Description
Skin is fascinating, this is not a skin tones tutorial but more of a skin optics kinda thing. Btw I never went to art school or whatever, so erm, this is not the absolute word on the topic, just a collection of thoughts.For info about what brushes I use check out the Blending Tutorial:[link]
I'm using Photoshop CS2 and Wacom Intuos 2 for this.
Edit: apologies to those of you who are freaked out by the little skin balls, hahahahaha, sorry really

If you open up the brushes dialogue box, there should be an option on it somewhere to "Make a new brush," which you can edit at any time however you want. I usually just make one new brush and change it as I need to do so~ If you still can't find it you can note me and I'll put up a screenshot of what I mean. ^^

This is very helpful and well-thought out! I like the part on SSS. Something that I've never really thought about before and yet I LOVE drawing backlit pictures.

The skill and realism are astounding. I am definately going to use this-thanks for making it!
But I have one question, that I can't ever get answered: What brush do you use? I can never get that "painted" appearance like you have in this tutorial using Photoshop. Its always the circles in the low flow, which it probably a reason my skin always looks so wierd =\
