Description Edit: Update, there was just some things really bugging me that I needed to fix :3

Interpret how you will

Something quite different from me. More or less practice for me, and trying out new things. I'm steadily trying to teach myself proper fur direction, and trying to find a way I like to do it

Most welcome.. Damn, that's a good secret! In all seriousness, the detail is amazing. Do you draw each strand of fur on its own? Ives.ways wanted to.ern, but haven't quite sussed it out.

WildDragonfly In reply to smudge-92 [2013-02-22 07:06:18 +0000 UTC]

LOL ikr? Yes indeedy This is basically my first attempt at decent looking fur. But for this fella, I blocked in his orange coat in a darker orange than what I wanted as the end result, as well as his white fur which was kind of light/dirty grey. When it came to painting the fur, I stuck another layer over top set on Overlay and used the colour white to paint. I don't know how well this'll work on different colour tones, haven't tried yet >.< But I guess one can always play around with colour choice and layer style I'm much, much to lazy to hand pick colours and do it that way... at least for now lol.

The hair on the face is rather time consuming since you can't really get away with making them giant clumps Once you get into it though, and see it kind of "working" it gets rather relaxing xD
You can see I kind of didn't give the top of the snout any love /lazyfail.
Hehe, me too!! It's taking me forever to get the gist of this darn fur >.< Next time, I need to try to make is softer/smoother

Oh my lord! Just re read over my last reply.. I'm sorry for all that random blabber. iPads clearly don't like me. Though, the good thing about these is you can zoom in and see the fine detail. I'm definitely going to give this a try.. I'mma steal your style.

You might need to give it another go if I give you a commission or two.

Lol, I love having 10 thousand convos with the same person xD Only on the web lmao!!!

Haha xD Nothing wrong with this so called "random blabber" Do you like the I-pad? I've considered getting one of them tablet thingy majigs, I just don't know if I'd have any use for it

Awesome <3 Haha xD Go for it. I imagine it'll change eventually Been trying some different things.

So do I. I have these convos quite a lot among my net friends.

I prefer laptops. I only use this when I'm too lazy to turn on my computer. It's actually my mums and I only take it when I'm in a lazy mood. If you travel by bus a lot, they're handy too. But, I definitely prefer the laptop.

Good learning curve, is it not? I hope the trials work for you.

Absolutely. I'm finding the more I understand, the easier it's getting to branch out. Should be obvious, but it wasn't to me xD

I've somewhat named my laptop.. In 2011 when I was at university, I put a bear sticker on it as many of us had the same laptop.. His name is Barry/Beary. My tablet is called Bobby.

If you do get one, hope you find some use for it.

Learning, learning, learning.. We all find the easy facts the hard way, hahah.

When it dies, you could put him in a box, bury him in the garden with a nice bunch of cars on top. ... Or if it's a her, flowers would work well too.

Oh my goodness, this is gorgeous. I'm definitely seeing heaps of improvement here. I know your pain with fur, though. I prefer to do detailed fur traditionally, but it's still a pain in the neck. One of these days, I shall figure out the ways of drawing fur properly. XD

That's how I've been practicing actually! I've been playing around with mah pencil crayons lol. It's very relaxing :3
Ugh, I've read countless tutorials and watched endless streams trying to find the magic key. I see how they're doing it, but then I go to try and it's like... "Nope, not working" xD
One day we'll figure out the secret....or die trying! (Okay maybe not die..but.)
