This shot shows more detail being worked into the body
Once I have the detail of the fur in I then lightly mist over the dark areas with a transparent black which makes the white look like a shine on the black fur. I mist white over the light areas allowing the original grey show through which gives the fur depth
I continue til the whole picture is done, then if needed add more detail, here is the end result
I hope this was fairly easy to understand, if anyone has questions please ask and I will try and explain more.

Wow! That's great, Neil. Thanks- you make it look easy, just eight quick steps and shazam!
What airbrush do you use?
PS Did you know you could have added the second batch of photos as a reply to your first batch, so they come up underneath the first lot, instead of as a new thread...! Letterville has a five pic limit per single reply, not per thread.

Thanks for the "how-to", especially how you tie it all together.
