Freehand Painting with Photoshop
For this tutorial I decided to paint freehand with Adobe Photoshop, rather than my usual method of scanning in a pencil sketch and using the smudge tool to get the blending effect.
The whole process was done on the fly with no references or pre planning. I went with a painterly style to give it a fresher, more lively look.
This method took a bit longer to complete as opposed to my usual way of doing things, but the end result has a lot more punch to it.
I suggest you read through the entire tutorial before you begin...
