I normally paint in Paint Tool Sai.. so I'm a bit rusty with Photoshop. I decided to do a lil' warmup today in PS though to play with a couple brushes. maybe 15-20 minutes total? Its pretty stylized, but I had fun with it. :) Going back, I'd probably focus on the hair a bit more, adjust some things with liquify, and put in more actual texture on the skin.
Honestly, for all the smack Paint Tool Sai gets, its simple interface and ease of use keeps me coming back. Photoshop is pretty much industry standard though, and I sometimes feel a bit behind on things. I'm going to try and make more of an effort to work and get comfortable again in it.
For those interested, the brushes I used are all from Loish! I've had the set downloaded for years now, but never got a great chance to play with them. :)
Also! Just to note, I've started going back and making some Patreon posts public, and using the early access feature here on Patreon. I'm only doing this for things that I've also shared on social media, but going forward I'm going to make an effort to keep most of my WIP and sketches here.
I might post the occasional sketch publicly just to remain active with art posts, but I'm going to try and focus on warmups and finished stuff only. :) This way you guys get some actual exclusive stuff, which I've been a bit bad at lately.
