MrDietrr August 20, 2010 at 11:09 am: Hi there, I rly love your vid. I’m a HUGE noob to PS and this vid learned me a LOT! I would like to see more vids of you in the future. But is it possible to talk a bit slower when you say things like Ctrl+D or something cause i rly can’t figgure them out, I’m already stuck at 01.30 when you say how to fill the circle with blue.

BUT . . . AWESOME VID !! ^^

itslipfac August 20, 2010 at 12:36 pm: nice effect. but I guess in the first part it would’ve been easier to use a soft big brush to create those colors instead of using the elliptical marquee tool.
