What you'll learn
In this Photoshop tutorial, we'll learn how to paint compelling and great-looking characters. We'll address a wide variety of common painting challenges that character artists encounter by painting three separate characters. Along the way, we'll cover everything from painting realistic musculature and eyes to creating believable cloth and metal textures. By the end of this Photoshop training, you'll be able to take your own character sketches and polish them into professional-level, marketable assets. Software required: Photoshop CC.
