Hi Guys,

A few months back KissTheManiac posted his intention to put together some tutorials on how he goes about making his muscle girl art. How's this going by the way? I for one would love to learn more about the topics he mentioned (see below) and have had ideas of doing a similar thing myself in the past. I have also read quite a few posts where some of the other artists here talk a bit about their technique and list what tools they use to create their muscle girl art, etc. Some artists, like Dave Matthews and Kulli, have also written incredibly helpful tutorials on using Photoshop to color inked artwork and things like that.

I know there are a few artists out there that are curious as to how I accomplish certain things. So I've been tinkering around with the Idea of doing a tutorial for anybody interested on how my drawings go from idea to final product. With the upcoming drawing in the Regime of the Rogue line, I was thinking about putting together a set of tutorials that will go through certain topics.

The topics I'm sure I'm going to cover are going to be:
– Scanning work in/Image adjusting
– Inking in Adobe Illustrator
– Coloring in Corel Painter
– Hair in Photoshop

And some other topics that I could cover if people were interested in it:
– Sketching out the drawing/Anatomy tutorial
– Lineart preperation after Illustrator
– Image finalization/Special effects/Color adjustments

What I would like to see is a Wiki for drawing muscle girls which would let us collect all these little tidbits together and start building them into a really useful resource. It could become something like a continually evolving "How To Draw Muscle Girls" online instruction book. The better it gets, the more people would be encouraged to contribute.

I have to say that I'm really fond of this little artistic community and would like to see more collaborative projects take off, although I understand how precious everyone's time is. So I guess what I'm asking for at the moment is for people to post links to tutorials they know about or proposals for tutorials they want and to come up with suggestions on how they could be organized into a Wiki.
