Working in the game industry under tight deadlines forced me to come up with a dependable photoshop workflow. Ctrl+Paint is my attempt to organize these findings into clear, concise videos to share with the community.
The Internet is full of tutorials. What makes these different? Here you’ll find a more ‘foundational’ resource. The videos on Ctrl+Paint will focus on basic principles and techniques that can be applied to your artwork. I believe strongly in explaining the ‘why’, not just the ‘how’. 1 - Photoshop Painting - Mirror Action.mp4 2 - Photoshop Painting - Making a Swarm.mp4 3 - Photoshop Painting - Exponential Patternmaking.mp4 4 -
