There's Magic in Imagination

Description

This started as a tracing of a drawing of my hand drawing some swirls, and ended in me trying some new Photoshop techniques. Tah-dah!
So it started as a bored drawing, and I modeled my hand to draw my hand drawing (Don't worry, Bic, you can send me a royalties check, later.) I took it home and scanned it, and began tracing it and adding color.
Anyways, I figured it looked kinda boring with just some black swirls, so I added some color and make them glowy. Everything rolled downhill from there.
I like how it turned out, though. It's a nice experience to try some new stuff, but it's even better when you make them look cool. I got to use some new brushes, try out coloring with gradients, and I even tried air brushing! Yay for not sucking! :D
Needless to say, my pencil is not emitting a hallucinogenic gas that makes you think you are in a neon green acid trip. Rather, it's the concept of imagination, and what you try thinking of when you draw.
...Man, I get way too deep in my explanation for my art. Maybe I should make it simple and leave the explaining to your imagination. Although, it might lead to the assumption that I have pencils that really DO emit hallucinogenic gases*. Don't think that!

And before anyone asks, yeah, that's a ring on my finger, and it's my favorite-ist ring ever. It's a ruby! <3

...OKAY MATERIAL SOURCING TIME!

EDIT: Fixed up the index finger. Now it looks a little more... Normal.

EDIT 2: I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. D':
It was fine and I went to re-upload it, and now most of the picture is messed up!

EDIT 3: I fixed it, I guess. It looked better before, but it's okay now.
