This is not an exhaustive list and I'd love to hear what the community would like to learn about - or even what I could expand upon in this video!

It looks really pretty. In the first video, can you show how it's implemented into MV? Also I would be cool to see how it looks with characters walking on the map. I'm trying to learn as much as I can about parallax mapping.

Updated the post with a new tutorial that shows how I draw shadows/lighting and use color dodging to make it pop!

@Papillon Effect I made your tutorial tonight - it's scheduled to go live on Friday morning.

These are great little tutorials. I don't use Photoshop, but most of these tips and tricks can be easily carried over into GIMP - just requires some tinkering. I've really enjoyed watching both yours and Fallen Lorelei's parallaxing videos.
