Photoshop Lessons (HD) Basics for digital painting, photo editing

For more free tutorials check out my site http://ipaintgirls.com. You can also check out my free graphic novel, End of all.

This series is the basic training you need to get up and running with Photoshop, so that you can be a better digital painter. Knowing how to use all the tools and options that pertain to digital painting, photomanipulation, and photo editing will save you lots of time, so it's worth learning the basics first.

The full series will be available on my website for $7, but for now enjoy the first few free parts.

I will be covering how to use all the important tools of the trade, these being the tools I use everyday as a professional artist. I will also show important menu options, settings, techniques, etc. One technique, which I will post for free will be how to do breasts enlargements in Photoshop, the easy way, yet professional way. Anyone can do it!

Once the series is available, I will link to it here and on my website so you can purchase it. Enjoy!

I've used them all, and I must say the larger tablets, 9x12 are much cooler and should be used in pen mode. However, smaller tablets are just fine, but I prefer them in mouse mode.

I recent got a Cintiq 12wx, and boy it is sweet. If you can afford it, that is what I recomend. It feels the most natural, and I get work done much faster.

I just bought me a Wacom Bamboo Fun and it is sweet, I can use it for photo editing as well as drawing... I can rotate and zoom in pictures with the slightest gestures with my fingers. Its a medium size tablet but its sweet. I am still learning photoshop and thanks to your tutorials I am getting the help I need, I'm just scared to actually draw because it is out of my comfort zone still. Thank you for your tutorials man.

Hi, Im new to drawing overall, i found your tutorials REALLY valuable! Especially the Head tutorials, since I really want to learn how to draw a whole figure one day... I mainly use a pencil and a crap load of paper

I was wondering what model (tablet) you use, and do you feel the larger/the better, or the small ones 6.5x5.5 inch ranges are more than enough? Adobe zooms in/out, that would affect how large you stroke the stylus around, Hope im clear about this. :) or use integrated graphic tablet

Thanks! I look forward to the next tutorials, and I'll be willing to pay for them. I have been following your work the last 6months and am a fan of yours now.

Thanks for all your hardwork!
