Tips
1. Editing on different layers makes it easier and looks better.(Ex. a skin layer, top layer, jacket layer, ect...)
2. Drawing a collar bone makes it look more real.
3. Using the line tool for the hair is easier then the curver tool, it gives the ends a better point.
4. When coloring lashes, they should ether be black or the hair color. It makes not sense to be the color of the eyes.
5. Making a base color layer and then a shadow layer later makes sure there isn't any uncolored spots.
6. When using a screenshot, if you are using the same background, it it best to follow the shadows lines given.
7. To make your RPC look like it's in a darker, or different colored, area; make a copy of your edite and color it the propler color. Then ujust the mode and opacity.
8. When saving, it is best to save it twice, as a BMP/PNG and a JPEG.(The JPEG makes it look more like a screenshot and the BMP/PNG is incase something needs to be fixed or for correct color reference.)
9. When saving as a JPEG the best settings are: Compressed and Quality- 71.

7:38 -To make it look more like a sceenshot I make a copy of my edit and blur the outside of it and put it under the the original edit. Then I turn down the opacity to make it bearly noticble.
7:52 - I erased some of the shadow to make it look like the sun was peaking though the leaves.
