That's an awesome idea!  I've tried using the blur or smudge tool and it never works the way I want it too, but this looks amazing!  I'll have to try it out!

CaledonCat [2013-01-09 01:14:55 +0000 UTC]

This is simply awesome thaks for sharing the way you draw

do you do it all on one layer? I did that one because I lost my png. file but still loved what I already had so I just finished on one layer.Was difficult but so much fun^^

griffsnuff In reply to CaledonCat [2013-01-10 08:36:54 +0000 UTC]

mgscreative [2012-08-05 03:59:55 +0000 UTC]

i asbolutely love your method of colouring! i was just wondering, could you potentially do a tutorial on how you pick your base colours? i have SO much trouble picking colours.

griffsnuff In reply to mgscreative [2012-08-05 13:30:12 +0000 UTC]

Read about color theory and color contrasts that way you get to know some of the basics behind it.

Kaleoscope [2012-07-08 00:24:52 +0000 UTC]

This is great! I don't do Digital but it does give one a good grasp on color harmony and compliments. The part about reusing colors is also very helpful, and all PS lingo aside, it gives one a good intro onto painting with a restricted pallet.

Galaxy-Squid [2012-06-01 14:37:22 +0000 UTC]

This tutorial is absolutely amazing
When I draw, I tend to get confused on what I'm trying to accomplish, and my colors end up all over the place. I use the smudge brush, and the final drawing never turns out as paint-like as I'd wanted! But this really helps me so much, thank you Griff!!!
