User:Flamingomom3/Markings Tutorial

Having trouble drawing certain markings on a character art? Well, this tutorial shows how to do them all!

Classic or Striped Tabby
This shows how to make the classic tabby

Firstly, after you've filled in the base color, draw your tabby stripes using the burn tool, set at "midtones" and at the brush size of 3 or 5. Then, blur them with a size three blur tool (or a size one, for smaller stripes). Be careful not to blur the lineart!



Then, break out the smudge tool (size 3 for larger stripes, size 1 for smaller ones) and smudge the stripes in the direction the fur would be going (as shown below). If need be, blur the stripes more afterwards.



Then, add shading and highlights (learn how in different tutorials).
