Photoshop / Drawing tutorial resources


Recently, I started looking into drawing portraits and cartoons. Here are a few resources of people that inspire me in the way they teach online or in their style of work.

First attempt to use Photoshop to create a drawing. I used a small Wacom tablet and stylus. After viewing a few tutorials I was confident enough to start. Using layers, opacity and brushes worked ok, except I found myself messing up some layers in the end. I'm pretty happy with the endresult, although the portrait does not look a lot like the reference picture I used.

For inspiration I watched some tutorials by the inspirational Aaron Blaise (https://creatureartteacher.com/)
