What you'll be creating
Submarine; this artwork means a lot to me. Inspired by the emotional feeling of someone who always keeps their memories and disguises their stories into a mystery. The 'fish' submarine represents the deep memories and the fisherman represents someone who always keeps it.Tutorial Resources

Bloody hell! Awesome work man!
step 33: where to brush and where to place the texture?
I'm really sorry, maybe there's an error when they upload it. I already sent an email to the admin, I hope they can fix it asap. I give the JPEG file for the complete step 33, you can download it here https://www.dropbox.com/s/u33iqxc9stbvvzb/step33.jpg?dl=0
Thank you
in step 27 I get these oversaturated pixels. Is there another way to get rid of them without using clone stamp? https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=95141D5708B162B1!221924&authkey=!AIcVgO6H6-DH6rA&v=3&ithint=photo%2cpng
In step 27, I'm using brush. It's okay if you use the stamp tool, the result is totally same. I already remind a note in this step about making silhouette with the levels adjustment effect is not always make the image change into totally black, it depends with the quality of the image. Thank you.
Thanks good
