A quick guide before choosing colors

How to adapt your technique to each animal

Fluffy fur, a transparent wing and prehistoric skin each call for a different approach.

1 Cats, rabbits and bears

Fur

Build the volume first, adding individual hair strokes only in the final layers.

2 Dogs

Direction and breed

Observe how the fur changes between the muzzle, chest, legs, ears and tail.

3 Butterflies

Wings and patterns

Repeat the main shapes and save veins, dots and highlights until last.

4 Dinosaurs and marine animals

Texture and contrast

Alternate smooth and rough areas to give scales, plates and surfaces more depth.
