TUTORIAL // painting hair (Patreon)

Hey patrons, here’s this month’s tutorial! It’s the topic that kept being overshadowed by other topics in the polls: painting (and drawing) hair! I broadened the topic a bit to make it about leading the eye and using hair as a decorative element, so hopefully it’s useful to those of you who don’t focus as much on hair in their artwork as I do :)

For the sketching, I always used the Macalabs HB brush (more info & link to the set here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/step-by-step-i-34615265)

In the video, I mention a process video where you can see how I’m constantly layering on new strands and layers of hair as I detail and render. That’s this video: https://www.patreon.com/posts/process-video-33495295

As always, I hope you enjoy and let me know if you have any questions!!
