Description
People have been asking me for a long time how I shade ing Photoshop. Now, that's a very broad range to cover, but this should help give you some idea.WARNING:
Shading this way requires my custom brush. The settings for this brush are:
OPACITY:65%
FLOW:65%
(under BRUSH TIP SHAPE)
HARDNESS:91
SPACING18
(under OTHER DYNAMICS)
OPACITY JITTER 0%
CONTROL FADE: 50
FLOW JITTER 0%
CONTROL FADE: 25

I still have a lot things to ask. Could you teach how to soften the shading a bit? Or doing it with the colors?

Those are all for PS 7 and up, but I can give you some 5.5 setting too which I often use:
Under Paint Brush options:
Opacity 55%
Fade 25
Under Brush Size:
Hardness 70
Spacing 18
and make sure you're using the AIRBRUSH tool when doing this in 5.5 instead of the paintbrush. In 7, airbrush and paintbrush are all one thing.
