Description You, too, can draw painstakingly detailed fur in under twelve hours! :D

I kid, I kid

If you make something with this tut as a guide, show me!



2012 edit: I was thirteen when I wrote this, please excuse the obnoxious wording.

2015 edit: I would now recommend drawing the 'swoosh' hairs more carefully than 'swoosh' unless you're drawing an anime porcupine

snoissesbo In reply to ??? [2010-11-28 02:44:37 +0000 UTC]

Lovely. I never draw anything that has fur because I had no idea how to paint realistic fur in a way that is compatible with the way I paint other things... but not anymore This is going to be very, very useful.

wow. the end result is so realistic! when you're doing a whole body do you do it all at once or in small batches?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Snowpuddles In reply to rice-chex [2010-11-25 07:41:40 +0000 UTC]

I usually work up to about step 6 in batches and then complete the rest all together. Makes colouring it much easier.
