Hey Everyone! Thank you so much for subscribing and liking the content on this channel! Also big thanks to the Patreon subscribers! And I hope to see you all in the New Year and the new videos! As usual, the free brush pack is in the description!
I keep coming back to these videos as I practice composition. Really inspired by how immersive these environments feel with minimal paint strokes. Def have much to learn from that decisive restraint :) Thank you!
I don't even sketch - or watch videos like this but for some reason the UA-cam Algorithms suggested this video and O found it so fun and soothing to watch- great music!!
Hey Cami, glad to see you again! Yeah, I've been trying for quite some time to have a schedule and post weekly, this would definitely help everyone anticipate my uploads better. But it proved to be a bit harder then I thought, considering my work schedule. Hopefully will manage soon to sort things out and upload more! Thank you and Happy New Year!
I have a question, do the vast majority of layers have some mode? Or are they just in normal mode? I find it difficult to use layers, so what do you recommend when it comes to an environment? Should I use many layers or few?
Hey, thanks for dropping by! The majority of layers are in normal mode, I try to paint directly with color. Sometimes if you want to have a bright light or some vfx or maybe show a bright spot of light on the ground you can use liniar dodge (add) layer. If you plan to adjust the colors later, or do a lot of changes, the more layers you have the easier.
Amazing! really helpful, learnt lot of things. I also wanted to ask, i installed your brushes, but they dont seem to react to my pen tilt. How can i make them tilt the same way?
Check out photobashing by this guy. Really helpful to understand how you can use multiple pictures and reference photos to create your own environment. ua-cam.com/video/QMrlEWWtK9A/v-deo.html
Hey C.B. Thanks for watching! Yes it is a really good habit to gather at least a few refs before starting to work. They can be quite different from the final result or composition, but could help with establishing the lighting, some colour refs, materials. Sometimes people might go overboard with the amount of refs, so try not to gather too many, get a few and one image as the main reference and it should work great.
You said it was important to use references, but I don’t know where to find references that are actually GOOD if that makes sense? By the way that’s amazing artwork, I want to draw like that someday
Hey Mariam! Thank you, glad you like it! I totally get you, internet is full with images and even simple photos are edited often times with weird hdr colors, and filters. I think I sometimes find images on flickr posted by users who travel a lot, some are really nice. Basically you should judge them the same way as you would a painting, look if everything is readable, find clear shapes and unedited values. I guess it also comes down to search terms too.
Why is it I feel more comfortable painting with non-screen tablet than screen-tablet. It does not make any sense because in real life, we also watch paper when we draw, we don't look at paper using 3rd party hardware ... @Victor Staris what do you think about it ?
Hey greed! Thanks for watching, yeah I totally get you. I started to learn digital painting without any traditional background, and for the longest time I was using a basic non screen tablet Wacom intuos 4. It is really more comfortable for some tasks especially photobashing when you don’t really need to draw accurate lines. I switched to Cintique because I wanted to improve my line drawing. But I still don’t like that I see my hand covering the screen, and that it has to move so much, in comparison to a simple tablet. So yeah it’s not strange at all that you prefer non screen tablet, the cintique really only benefits me if I want to draw accurate lines and gestures, for characters for example. Other then that the standard Wacom intuos works equally well.
As much as I appreciate your art and skill, this was NOT a tutorial. -your description/instruction did not match what was occurring on screen -your instruction was from such a high top-down level as to be virtually philosophical rather than practical -the painting was clearly time-lapsed. If it took 30 minutes to create, what are the odds you can describe the process in 10 minutes? I would LOVE to watch an actual tutorial where you take the time to actually describe the process.

Hi, how come the box you opened at 7.38 for Pin light.
Can you help about the thumbnail process...from imagination or either the use of reference
this looks awesome, love the shapes and colors! Do you have real time recordings of your work?
I have a question, do the vast majority of layers have some mode? Or are they just in normal mode? I find it difficult to use layers, so what do you recommend when it comes to an environment? Should I use many layers or few?

Do I have learn 3D as well to get a job in concept art ?
What do I need to learn in concept art ? Environment painting or more ?
Amazing! really helpful, learnt lot of things. I also wanted to ask, i installed your brushes, but they dont seem to react to my pen tilt. How can i make them tilt the same way?
SUBBED!

Hey Victor, hi! I just wanted to ask how'd you find perfect reference images for your projects. I can't find images like you make

Which app?

спасибо большое!!!
Do you use reference photos to help you during your work? I love your digital paintings!!!!!
