Description
Hello people!
A lot of you asked me to do this one (it was right up there with blood, tears, and guts exploding! (just kidding)), so finally, here it is!
I hope you guys find it useful, and please go ahead and try it out!
I'm sorry to those who don't have Photoshop, but I know that most other drawing programs (Paint Tool SAI, Gimp, DA Muro, and such) all have tools similar to those used in this tutorial. All you have to do is find them, and I'm sure you can get the same (or even better) effects!

This might be easy for me on Medibang Paint Pro since it's kind of like Photoshop or PaintTool Sai.

Using the selection tool in SAI isn't the best way to do shadows. I just use the regular brush, but I know others who use the selection brush (forgot its real name), which works pretty well.

Hmm...I guess my average is 40 layers, but I normally collapse them eventually.
And thank you!

Hey River~! I loved the tutorial and super helpful ^^ Wondering if you could update / make new one perhaps? With Paint Tool SAI, and how you select/deselect to shading? It doesn't have to be cat since I know you're exploring beyond, but anyhow on different topic congratulations!

This might be a stupid question, but, in photoshop, which brush do you use for rain?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I created that brush.
But the way that I created it was by stretching out the regular round brush, increasing the scattering and spacing.
