Made this because I feel it's one of the biggest steps that a lot of artists seem to miss. Hopefully it's of use to someone!

Obviously if you have other questions that aren't answered in this tutorial, just let me know :)

Edit:
D'oh, thanks for the DD guys :D

Gradient Tutorial by *nanya -- Suggester's words: I can make gradients on a blank slate in Photoshop Elements, but making gradients on a subject has been another matter completely. This explains how to do so in minute detail. Excellent information that can be used even by beginners starting to explore the intricacies of digital art. ( Suggested by `WDWParksGal and Featured by `FantasyStock )

Fantastic! I'm constantly wondering how to make this sort of "work." Then I always end up reverting back to flat shading. Thank you for this. :)
