i understood nearly nothing,but i played a lil bit with photoshop,result:

Hard to understand, cause you use different words which make it confusing. You're not that specific in describing your tutorial, but I give you credit for making one, and at least some people understand it .

For example,



Which layer am I applying this to? My render? Brush layers???? I've never heard of "value" or "k�t" before on photoshop

I got stuck at: Step 5 "Smudge bar"

I dont understand how you get: http://img307.imageshack.us/img307/9042/bar9ak.jpg (Yeah, I have the brushes and I know how to use em but it looks like crap when I try what Radi300 did.
