"ANGELA FRACASSO: I'm Angela at ExpertVillage.com. And I'm just kind of filling in a little bit of the foreground details, just making the dirt look like it--giving it some bumps and hills a little bit and just putting in some other details to make it look more like it's actually a construction site, and we're doing dirt. And just make sure that when you're--as you pat this on that you keep your light source the same. You need to make sure you keep even with the dirt piles that you keep your lighter side of the dirt on this side as the light is hitting it from this side and then you're using your shadows over on this side. And sometimes, that works best just kinda layering it on and then you get it little by little. You're just kinda getting it little by little and then it starts to turn into something. Sometimes it takes a little while and sometimes you've gotta work longer at it until you get it right, until you feel like it looks right to you. Of course, I'm going to go in with a smaller brush and start putting a little bit more detail on this."
