Thank you.
Depends on what I'm painting.
But recently I use 2500x3000px.

At that time I think I used 2.6. There was no 2.8 version then.

I have that version. But i can't find a brush like it at all.

Because you have to install GPS.
See the links in my comment. The new version of GPS is 2.0.

Software isn't important.
But you do need similar brushes, to follow this tutorial.

Well, I haven't wrote tutorial for whole body. Cause I would have to include anatomy and everything else, much more work than I wanted to do at the time I made this tutorial.

Thanks. I would really like to see if this tutorial helps, that's the only reason I asked people to post links to their lion practices. I hope it doesn't sound like a must post links.

Is gimp safe to dowload? and does it have similar tools to photoshop?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Safe, of course it is. It doesn't come up with any adware, spyware or virus. It's open source which means anyone can see code with which is written and it's free.
Is it in general Gimp better than Photoshop? No. But I think some things are done better in Gimp. And underestimating Gimp is huge mistake. Look at David Revoy's gallery: [link]
Yes, it has some tools similar to photoshop but it's not the same.
Sorry if I overload you with info.

no not too much info at all! Thank you very much! I am getting a tablet soon and was looking at photoshop but is is just too expensive so I will dowload gimp instead. Thank you again.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No problem. Nothing cost trying out free things. When you get a tablet check out MyPaint . It's also open source, free and save to download.
If you have problems starting with Gimp check out tutorials on GIMPER.NET , gimpusers and GimpTalk and also there are various Gimp groups here on 
If you wanna do digital painting with Gimp then GPS or Gimp Painter plugins are great help.
Sorry again for information overload.

No info over load, thank you very much i will be sure to check them out! I dowloaded GIMP yesterday and have had no problems with it so Thank you very much!

Do you have installed Gimp Paint Studio?

wow excellent tutorial! my main problem is how to represent mat leather-like materials. suede and patent shiny surfaces are easy with MyPaint brushes (guess with Gimp too), and I actually found brushes someone made for gimp for leather and fur, but they are extremely big so you don't see the effect on smaller surfaces (like my shoes

Thanks.
I think you are doing fine with mat leather-like materials. I haven't tried paining leather yet, so I don't think I can give you useful tips, but practicing painting textures from a photo can be very helpful. You can modify those brushes you found or made similar but smaller ones.

yeah, making a new brush isn't a bad idea at all! thanks for the tip!
