About the video: Textures and handcrafted elements to finish details

Overview

“An organic touch makes digital illustration look much more natural. Therefore, I want to show you how to experiment with basic materials such as ink or crayons and develop different textures and / or elements that you can add to your illustrations.

In this video lesson Akimaro addresses the topic: Textures and handcrafted elements to finish details, which is part of the Domestika online course: Digital Illustration with Manga Influence. Learn how to create atmospheric scenes and emotional characters with Photoshop.
