But really great work, also really inspiring! I also like how the eyes aren't the same size :)

Very nice. Love the ground and shadows, make the whole thing quite realistic(*)

(*) except the rightmost "T" of "TEXT" which seems to float a bit (possibly not enough shadow)

Hi Chris...where did you get the fur brush. I tried to do that with your brushes you posted for that tutorial a while back, but they don't make fur.

Thanks guys!
The shadows was hand painted with a smooth ellipse brush. Not perfect. ;)


Molly, you (and all others of course) can download my fur-brush from Deviantart:

The eyes (7 files) are on my G+drive:

@Chris...I downloaded your fur brush and I can't get those darn dynamics figured out. I made text and selected it but I get get my fur to look like yours, the fur stays inside the selected...I can't get it colored. You you give a few hints as how to make it look like yours? :oops: PLEEEZE!

Here is a short video how i did it:
I use the text only as template and paint over it with the fur brush. ;)
Than the eyes and some hairs over it. Color the fur layers.
I did not show the bumpmapping: new layer from visible and add
gaussian blur 100. Use the blur as bumpmap for the fur layer.

Thanks a lot Chris, now I just hope to get it written down in slow motion. That is so cool. (I hate those dynamics)

That's cool, Lyle!

Since I don't have a very steady hand with a paintbrush, I used paths and stroked them.

Like the addition of the ears O. lol

Yeah; I used the machine font that was posted a while back and unclosed the paths before stroking. :)
