Digital Tutors - 在Photoshop中绘画逼真的三维皮肤纹理
手绘真实的皮肤纹理是一个话题，但是很多艺术家回避它。他们一般都是通照片投影到他们的模型上。虽然很多时候，这是一个可行的解决方案，但是手工画这些纹理是真的很简单，如果你知道从哪里开始。本教程将涵盖绘画真实的皮肤纹理的技巧和工作的过程。
Hand painting realistic skin textures is a topic that many artists shy  away from. So much so that the first thing they reach for are  photographs to project onto their model.
While many times this  is a viable solution, hand painting these textures is really very simple  if you know where to begin. This tutorial covers the process of  painting realistic skin textures for a hand asset starting from the  inside and working out.
We will begin by focusing on the bump  map for our hand which will allow us to add additional surface details  that may influence our diffuse textures. From here, we will get started  painting a subdermal and epidermal layers of tissue. After finishing off  the diffuse color, we will then create a specular map that will control  how highlights react to the various surfaces of our skin. While  painting all three maps, we will learn how to fully utilize Photoshops  3D toolset as part of our texturing process.
After completing  this training, you will have learned a workflow that will allow you to  paint realistic looking skin texture on the hands of your models.
