Custom Brush Making and Background Painting - Frank Cho

This tutorial is a valuable one.

A lot of times, as a colorist, you can try to render with the basic brushes the things the line artist has drawn or you can try to find a different brush to fit the lines, but often it is nearly impossible or very difficult and time consuming to find the right brushes to fit the art.

Easier than that...

Making your own. The full background of this piece was painted this way using brushes I made with a special technique shared here! Even if you know how to make custom brushes, dont miss out on this technique to make special brushes to fit each artist using their own work.

It's Frank Cho through and through, and the BG immediately fits his lines.
