How to paint Elephant skin in acrylics

In this video I'll show how to paint realistic Elephant skin in acrylics. I'll explain the layering process, the brushes and best techniques to use to achieve a photo realistic painting. Painting Elephant or Rhino skin is dependant on good contrast. There needs to be a range of highlights, midtones and shadows to build up the three dimensional look of the skin texture. The brush technique and how we use the brushes is also important. - - - Pastel, Acrylic, Graphite & Tutorials: Patreon: www.patreon.com/zaratomsart Would you like to see what tutorials I have on Patreon?
