Final Product What You'll Be Creating
Today, we have another Psd Premium tutorial exclusively available to Premium members. If you want to take your digital painting skills to the next level, then we have an awesome tutorial for you. Learn more after the jump!
This Premium Tutorial is Filled with Creative Tips
Without a doubt, my favourite new feature in Photoshop CS5 is the Mixer brush. When you see the demos of people using it, it looks great, but when I first got to use it, I was a bit confused. Each brush has 5 different attribute settings and then another 4 canvas settings to get your head around. In this tutorial I will take you through some of the mixer brush settings and demonstrate how to use them to make a fantasy based image with 2 of the biggest rats ever to blight a city.
Today’s tutorial was written by David and Sarah Cousens who run Cool Surface from the South West England.

You guys should know that in digital painting, tutorial is just only 10%, all the rest is drawing skill. And If you couldn’t do drawing with a pencil & a paper, don’t even think about buying a graphic tablet or do this tutorial. It doesn’t look that easy, seriously. There’re many free basic digital painting tutorials on DeviantArt that you should try 1st before doing this.
Nice painting!!!
Wanna learn full tutorial.
This is cool!! loved doing it!
