And then textures, and layers and layers. Some of the trick is to apply the texture to the piece, make a copy, and then put the COPY on a layer over the piece without the texture, and fade the textured one out, so that you get the texture but it doesn't much up your colors as much. That tutorial is a goldmine, though. This has some good links too: [link]
I've been on a vintage kick lately! Instead of the green and cyan tones it says to add in that tutorial, I added some red and yellow tones to this one, too, to keep it summery, so that's part of the trick. Gotta play with what the tutorial says.

Thanks! I will def check all of that out. You are kind of like the queen of using textures I've noticed. That's not something I've gotten very good at yet.
Don't get discouraged, though. I only started using textures this year (literally, January), so it's a pretty quick thing to pick up if you use it enough. There's some really good tutorials here for textures, and... there's no real skill involved. Just... cycling through the different layer styles until you find the one that works (or doesn't, and you switch to a different texture or modify where the texture affects by erasing).

The guitar is a musical instrument with ancient roots that is used in a wide variety of musical styles. It typically has six strings, but four, seven, eight, ten, and twelve string guitars also exist.
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More
