WOW, youve got way potential if that's your first ps. The next step for you would be light management across the colored sockets. It would add a depth in realism for the anime. Gradients work wonders for this with a little practice. Then you could follow up with some brush makage. Making your own brushes is way easy with a camera. You could make one from just about anything. Then I would go with using some of your already made ps and try to merge and edit them together to make fluent and corrolating art. Practice is everything. Try to press every button in ps atleast once to see what it does. Eventually you just remeber the effects and certain tricks that do neat little somethings. Look at other ps pix helps too, your able to see exactly what they did to the picture to get it to what it looks like,
