Digital Painting Academy – Bonus Section (Paintable)

After the main learning paths there are two bonus sections: Textures & Materials and Resources.

Textures & Materials contains a bunch of exercises for more miscellaneous subjects like painting fur, organic textures, and stone.

There’s also a long list of videos about how to create and manipulate textures and brushes in Photoshop(very useful tips!).

Even though there are hundreds of brushes and textures available for download online, being able to adjust the ones you have or create new ones from scratch is essential.

Sometimes getting exactly what you want takes creating it yourself. It’s nice to have quick access to a manual for these powerful tools.

And the “Resources” area hosts a repository of coupons, freebies, and helpful links. There are brush sets, worksheets, productivity tools, and some valuable discount codes for a ton of premium art goodies.

When you work in a real classroom you have the advantage of having physical art supplies right at your fingertips. These digital resources have a bit of the same feeling.

It’s a nice bit of added value with your monthly subscription. And I’d say these bonus goodies are far more than you’d get in other digital art courses.
