    Patience during Rendering is the core of Splash art. I have looked at Bo Chen's work and it was insane how much time he spent on rendering.

    I think this is one of those important points to take in as a developing artist- offen we see the finished product and or a time lapse or speedpaint of someone’s work and think unconsciously that we should finish a piece in the time of a short video. For some yes they master it to where they can finish a piece in a day. But usually for stuff like this it could take weeks or more of constant development and redefining different spots. Like it takes time not only to get good but also to create in general. It takes great patience and endearment of the craft in itself.
    Matched with the algorithms and posting daily, its just really unrealistic to keep foot while keeping your mental and not getting burnt out or frustrated. Do continue practicing to get speed but not haste

      It's also fair to keep in mind that a lot of these splash artists never tried to play the algorithm or daily posting game. Of course that can feel mandatory for artists these days, and I think it's good to share work and post regularly, but getting hired at a company like Riot as an illustrator is a very different path than growing a social media following. If making splash art like these is your goal, then you should be prepared to step out of the internet chatter for months to years while you hone your craft, posting irregularly just to keep some momentum but not with the main priority of growing a following.

    A majority of them go from Greyscale to Color, and then a lot of lighting effects. This is a lot easier to manage and I think it'll help you out. I think studying HozureArt and AnninoSJ and their more casual pieces is a really good way of studying how Riot artists strategically place their values in pieces that they're getting out within a few hours or days, rather than the 4-5 weeks (sometimes 8-12 in an older interview when they were working on the Miss Fortune splash art reworks)

    Studying riot splasharts literally frame by frame for the most part (some speedpaints are on UA-cam) taught me one thing and that there isn’t a simple and quick cheese for it. These are most often are Chinese artists and if you ever came in contact with the aggressive art market of Chinese digital artists you know how long these people can dedicate to art daily. The lesson here is that you either have the patience and dedication to do it or don’t, there are minor tricks here and there but in the end what matters the most is how much you want to dedicate yourself to this.

    Is also worth noticing that there are also lots of people working on the design of the champions and giving feedback to the artist who does the splash, so I wouldn't be shock if there are probably about 20 people or more ending up working on making the splash arts, and they take their time, so is basically not posible to just do it in one hour or two.

    I think the best way to improve rendering is to build your art up slowly. It was mentioned in one of deiv calviz' courses. He would usually start with his base colours, apply all the lights and ao passes and then move on to the rendering phase. This just makes rendering more enjoyable and less complicated as most of the information you need is already there, you just refine it slowly.

    @Nekko_X 11 місяців тому +2

    Your video is very interesting, but I think there is a very big detail why it is too difficult for you to achieve that effect of the Riot artists, and I will try to explain it as easily as possible, and that is that you try to paint as if it were to paint an oil painting, and that is very difficult to achieve in reality and even digitally, I don't think that the Riot artists take too much time in their color process, they only have to take time, as you already mentioned, to create the composition, but basically the way they have to create their splasharts is to make the image in gray scale with all the details, then they only create and place a color gradient to each part such as a gradient to the skin, another to the clothes, another to the sky, another to the building that is seen behind, etc. That with base colors, then with more saturated colors they add the details that will add a lot of improvement to the image, they add lights, more marked ambient occlusion, and finally lights like reflections or where the lighting is too visible, or to the fire they add more brightness and saturation, etc. The difficult thing here for those who don't know is to create the illustration itself, especially when it comes to anatomy and even when the composition includes animals or complex perspectives. But the color process is really easy compared to the above mentioned. It is time-consuming, yes, but not as time-consuming as the time it took you, try doing it that way and you will see that it is really simple, with what I saw in your video, you know enough about anatomy and in general you know what you are doing.

    Im extremely curious as to how many layers to use. I want to learn more about rendering in this style and the way a lot of the masters seem to straight up paint on what amounts to one layer really surprises me. Maybe I’m wrong, but a lot of the times, it seems like they just paint everything and slowly clean up the art and don’t bother with too many layers.

    • @FrejDraws
      @FrejDraws  Рік тому +4

      I use very few layers. After sketching i merge my sketch layer with my base color layer, and then i have the background on another layer. Sometimes ill add a few layers after the painting is done for like glow effects or something like that.
      Riot artists however use a ton of layers because splash arts need to be perfect, so different elements all have their own layer and clipping masks.
      But unless youre doing professional art, i think its better to use fewer layers since youll be more efficient, simplify more, and theres more room for merging shapes/shadows in a painterly way.

    Would you take the job if a big company like riot or Ubisoft asked you to do splash arts?

    for someone that has used AI first and then learn how to draw later, don't stress too much about ai or some rando saying it looks AI since we (AI "artist") if they are good enough make pieces with no mistakes but will still look AI (adding to much detail, anatomy errors, shading error, rendering errors) you should be proud of being a real artist and be in full control of what you draw
