Granted that this tutorial was posted quite a while ago, but Thank you! I've learned quite a bit just reading it, and imagine I'll learn even more when applying the techniques to an actual picture. Thank you

This was so helpful, thank you for making this.
However I have one question, did you let the paint dry before adding the midtone color and the shading?

ElvenstarArt In reply to 87frozenhearts [2008-06-24 03:16:18 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad it could help! And yes, unless I'm going for some special effect, I almost always let each layer of paint dry first.
