Great tutorial. Your style is very intriguing and I hope to pick up some tips from you. Going through endless tutorials is the only way to go if you ask me. One can pick up a small tip from each one. It gets to the point where you begin to think about images you've created and what effects and techniques you can utilize to make them better. I do this all the time when I'm getting ready to sleep.

Most good artists are real stingy about disclosing their secrets

Props.
