16/9/13 - photoshop lesson

I've drawn an object from my "container of curiosities" using photoshop. I found it rather easy, and the style of it suited the object.
To create the image, i have used various tools and brushes - rubber, brush, layers.
To add shading/light to the object, i have used soft pencils with lowered opacity and to create spikes and edges i have used harder brushes with the opacity set to 100%.
The layers have been used to organise my image - to put the leaf behind the conquer and to add more volume to the spikes and therefore make the image look more 3D.
