Description
I've received a couple of notes telling me my link to the Tsunade tutorial wasn't working.Anyhow, here it is. I'm taking it down in a couple of days so feel free to download it for your own reference, not for you to post elsewhere while it's here.

Let me just say this:
• This isn't a photomanipulation, even if some like to think that it is. I just started off with a picture as my guide. Eventually (after painfully painting on the lips), I deleted the picture layer to make sure it's 100% painted. So, I'd like to see it as using the picture as sort of like my line art because I didn't EDIT it, I painted over it thouroughly.
• You'll find a lot of typos but I am too lazy to edit it so don't mind them.
• I forgot to mention that I also used textured brushes from *EraserX in her eyes, lips and parts of the face to make it look less flat. I used *EraserX 's brush too for the hair.
• Note that this technique wasn't used for the Sooshee and Taho artworks. But it was used in the Lorelei artwork, which you'll see in my gallery.

A ref indeed, I remember before, that if you want to get accurate reference of a person is to look infront of a mirror or if you are having trouble drawing a hand, just look at your own hand. Nice work by the way^_^

you mean what brush? I use a hard brush that works well with pen pressure.
if you mean color, I use a yellowish tone because it looks more natural than flesh tones.

well no.
but she doesn't want me playing any horror stuff.
There was this one time, when we were shopping at Best Buy at Florida, I saw this Resident Evil PS2 DVD. I got it off the shelf and proceeded to check-out. Then to my absolute horror, she declairs: "Put that back! Can't you see? It says EVIL! That can't be good for you!" then I said (while the cashier people were watching us in complete astonishment while obviously trying hard not to laugh): "no, ma, they're just zombies!"
Then she says (and this time I hear the girls at the counter giggling): "Ayoko ng zombie-zombie!"
o my gawrsh I thought I was going to die of shame!!!
