.quick & dirty tutorial: paint and line drawing without the tablet

2009-03-28T04:09:08Z

I put together an introductory tutorial on a way to start working toward paint and drawing effects in Photoshop. Very basic, probably more an introduction to one method than anything else. Done in CS4 but adaptable to PS7, mostly messing with filters and blending layers.

This tutorial deals with masks, tonal values and watercolor effects... among other little details. The icon was made in Photoshop 7 but the tutorial is explained with screenshots of CS4, and shortcuts are given for both versions. This means, as far as I know, that this tutorial can be adapted to pretty much any version of PS you may have.

This tutorial works best on light images that you are able to take advantage of any negative space. If any area of the subject is cut off you will need to fix this first or select another image.

Hey all :) I just wrote 2 tutorials and a sort-of How To for using Exclusion layers over at my icon journal mowd_icons, located HERE.
Rules and Info:
-This tutorial is NOT translatable to other programs, because of the Color Adjustment Layers.
-DO NOT COPY THIS TUTORIAL EXACTLY!!! This is why I WILL NOT upload a psd. file, because I've had a few of my icons copied already.
-Let me know what you think of the tutorial! I like to know how I'm doing :)

I simply will only accept members that I feel will be contributing some good to this community. If you are not accepted, please wait at least 7 days before reapplying.

I just realized that this community's layouts still use S1, and was partially obscured by the navigation panel. So I re-designed the layout, and added a new header. Take a look if you're interested: elite_tutorial

Keep up the great work, tutorial-writers! Our community is growing by leaps and bounds, and is now being watched by over 1,400 members. As always, we are open to new tutorial-writers, so please encourage great artists to apply. I will be posting a new application entry soon.

Your mod,
F.E.
