I know I'm way late on this, but I've got to ask, how did you get that chalky/rough texture for your color strokes? This looks like it was colored digitally, but that kind of effect is beyond me on how you wouldn't do it using "real" materials. Hopefully, that's not asking you to spill too many of your trade secrets or at the least you won't mind pointing me in the right direction. My most humble thanks.
Hey Chris, It's no secret at all... I'm just using standard photoshop brushes. I pick a couple that are "off the shelf" and then go into the brush presets and adjust 'em to get whatever type of effect that feels "right". After that, I'm just painting the stuff to look like dry brush...or after that, adding some grunge here and there to make the image look "distressed". Make sense?
