When you create a dither it's pretty forgiving even if you have a somewhat lossy image to start with but that said the better the detail the better the final product. Normally however I tend to build at 100% so it makes the whole process easier. And if I really want to make sure I get what I need I usually go to the library and source out a photo that I can then scan in myself.

The tutorials are nicely done and informative. One question I had on this particular tutorial was did you 'size up' any of the original images that you used (like the guns you grabbed from an ebay auction) and if so, did you just use the standard Photoshop Bicubic or something else? Initially I thought you might have sized up after converting to the dithered tiffs but realized you most likely would not have had the level of detail that you ended up with. Just wondering because sometimes hi-res photos are hard to come up with for projects like these! I would like to offer a heart-felt thanks for sharing your knowledge with this website.
