Description
ENGLISH VERSION FULLY REDONE. FRENCH VERSION COMING SOONJust for the record, this tutorial has already been online for two years.
Updated version now includes :
- tips about blending,
- a detailed schema about facial proportions,
- screenshots of the tools used and tips about these tools
- I fixed some typos.
About blending : NO, there's no specific tool used, I just used the paintbrush as mentionned clearly in the tutorial.
Pretty please guys, READ the tutorial before asking.
I've already received 4 notes about blending yesterday some seconds right after I reposed the tutorial, I know that part was somehow missing in the previous tutorial since I had not explained it in a very detailed way with painted examples (I thought that was clear enough but it apparently wasn't) but it's now fully explained.
Thank you!
I won't reply to any question about things already explained here unless someone has got real trouble figuring them out as I've got way too many other things to do so please read the tut carefully

TECHNICAL STUFF I've used Photoshop CS3 to paint this, you can download a free trial version on Adobe's website if you don't have it yet! Older versions will work too of course. I'm not sure you can find the Liquify tool in versions older than Photoshop CS though....
Original painting resolution : 9000 x 6714px, 300 dpi. No need to paint such a big image though... I just wanted to be able to print it on a very large size

You may translate it to share it if you want but PLEASE don't change it adding or removing things. Translation must be as accurate as possible to avoid things being hard to understand for the reader. THANK YOU

Thanks. I haven't looked at the update yet, but your tutorial helped me learn before. I gained a lot of skill difference from before I read your tutorial to after. I mean it, I may not have been able to grasp all of it, so I will check out the update to see if it helps my brain, but here is what I did with what your original tutorial showed me. Please keep in mind I was relatively new to digital painting, so the background, although thought out conceptually, was not done at my best.
