Description
I want to do some illustrations with a textured look so I decided to try some different techniques. I don't want to use filters or brushes to get the effect, but focus on the 'marks' of the medium so it is rather time consuming. I'll figure it out.Weird random buffalo/turtle/thingy. Painter IX
I've lost my motivation.

It's hard to get texture just like that without any effects. But I do encourage using filters/brushes palette anyway! Because you can discover something really awesome.

Wow, really cool! Those texture lines really do pop out! Almost looks like a photo of a string work or a decorated cake when you look up close. XD It looks unbelievably awesome far away, really would make a great illustration!
The creature is really cute! And the piece on whole has such a great warm feeling about it. ^_^
Wonderful job, keep up the fantastic work!

Pretty awesome as usual. It looks like a baby dragon, kind of, and it reminds me of Where The Wild Things Are. :3

It's adorable! I wanna touch it, and run my hands through the curly fur! I can almost feel it!

I'm trying to think what noise it would make to equate a cat's purr at that...
Lol, thanks hun. I'm glad you got the feeling of curls and fur.

It is really rather cool~ :'D I love the colours you've chosen for the textured parts of it~ 
Texturing is quite time-consuming when not using filters/brushes/actual texture pictures *A* I admire you for doing this~! : D It makes me want to attempt a textured picture w/out an actual texture photo~ >v<

I have this annoying part of me that really likes the challenge of breaking my fingers off. I really want to make a technique that reflects a sort of colored pencil/pastel look, you know, like traditional dry mediums, for this small illustration series. I'm not sure how I'd approach every sort of subject though; this guy was easy to let go and have fun, I might be much more restrained on a human figure.

Well, if you want to do a coloured pencil sort of look, you could always just do the style where you point the brush one way (like a horizontal stripe) and fill the area in, while gapping it in certain areas~ Do it on a light opacity and then fill it in with an even lighter opacity brush on top, but going the different direction~ Then you can fill it in thickly in parts with colour~ It should produce a pretty nice coloured pencil effect with a texture to it, also 8D

When you say the other direction, do you mean a sort of crosshatching?
And Thank You!

Yah, it's like cross-hatching, except you can't really tell; all you can see is the textured-look~ 8D
