This is really cool. I never managed to figure out how to do color fur well until now.

Nice tutorial, quick question though, is there any particular reason as to why you're using an angled flat brush instead of a round one?

sandara In reply to ZeCake [2008-05-23 03:11:39 +0000 UTC]

i use the angled brush for a harder, sketchier feel... i do use a round brush for softer stuff, like skin, eyes, etc

I've wanted to try digital painting for a while..need to save up to get a tablet first though heeh. Anyway..the tutorial doesn't completely make sense to a noob like me, but I was still able to glean some useful tricks from it. Mainly, I don't really understand how to choose the brushes, but that's probably minor. Showing how to layer shadow and light is something probably any artist can understand, and I found it very helpful. Thanks!!

Ahh, so you paint on top of your sketches/lineart? Neat, I wasn't exactly sure how you did things, but it looks pretty simple.

i find that pressing Z to switch to the magnification tool is more convenient than pressing ctrl alt +

Thanks for the tips though. A lot of people can benefit from this, I'm sure.
