Re: Photoshop CS3
[ QUOTE ] Working with instances layers or editing more than one layer at the same time would be a great improvement for game artists.

Re: Getting better at male character
That sucks about the card, as far as the texture work is going it's looking good. I agree with ysalex that you could do with more contrast in general on the clothing, fine contrast through noise layers or adjustment layers really help sell clothing.

Re: how do you grade game art?
And in a production environment, asset friendliness is another factor. i.e. could someone else pick up the model file and your textures and be able to easily edit them?

Re: How do u use this script in Photoshop?
@Eric Chadwick Thanks. Tried it. It works. But it works only for red colored layers. How do I specify another layer's colour? EDIT: Found this: https://gist.github.com/eppz/50847c5c058f2f2a0089a5b8435f5025 It toggles layer by name. All u need to do is change the name in the script and it would select or disable the layers… -
