Here is a minor update on the Art Reference Journals I have been doing. For this one, there is a way to do eyes-but it is a way to add special effects.


Traditional Art:
>>>>>From  Magicalzombie's journal about watercoloring (advice): http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4164597/

>>>>>From  glowfox on using colored pencil to do solid color (There are important links to see too): http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4127386/

Digtital Art:
>>>>>From  Anuvia who has a youTube channel. She had posted two links to what to do when you use SAI and Photoshop (Note that she uses CS2.)
Shading: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5LU6PVAKGQ
Saving and coloring your lineart lines: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HofOJVXTtWY

>>>>> From  TamerKoh on how to make your drawings in high-resolution: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/11587705/ (I am guessing that if you are going to shade and lighten your characters and scenery, you will have to do it AFTER you enlarge and add base color.)

>>>>> From  mrsenpai on how to use SAI to make shading possible: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/13368799/ (NOTE: This is for SAI ONLY.)

>>>>> From  TungstenKitten If you are in the beginning to do speedpaint-have NO experience at all and want to do it step-by-step, he has posted nine photos on how he does his art:

Both (anatomy):
>>>>> From  Shuigetsu for facial expressions and body form: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4314816/

>>>>> From  SeanBT on how to to draw foot paws his way: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10751042/

>>>>> From  SolTimberFox on how to draw hand paws his way: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/10708098/

>>>>> From  mrsenpai- this is how you do eyes, but go with your instincts on how you want to draw them-this is for near realistic eyes: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12412517/
NEW! This is another example from the artist, but this time, you can add luminosity and glowy effects that will make your eyes amazing....: http://www.furaffinity.net/full/14011140/ It does not have to be digital.

(Of course, you can use their ways in drawing and add variation to eyes, hands and feet, but experiment and find whatever way is comfortable.)

What is important is that if your draws look too much like a different character or animal than you imagined, referencing is the best thing as  IsabellaPrice is showing you: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/11359770/

...and do look at this site too outside of FurAffinity:

Lastly, take a look at something positive-persevere---

(Sorry OpenCanvas or basic Apple/PC paint [Ex: Windows 7 Paint] users, I STILL don't have any tutorials specifically for you, but stay tuned as more users pop up with their tutorials, I could post another journal soon! Look for "Update #" in the subject header. )
Hope I'm helping you a lot. Thanks for reading!
