Fur Tutorial (Digital Painting in PS)

•If you repost anywhere, please link back to me. There's no need to credit or link back to me if you only apply the instructions/tips of this tutorial to your own work (but adding this to your favorites would be much appreciated if you do so). A link to your work in the comments so I can see how you used it would be awesome.

•Some of the steps involve making changes that are so subtle that it's hard to tell the difference between them. I made a gif animation to accompany this tutorial so that it's easier to see the difference between the pictures in each step. It's posted here.

•I tried to be as clear as possible while still keeping things concise. I'm happy to answer questions about anything that's confusing or unclear.
