A New Challenge-Animals Fur

[angelize]

Hello Claudia, Welcome to Talkgraphics

I see from your profile you are using Designer Pro X, DPX has a wonderful shape builder and eraser tool that you can use to create a very natural looking fur effect. I have attached a step by step tutorial in .xar format that you can download and take apart the vector art as well as follow my steps. In this tutorial I have done an ear but it should give you the idea of how to do the rest of the animal.

I thought that tutorial by Gary was he best! although there has been others on this subject, Egg's doing Chewbacca was also good: http://www.xaraxone.com/guest/guest40/page_1.htm
If you find Gary's difficult start off with Egg's as it is simpler. I did a different style of bear and used these two brushes which you can use no problems but it wasn't as good as Gary's.
