This tutorial is about a very specific workflow I use: combining the lasso tool and a brush or gradient so that you have perfect edge control, but also softer edges that blend beautifully into your drawing. In this video, I run you through this process in both Photoshop and Procreate, and discuss the benefits and advantages of working this way!
Key lessons include:
How you can create interesting selections with the lasso tool
Which brushes you can use to get a nice mix of soft and hard edges
How you can slowly build up detail iin a way that gives texture and interest to your drawing
This tutorial is 28 minutes long, and comes with subtitles and a cheat sheet that gives an overview of the most important information from the video!
