Description
Quick Cell shading tutorial for you guys. Hopefully It will help you!The fur patterns I use when shading is really stylized, it took my forever to finally learn, it takes everyone time. So don't get discouraged if you don't get it right the first time.
Additionally, this really requires a tablet. This is also pretty much just for SAI users.
But enjoy! I hope this helps people learn my style of cell shading.

How do you usually get that sort of patttern for the fur? Like is it a specific style or is it just something you can do and train your write for it?

What you are doing basically is shading the clumps of fur. You can train yourself to see where the clumps will be. Also of course, the fur is different lengths in different places so that helps to shade. I suggest using reference photos of fur when shading, eventually you'll learn to see where the fur would be and shade it. But as always, remember the light source.
Also, this tutorial is a bit outdated, this is a more resent one --->

You're welcome! This is rather old so I hope it helps. I do have a more resent tutorial, but I do need to do a more detailed one. Maybe a cell shading speedpaint tutorial would be more useful? I'll consider doing one like that.

Gosh, this is incredible! I've always wondered how you do your shading XD
I use Photoshop Elements, but this might just work as the programs are fairly similar *crosses fingers*
Great job as always Jenn C:
