      You might want to try out Affinity Designer (which is similar to Adobe Illustrator). https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/
      With Designer, you can create vector shapes, and apply raster textures or brushes.

      "Switch between full featured vector and raster workspaces ... Add raster brush texture to your illustrations, ... mask and add grain to your crisp vectors"

      I can't remember for sure (since I have both), but you might need to get Affinity Photo as well as Affinity Designer in order to use the raster features in Designer.

      I was very excited when I saw that you can work with vector & raster in the same program. I'm just a beginner with this, but you can check out their website for examples.
      At the website above, scroll down to "Vector or raster, you decide" & you can toggle the raster effects on & off to see the difference on a vector illustration.
      Here's a short demo video that shows how you can paint raster images, or apply a raster texture to a vector shape in Designer: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/tutorials/designer/desktop/video/338830412/

      Affinity can export as (save as) all the major file types, including .psd — I haven't personally tried sending a .psd file to someone who uses Photoshop, so I can't vouch for it, but I really like the Affinity programs.

      Hello! I finished the shadow part of this course and wanted to get feedback on my work. This is only the shadows that I have done, I haven't done any kind of lighting. Please let me know what you think! Thanks!

      @Kevin-Longueil Took a bit time to answer, sorry! Thank you Kevin, this is helpful! Critique is always welcome 🙂 I am going to redraw her completely and post her here. Yes, everything was slightly squeezed, which I noticed when I mirrored her. I gave more space to the ear in the bottom drawing already. It was based on a really fast sketch.
      Warmer skin tone in dark areas - this is interesting to me, because I used to choose a colder tone for shaded areas as this was what I learned to see. (reflection of blue sky light). I will experiment with that. Making the eyes pop = 👌

      Thank you!

      @tombarrettillo Thank you so much, that is very helpful info! I will try the ppi adjustment and also try to make sure I don't get too caught up in things that won't show up in the final image.

      @Lee-White Thank you Lee. I realize the piece I was working on had did have slightly smaller dimensions than the others in the series so when scanned another larger piece it actually worked. I guess I will have to cut back the size of the paper for it to work.
      Thank you for taking the time to answer this question. Having the SVS teachers and community in these forums is a huge bonus for me. I love my subscription. Thanks again.
