I feel like this tutorial was a bit lacking. For the most part it works, but you assume the reader knows GIMP like the back of their hand. I don't really understand the point of a tutorial that glosses over elements of itself. If I knew how to do everything why would I consult your guide? You don't explain certain elements enough, like the part about adding the rivets. I could not make that part work for the life of me. How do you get GIMP to add circles ? All it did for me was add an outline. I had to hand draw the circles.

I guess all I need is practice, but I can only give this guide a B in terms of helpfulness and clarity.
