lol, I like it <3 Well, the other reason why I didn't give it a sillier title was on the off-chance that it might offend you somehow. Like, I know people are really close with their characters and fursonas, so I didn't want to inject too much/the wrong meanings into things, just in case >_>
I have a number of tutorials on dA (and here, but they don't display right). They're linked on my main page, but for convenience: http://jocarra.deviantart.com/gallery/29623031
Mostly trying to get a smudgy/messy underpainting more or less looking good, then doing fine detail work on top of that which often combines scribbling with hair-by-hair detail. Lately (the past half year or so) I've taken to using brushes to make the process faster, although it yields a slightly different style than something done 100% by hand, with no fancy brushes at all, but I've favoured it as it takes significantly less time. I charge by estimating how much time I think stuff will take me, so it works out for clients, too (ideally, anyway) :b
I use one or two of my own, but these are the main ones I use: http://danluvisiart.deviantart.com/.....Pack-118954791
- The chalk/texture 2/cloud brushes are great for general blotchy textures, help add richness and keep things from looking too flat/perfect/monotone, particularly texture 2, I find.
- The texture brush is great for noisy textures, like certain types of cloth and really short fur.
- The hair brush is great for long flowy hair (like http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11058248/ ) but also can be used in short strokes for fur.
- The fur brush is helpful in underpainting, and what I use for cheap/fast fur for speedpaints and stuff ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10685873/ ).
- The pore brush is helpful with human skin ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11218574/ ) and has other useful applications, like scales ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10420234/ )
