Fur Tutorials & Resources


I did a previous article on some awesome resources as far as Anthro art is concerned but I wanted to highlight some awesome tutorials, brushes and resources that have sprout up sense then!

DeviantART has such a wide variety of resources available to all beginning, improving, and skilled artists alike! We never stop learning and being able to provide some of those resources I hope will help you as they've helped me!

Some of the more 'daunting' tasks with Anthro art is anatomy but I get a lot of questions about fur and how to draw it or paint it in. This includes direction of fur, direction of strokes, what brushes to use, what stock to use, etc! It's nearly limitless!

So without further adue, here are some great resources that I hope you will find helpful to you!


Questions to the community


1. What is most probalamatic for you in respects to anatomy? 


2. What type of tutorial would you like to see?


3. What type of tutorial is most helpful to you? Video? Photo step by step?

Fur Brushes & Tutorials


Here is a great list of some awesome resources in regards to fur brushes. There's nothing wrong with using brushes to help you along in your digital art experience but make sure to not 100% rely on them. Though they are an amazing tool, try and use them for a base and then work your way around with details, stroke motions and get a good feel for how the fur should be!


Free Lineart


Practice makes perfect and you can utilize your skills and practice them on some free line art provided by some extremely talented and gracious artists on DeviantART! Make sure to follow their guidelines when using their free line art (like credit if you upload!)

To answer the first question; I am terrible at drawing any sort of body that's remotely human and upright xD I just can't proportion it right >:I
