  1. fantastic tutorial. I just have one problem though, I have an older version of photoshop and I don't have the watercolour brush texture that you mention. Will any other kind of brush give me the same kind of effect?

  2. one of the best tutorials i've seen on creating htis effect- Nicely done- this could even serve as a base/under painting for different techniques as well such as turning into a chalk drawing, or oil painting- allowing hte 'texture' of base layer to show through top 'oil layer'
