More about this downloadable

The Elements: V1 eBook is a 70-page guide to 2D digital painting and can be followed in most software packages that support paintbrushes and layers. Within this downloadable PDF eBook we have chosen some of the most commonly used aspects of digital painting and asked two or three professional artists to cover a specific theme or "element”, resulting in two or three different styles and techniques that can be viewed side by side.

In the first volume of the Elements eBook series, we cover such topics as painting eyes, fabric, fire and smoke, flesh wounds, and fur and hair, with the help of such talented and experienced artist as Benita Winckler, Natascha Roeoesli, Richard Tilbury, Stephanie Loftis, Adonihs and Shane Madden.

Contents and contributors

Chapter 1 - Eyes
This chapter features Richard Tilbury and Stephanie Loftis. While Richard explains how to create a human eye, Stephanie tackles painting an animal's eye.

Chapter 2 - Fabric
Natascha Roeoesli and Richard Tilbury look at painting fabric and we see them taking two very different approaches. Natascha explains how she painted a textured fabric and Richard shows us how he painted weathered leather armour.

Chapter 3 - Fire and Smoke
In the third chapter, Richard Tilbury and Adonihs look at painting fire and smoke. Richard concentrates more on the smoke aspect, keeping the fire quite small, and Adonihs shows us how he paints flames, glows and embers, and renders smoke.

Chapter 4 - Flesh Wounds
Benita Winckler and Richard Tilbury address painting flesh wounds in this chapter. Benita concentrates more on a Vampire bite and its effect on the skin, while Richard shows us how he added a deep laceration and blood to his character.

Chapter 5 - Fur and Hair
In the final chapter of this eBook, Richard Tilbury and Shane Madden cover how to paint fur and hair. Richard concentrates on painting animal fur, for which he uses photo reference in order to get a realistic representation, and Shane tackles painting human hair.
