I hadn't seen these before. Great studies! I especially love the simulated brush strokes. Do you use personal custom brushes for that effect? Mind sharing them with me?

Not really, I think you can use any brush set and achieve similar effects. My particular set is a combination of the brushes used by Maciej Kuciara, Shaddy Safadi and JonasDeRo, if you get theirs, you'll have what I use and more. Instead of downloading other people's brushes, I would suggest giving yourself a few days for experimentation with mixer brush, smudge tool and brush settings and building your own set, that way you will know how brushes ork and will be able to use them in accordance with your personal style and methods.

That is an awesome response. I've become addicted to downloading brush sets, and then only using one or two (or sometimes none), so I think I needed to hear this.
Thank you very much.

I like the experimenting on the skin tone balls. Been grappling with skin myself lately. It's a tough thing to talk myself through, because I feel like I should be focusing on line more for what I want to do, but color is just what's holding my interest right now.

Grappling with skin? Is that slang for masturbation? I'm sorry, English is not my first language...
I'd say do what you feel like, the time when you need to do what you gotta do comes sooner than you think.

These are absolutely gorgeous. Did you use a reference? (If so, can you point me in the direction of them? These seem like they have boss-lighting).

Thanks for the kind words! I used photos of myself for reference. I'm not willing to share them with you (or anyone else ), but I can tell you that I used a Redhead 800W light, in case you'd like to recreate them using some other cooperative male.

Love the brush strokes! And the fleshy color tones are spot on. Good work, keep it up!
