What you will learn
In this series of tutorials we cover the fundamentals of texturing characters in Photoshop. We will start off by setting up our Photoshop document in a way that will be optimal for texture painting. Then we'll start laying down our base colors, highlights, and shadows. Once we're happy with our color selection, we'll continually refine the textures until we're happy with the result.
