When drawing fur, or adding fur details – brushes are your best friend!
I am not a pro at using fur, but I’ve found a few tips that will help your fur detailed items look like “fur”.
For this bag, I did a “fur” trim. It was my first attempt and there’s still room for much improvement, but it’s a great first step!
– I used this brush to create the trim. I tweaked the size, color, opacity and flow:
– Once satisfied, I erased parts of the outer fur to make it a bit more even. Brushing in parts rather than large strokes or sections will make it SO much easier.
– Afterwards, create a a new brush and drag it to the top of the layer.
– With the new brush, I used the brush tip below and changed the color to a shade darker (or whatever you want the fur to be. Ex: for black fur, I would do a light gray, dark gray, white and off white brush). From there I drew little strokes all over the fur/where I wanted them placed.
– Afterwards, create a new brush, change the color and draw more lines/strokes. Repeat and do this until you’re satisfied with how the “fur” looks.
I drew my lines near one another, not on top.
