Thanks guys with all the links and stuff. I am going to try out his tutorial later. I'm hoping this is the start to make me a better artist because my pictures on photoshop are usually badly cut and paste jobs.

Well I tried out this tutorial as I'm sitting in school bored out of my mind and I have to say I really like the outcome, definatly for being able to do it in Elements (the only photoshop this horrible computer has) I messed with the tutorial a bit, did it twice colorizing them red and blue then doing one with a plaster effect and mirroring it, well this is what it came out to
