well i started on the background first by making new brushes on photoshop, i got a few that looked like splashes of blood and others. then i moved on to the main picture of Ichigo, i darkedit to fit the environment he is in. then i added some splashes of blood ontop of the rest of the detail . in all i think it took me from 45 min to an hr taking it at an easy pace. rnrn~Sosa~
