It's been a while...

...since i used photoshop

but as soon as i came across an old picture of my attempt to trace, i said, "i think i could do that much better!" and i went off into photoshop again.
you know, i surprised myself! it's not super quality, because i just used solid colors and then the dodge and burn tools. it's a simple technique but i really really liked how it turned out!! Much softer and i changed the colors. It's "traced" (because i took some liberties of fixing a few things ;D) from a picture I took at Six Flags in that "old-styled" photo shoot store.
