Five zombified drawing exercises with Adobe Photoshop.
Â
Three hours of training. Taught frighteningly well.
Session 1: Sketching
Watch as Justin Cook draws each of the five characters, and shares tips that you’ll only hear from a professional illustrator.
Session 2: Inking
Even old pros to Photoshop can probably use a refresher in inking. Justin combines the pressure senstive brush tools and the pen tool to paint a beautiful layer of ink with an emphasis on line variety.
Session 3: Coloring
Using dedicated layers, Justin finishes up these masterpieces with shading and full color.
