How to paint black, curly fur in acrylics | Must have blending tools!

In this tutorial I'll show how to paint black, curly fur in acrylics. I'll also show how to blend the acrylic paint using my must have tools and why I think these make such a difference to painting the soft aspect of curly fur. This fur texture relies on the right layering process. We need to paint the correct portions of fur first otherwise the fur will look flat and wiry. Something we really want to avoid. I'll explain why these tools and brushes work so well for painting realism like this and speak through top tips and techniques that can be transferred to painting any other curly fur in acrylics.
