, and how to get the killer text boxes that look like keys in the tutorial, and the matching background. What size to save it as... yada yada...
I've never found one to do that and, I know I've said this before, but...

yours just looks brilliant and really professional.

It's one of the loveliest ones I've ever seen. I keep going back to look at it. *sigh*

RadenWA In reply to SeaSpryte [2011-11-01 08:31:26 +0000 UTC]

Oh gosh, it's rare that someone appreciates my tutorial for what it visibly is! Thanks for that! XD

But about a tutorial on making a tutorial, I don't think it's necessary because it's all just so basic It all just goes down to the basics of Photoshop and principles of design.

Just look up how to take screenshots, crop the images, paste it on your tutorial, add background, add texts, and the textboxes are basically just a box with random texture and bevel/emboss applied.

the size is totally optional but a vertical-aligned tutorial like this is preferred because it's easier for the eye to just scroll down through it.

It's really basic and I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out yourself. But if you got any particular questions just ask.
