'sup guys? I'm a little new to this stuff, so bear with me. I'm working on a current project (located at http://www.chariot32.com/images/hero.jpg ) I know it's the best thing in the world, but I need some suggestions as to how to make it look more realistic and A LOT more detailed. Kind of need tips as to how to add scratches, dents, scuff marks, etc. without making the picture look like a bunch of pixeled lines.


(I currently have the layers saved on PSP....but I can always change to PS if I can get a heads up as to what I need to do to make this picture look a lot better.)

i've found the only way to *eliminate* the pixelation is to incress the number of total pixels.
Basicly you need to work with huge canvases 2000x2000 pixels or so (number may vary) the problem then becomes the ram. play around with the sizes till you get a size that will allow you to do details, but will not lag on your machine.
