Description
Tutorial for painting a close-up of a Wolf (or any other furry creature).WARNING: large file. It might take a while before the tutorial shows up on your screen, so please, be patient. I was too lazy to add a preloader...
Use the buttons at the top of the tutorial to navigate through the slides. I have no idea why the text has turned out jagged and hard to read, so I apologise if you have difficulties reading it.
ARTIST'S COMMENTS
Thank you ever so much for my second DD ~AnimalLover345 and ^shelldevil !
EDIT: Due to popular demand I re-named the tutorial more appropriately "How to Paint a Wolf".
EDIT 2: Fixed all known spelling mistakes.
A tutorial I pulled together of my last Wolf piece. I don't know if it will be of help or use to anyone, but there's no harm in making one anyway! Please bear in mind that this is the first time I've drawn something this furry this close up, so I'm sure there are other ways of doing this too.
If you have any problems with viewing the tutorial or any questions or problems in general, please let me know. I'll be happy to help as much as I can
NOTE: The tutorial explains functions and options available in Adobe Photoshop CS2. Any older or newer version of Photoshop should still work just as well. I have no experience in any other digital editing program (such as GIMP or Corel Painter) so I have no idea to what extent you can follow the tutorial there. If anything, it might just give you an idea of how to draw similarly, but you will have to find out on your own I'm afraid.

I have learned a great deal. What do you think about using the settings to 'taper' the brushes?

I love this! C: Will give it a try soon~ I do have a question though, the tip at step 3, I dunno what I'm doing wrong but when I alt-click between the layers nothing happens. I'm using PS CS5. Thank you!

cerona In reply to skylar-eun [2012-08-05 13:26:15 +0000 UTC]
I'm glad you find it useful Alternatively, in the layer panel you can right-click on a layer and choose the "create clipping mask" option. This will link the layer you clicked on to the layer below, in the same way it would if you alt-clicked between them

This tutorial helps me a lot when it comes to eyes and nose, that is what i needed the most. But the fur tutorial seems like a nice way to mix with my own technique! It's so good, thanks so much for this tutorial.

I'm trying, but I've already realized I won't be able to even start making anything half as good as you.

We all have to start somewhere, and only with patience and practise you can improve
