anyone have some helpful tutorials for landscape digipainting?
i'll check google, youtube, and deviantart of course, but i figured the masters would have some good links

Youtube is probably your best bet. Just look at the way it's done with digital or traditional.

incredibly helpful

Checked out of curiosity. Thanks that link is awesome! I'll edit this post in a sec and paste all the links I've collected into my JSP notepad. Hope you find something useful! (:

Note: Some of these links are broken since they're old. It's a shame my favorite smudge, the Sub-Zero one is gone. ):

FONTS
http://www.namethatfont.net/free-font-resources/

Free Fonts:

DaFont.com is one of my favorite free font resources. The website is laid out very well and all of the font resources are very easy to download. The licenses for each font are clearly stated. The range of fonts is quite large and of a good quality.

UrbanFonts.com is a great place to get free fonts. Fonts are easily downloadable and the font choices are about the same as DaFont.com.

AcidFonts.com is a great font website. The thing I like the most about Acid Fonts is that they show layouts of the fonts on various backgrounds and they have a nice selection of freely available fonts.

AbstractFonts.com has a large selection of free fonts and is a pretty clean site. I have used abstract fonts numerous times.

FontYukle.com actually has the most free fonts that I have ever seen. I’m not sure how legitimate their dealings are, but they have way to many commercial fonts freely available for download. I put them later on the list because I don’t want to promote using commercial fonts without paying for them.

Themed Fonts

I am providing easy links to free font resources by theme, genre or style. I am putting a few down and will try to add genres as I think of them. Each link has the name of the website, but they will open up genre specific font lists. For example, the dafont link under western fonts will open up the western styled fonts category in dafont.

By Genre
FREE WESTERN FONTS: dafont, fonts101, fontSpace,pixellactic

FREE STENCIL FONTS: stencilrevolution, dafont, tripod, urbanfonts, 101freefonts

FREE GRUNGE FONTS: instantshift, cooltext, webdesignbooth, webdesignledger

FREE HANDWRITTEN FONTS: fontspace, fontsforpeas, dafont, tripwire, feulyourcreativity

FREE CUTE FONTS: fontspace, dolliecrave, neskaya

FREE WEDDING FONTS: bestdesignoptions, fontspace

By Holiday
FREE HALLOWEEN FONTS: acidfonts, dafont, fontsnthings, fontspace, halloweenfonts

FREE EASTER FONTS: fontspace, dafont, about.com

FREE CHRISTMAS FONTS: moorstation, theholidayspot, dafont, fontsandthings, fontspace
