    OMGGGG Finally a good explanation of digital glazing 😭😭😭😭 THANK YOUUUUUU for showing how it goes for procreate too! It’s been so hard trying to piece together info from photoshop tutorials but using procreate tools😢

    • @Nadiaxel
      @Nadiaxel  Рік тому +27

      aaaa you're welcome and thank you so much for watching! 😍While I was taking Erak Note's course with Procreate I realized how much Procreate needs to let us use temporary blending modes on brushes. I had to make duplicate sets of the brushset to be able to use Dodge and Burn for shadows and lights. I hope they'll make that feature soon TwT But overall I think I could have used just about any drawing app and still be able to follow along - even if there would be a few Photoshop-specific features I couldn't use.

    • @CozyToad
      @CozyToad Рік тому +34

      I've noticed wlop uses curves to color, but the concept is the same; a lot of artists learn this way because color is so complex that its often helpful to separate value at first and some people don't go back.

    Thank you! I was starting to get overwhelmed with the course,, I was following along and making a drawing that looked SO MUCH WORSE than his, and he was doing keyboard combos at like 120wpm while I was on a tablet But hearing you explain it in such simple terms has really grounded me enough to continue. The different layers for different body types is not intuitive for me, but I do think I am picking things up with the blending mode and how it can get that luminescent effect the drawings have

    2:40 is really interesting for me. I always found it much more intuitive and enjoyable to work in grayscale first and then color (as a beginner I obviously lacked some basics and the right knowledge as you have shown here). Some people approached me about it and told me the workflow was impossible because they believed I needed to know the shade of gray of the color I wanted in the final image, talked me out of it, and persuaded me to adopt their style/workflow (they were professional artists, so I believed them). I lost the fun of sharing my art with others and drawing in general. This part showed me that it doesn't matter how the goal is achieved as there is no one right way. So thank you so much for sharing

  • @AseGarcia
    @AseGarcia Рік тому +42

    Wow! I've been using a similar glazing method (yet more simplistic and rough) based on painting gray shadows and applying colour later using "Soft light" layers. But your tips are impressive, specially the mask layering aspect. I'll definitely apply some of those techniques into my workflow :D

    Thank you for the inspiration and for the new website. Art courses are truly op.
    I also love the use of layers that Eric does in the course. All those layers make sense to use photoshop to keep it all together.
    That's something that I've learned with procreate for the last year when it came to using your layers wisely and not waisting anything.
    I love the anatomy course and I like the explanation on the supper dupper basics. Just keeping all the shapes in mind and in mind for a 3d space is definitely all you need as you try to break down your anatomy.

    Thanks for this latest video sharing this workflow. I am getting back into art with an iPad and really looking to quicken/organize my flow. Did traditional pencil/inking back in highschool but sort of lost the time to do it for many years. I have been using the free trial of clip studio but have had issues purchasing a subscription from their site and tempted to try procreate instead. I have noticed you using both across videos. Which do you prefer for ipad art?

    • @Nadiaxel
      @Nadiaxel  Рік тому +1

      Super happy to hear you're getting back into art ^^ I must admit I'm more a Clip Studio Paint user - but I also use SO many of their tools like 3D-models, asset store, Webtoon features, etc. I used Procreate on my iPad for a few year before moving over to CSP and I still love to use Procreate once in a while. It has a much more user-friendly interface (especially for smaller monitors/screens) and it has evolved into such an amazing drawing app! I think it's about which features you would like to use and personal preference. Finding brushes and tutorials won't be a problem for either of them, I iamgine :3

    Going from grayscale to colour always looks muddy and desaturated. I have tried it myself.
    And i think it is not even about experience. Because even SamDoesArts and Marc Burnet both tried it. And even their painting look less vibrant than their usual ones.
    I think it is because you separate the processes, namely, the process of of selecting your values and then the process of colouring. And when you think of them individually that is how the painting comes out. It feels like there is something missing and i think it is that gap between grayscale and color.
    Damn, that was a lot.
    Btw, you video was great 🫡🫡

      Marco bucci has a great video on this topic.
      Imo, grayscale to color method is just like glazing technique in traditional art.
      It helps you establish initial colors with already somewhat good values. (Emphasis on the word "initial colors")
      But you can't just rely on it too much, same as the glazing technique, you have to work upon it. Look at Wlop, he uses grayscale to color method, his art is still striking, because he works upon it to give meaning to the color and harmonize with the pre existing values.
      Anyways, just wanted to say that, lol bye 🏃💨

    • @Mintflavoredgum
      @Mintflavoredgum Рік тому +6

      You can combat that by gradient mapping THEN glazing! It's one more step, but it adds vibrance to the grey tones quickly without changing value.

    i really want to be better at drawing but i don't know the best way. is drawing fan art an ok way or do i study? what the best way to draw when you are trying to learn to paper or digital?

    • @heyartmeupplease3401
      @heyartmeupplease3401 Рік тому +3

      Fanart is a great way to learn, I find. The passion you have for the character translates into wanting to finish it, and then you don't need to come up with an original character. I would recommend trying to stear clear of tracing and/or copying an artwork directly. When you're new and trying to learn, simply copying a drawing does little to understand proportions and anatomy.
      As for the traditional vs digital, I'd say it's very much up to the individual artist. I learned initially through traditional, but that's because there was no digital option when I was 14 😅 I guess I'd think digital could be harder for some, because they'd be learning not only how to draw, but also how to use an entire program. But, still, that's just me, you might learn just as quickly in digital. I love both mediums equally.
      Hope this answer helps. Good luck on your artistic journey

    Honestly I think Digital Glazing method, where you colorize greyscale looks kind of bland, particularly for skin tones. Maybe because it suffers from lack of tone variation. Sinix explained it better than me but, painting the skin directly IMO just ends up looking better and has way more flexibility -- albeit perhaps it's harder.
