Hey Everyone, I just had a quick question for artists who might know best. What are some tips on rendering realistic characters without using photos as much, quickly in production? If you have a bit of a system that you use or even a good Gumroad tutorial that’s great for teaching how to achieve it that would be Amazing!

Thanks!
