Description This step by step and carefully explained tutorial covers basic eye/face coloring, detailed hair and fur, etc. (mostly basics on how to do realistic drawings)

! PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A TUTORIAL ON HOW TO DRAW THE HUMAN ANATOMY OR REALISTIC FORMS, but instead is a tutorial for how to cg or color realistically.

Since many people keep asking me if this works on photoshop versions such as 7.0, CS, CS2 or CS3, the answer is yes. If this works in ps elements then it should obviously work on higher versions.

Wow! I see my tutorial being linked on all kinds of sites other than da. Thanks guys for the over 5,000 favs and over 100,000 views

Tools: Wacom Graphire 2 4x5 tablet, photoshop elements 3.0.

----

If you do decide to use this tutorial for any of your drawings, crediting is highly appreciated. Also please do link me to it so that I can see! Have fun and enjoy.

finished piece for the hair part is here: [link]

One quick question though, did you use a pen tablet or was this done by mouse?

Wow this tutorial is awesome, tyvm.
I am very new to using a tablet, and all my drawings just look very cartoony.
But since your sketch at the top of the tutorial looks so fine,
could i ask you what brush settings you use?
and what size canvass?
