Thanks :) I'm not quite happy with it yet. But I think its getting there. I have enjoyed doing it so far. I've done a couple of others and if it gets to the point where I'm not having fun with it anymore I stop.
With the hints and tips I've gathered I should be able to finish it off nicely. I'll try the blending too :)

I had absolutely no idea how to use photoshop 2 years ago. Never understood layers one bit. If you look at my profile stuff I've at least figured a few things out now. I still make a point of doing at least one internet or DVD tutorial a day.

Quite like the Noby Nobody, I'm a sucker for anything that's been coloured well.
Tis the GIMP for me. I'm guessing a lot of photoshop tutorials can be carried over to it though?

of the principles are the same. I only ever tried the gimp once, found it way too clunky, but then I found everything clunky at that time.
There are a few options though

I think I'll be trying that. Thankies.
I don't mind GIMP so far. My only gripe is that is a bit of a bugger to customize, effects and plug in wise. Ooo, and the fact it mangles almost every texture I tried to add.
That aside it does seem to link up rather well with my tablet.
