Hi there

this is the first time I post my art here, and this is also my first seriouse attempt at CG art...

I used mouse in PS7 to paint over a scanned sketch. The background is without reference though...

id like some tips on how to make the foliage and fur look more real/better, and of course som general C&C

thanks

Hi BeaverFlens,

I like the concept! he bear has a good deal of character already.
There's a good tutorial on painting fur: (Painting Llama Fur (http://www.asurfael.net/tutorials/fur/) ) that's pretty much the same as most fur tutorials out there. Essentially building from dark to light. using varied strokes as you go.

Post some updates as you go along!

Cheers
