Step 5.
This is the 2nd part of this Photoshop tutorial. Next we're going to create an arm, so zoom back into 200% and create a path layer. Choose the pen tool and make the 1st point of the path (image a). Create the 2nd point further down and to the left, dragging the mouse down and right to create a curve (image a). Make a new layer, choose dark green (4C6F42) for the foreground, and set the brush size to 10. Right click on the path, from the path panel, and choose stroke path. Make a selection of the 10 pixel wide curve that will have been created from "stroke path".

Step 6.
Feather (select > feather) and contract the selection by 3 and then fill it with a lighter green (4AB157). Next, using the same light green fore the foreground and the dark green (2B5D26) for the background, create a radial gradient in an elliptical selection (image b).
