Description
Yep, I'm telling everyone how I made the wolves in Wolf Mates II - haha, maybe I shouldn't... but I'm going to, anyways. It's shockingly simple - anyone can do it!
Hope it makes sense, and that it's useful... and that I'll get to see lots of furry things in the near future

Omigosh, this is sooo helpful. I've been looking around for tutorials by artists who rock at making fur like you do.

*chuckles* Ahhh, I see! I'm sure that could work :3 Especially if you set your brush setting to multiply or screen, so it sort of retains shading information about his skin and lighting whatnot.

Oh, thatΒ΄s a great idea! Now I just kinda have to figure out to do the setting... I donΒ΄t know pretty much about the program :s

Try making a new layer over the photo, and setting it to multiply for the darker hairs, and screen for the lighter ones.

I have a question about this tutorial, if i may:
What size is the wolf actually being painted at in this? I ask because it give no real indication as to how big the suggested brushes actually are, relative to the critter...
π: 0 β©: 1
It was being painted at the size you see up at the top

So about 200 pixels across, yes? That's a lot of detail for something so small.

Oooooooooooo I cannot wait to try this out! ^^ I can't believe the process of anything so complex looking could be so simple, but I guess that's just me over thinking things again. XD Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the world, this is really wonderful! ^^

Hehe, thanks a lot, and you're welcome!
And yes, I still use tons of scribbling for my fur

For fun? Since I could hold a pencil (1986ish)
More seriously? (ie. trying to actually draw WELL) Since 1997ish.
"Professionally?" Since 2003ish.

I finished the wolf - using your tutorial
It was kind've difficult because I don't have a graphics tablet but still, it was fun to try out!

*nods* A graphics tablet always helps, but the good thing about this tutorial is it can be done with just the mouse, too
Nice work
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, I might think about buying a mouse too whilst looking for tablets lol
To be honest, I wasn't using a ref ... I will when I try it again though ... Thanks though

Great job
