    Yes and no. This volume is dedicated to development of technique itself (smudge painting), with primary examples on fur and hair. Next volume shows how this technique can be put further in painting portraits. Third one is a bit disconnected from the first two, since it is based on mixed brush and a bit different approach. Personally, as per my taste smudge painting works better and produces more "lifelike" portraits, but this is very subjective thing ;)

    Thanks for clarifying . . . I swear I saw this posted on Demonoid years ago . . . I'll give it a look and see if I can dig anything up. If so - I'll post here.

    There's a gentleman on Flickr who does phenomenal work using this smudge process named Ray Guselli
    Check it out here:

    What is interesting, there is a course from where he did learn, at least it contains image which he uses on Flickr as a banner :)

    And, as I said smudge painting can produce fantastic results, but it requires a certain skills, a lot of patience (which I don't have ha ha), as well as good knowledge of mixing colors (he shows it also pretty well in his colorization of B&W work).

    Also, there are two Guselli's big (more than an hour) tutorials on YouTube:

    1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZ58GgheGHk
    2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0Qdw97i9Ik

    Regards!

    Mirror expired; perhaps another willing contributor?? Not on any active drives at present - if after the Holidays I "re-discover" this - I'll post accordingly . . . :cool:
