TUTORIAL // creating vibrant skintones (Patreon)

Here it is: this month’s tutorial! It’s on creating vibrant skintones and addresses the issue of muddy or lifeless skintones in your art. It contains:

• A demonstration of what not to do

• A skintone study to demonstrate which qualities of skin I am to capture in my art

• A re-do of the first demo, this time how to do it right

• 3 more skintone studies showing different types of skin

There’s a lot of overlap with the choosing colors and sculpting with color tutorials, so be sure to check those out too if you are struggling with the technique! If you’re working in procreate, I also have a procreate painting tutorial that shows how I use a similar process on the iPad.

As always, enjoy and if you have any questions, ask away! :)
