Description
Just a quick preview close up of an image ive been working on this week.Everyone asks me how i paint the hair in some of my images and i think this preview might help a bit. Basically i start with larger softer brushes to work out the main hair mass and gradually work smaller and smaller until im actually painting strands... then i use a softer slightly larger brush again to lightly shade over the finer hair so that they dont stand out too strongly.
This is all work in progress and ive only just doubled the resolution of the image, so i guess the really fine stuff is yet to go in.
enjoy

I don't think it's just how you draw hair, it's how you make if fit around the head so naturally and realistically! Its a gift!

Great work! I was just wondering if you could tell me what the resolution adjustments do when you are doing a digital painting. You said that you doubled it and I have no idea what that does....I've tried a few (they sucked.) and I'm trying to get the hang of it.
