I've been working on illustrations for a book recently, using photoshop in a realist style that is very challenging, and something of a departure for me. The end result reminds me of Northern Renaissance paintings where every hairy imperfection is rendered faithfully. The composition and lighting both have to be strong to save the viewer from "texture overload". The end result is very engaging, though and invites scrutiny. That's why I've included a closeup version below.

Hey, these illustrations are really cool! Would love to know more about your method of working in photoshop... do you start out rough on paper or get straight to work digitally with a cintiq/tablet?
