Description Skin is fascinating, this is not a skin tones tutorial but more of a skin optics kinda thing. Btw I never went to art school or whatever, so erm, this is not the absolute word on the topic, just a collection of thoughts.

For info about what brushes I use check out the Blending Tutorial:[link]

I'm using Photoshop CS2 and Wacom Intuos 2 for this.


Edit: apologies to those of you who are freaked out by the little skin balls, hahahahaha, sorry really

This is really interesting and informative. I never thought of saturating the midtones. And the veins look really cool. I'm definately going to store this in my head.

After checking my closet for spheres of floating flesh, I found all the texturing and lighting notes fairly helpful. The colour guides are a nice touch too. Thank you.
