Description
Yes, we are drawing a raccoon in this tutorial. XDThis isn't really a drawing tutorial, but more of the techniques, and different ideas you can do while drawing! Maybe you didn't know there was so many different types of shading out there, so now you have an open mind to try others. :3 I didn't go into much detail, but I think it should be enough.
Close up of how to get sharpened lines: [link]
A full drawing tutorial [link] found here: [link]
Done using Adobe Photoshop CS, with a tablet.

Thanks very much. The only think I'm a little confused on is the settings for the brush tightening. Under texture, your texture is showing a top of black and a bottom of a grid. Mine has a pattern and I can't seem to find this grid/black combination. but then I didn't even know where the brush thing was before so I guess I'm improving a little

This is so cool! Specially the shading part, I suck so much at shading, it never comes out how I want it to be.
Thanks for making it

It's sooo cute! Thanks very much, but I could do with some help. I need it really for the lineart, but it didn't work at all. The lineart came out as it usually does, not like yours.
