Artist's Comments

This is my First Tutorial, I hope that it is clear in its instructions. LOL.

I have learnt a lot thought the tutorials available on deviant and wanted to be able to return the Favour and encourage others to try new techniques. I use Photoshop CS3, but this tutorial can be used in older or recent versions of the program.

I created this tutorial because I have realised the importance of adding detail to an artwork or deviation to be able to give it a greater depth or realistic feel. This is a tutorial showing you how to create a shadow for a person or an object, so that they all blend and tie together with your backgrounds.


If you have any questions, or found this tutorial helpful, please send me a note, i will endevor to reply to all! Best of luck and I wish you all the best!!

P.S. Please excuse the spelling mistakes. LOL. It was late at night when I had the urge to create this.
