Like most artists I have a really horrible scanner, and that's where it comes in handy to know how to edit in Photoshop. My scanner does especially bad with light greens (which become yellow) and blues (which become too saturated) so this painting was especially not good for it. It's sped up, but it took all of 18 minutes so there's a lot of meat on the bone! Scans usually need only 5 minutes of editing...

Awesome tutorial, thanks for sharing! :D
I'll definitely keep this in mind whenever I scan any art.
