First off, thank you so much for a great series! My question after watching parts 1 and 2 is this: how do you arrange or determine your initial palette? Do you start out as a traditional artist would with a selection of warm and cool colors to work from? Obviously once it's on the digital painting you can use the eyedropper tool to select and replicate already existing colors in the image. But it's that initial palette I'm curious about. Thanks.
The thing about contrast was really helpful for me. I always had a hard time making things shine like in so many pieces of nice artwork since all I could think of doing was making the area whiter gradually, which didn't help it pop much. Didn't really get what contrast was till now, thanks.
excellent. most digital tutorial artists are at a loss for words on how to explain their landscape methods, I suppose because so much is intuitive. this was helpful. working on what I hate first is good advice I would have overlooked.
Hey there, love the vid. Your speech about photoshop's shortcuts for flipping was an "aha!" moment for me. I have a naga razer mouse (it's a mouse with a numpad on the side) and I'm left handed, what this means is I have the tablet in the left and the mouse in my right. I used the naga's profiling to change all the buttons to correspond to photoshop's keys and wow, my workflow has improved and sped up quite a bit, and that was less than an hour ago. Now everything is just a thumb press away.
"You put a dark values, a light values on top lanes, and boom, you've got... snow" Made my day :D Feng Zhu is awesome artist, I was always serching around his works to inspire myself, but its not the same thing. He uses too many textures, to many hax, which are inappropriate for begginers... and here I found the best in my opinion tutorial about digital landscapes. Visual spoiler paired with very good and engaging narrative.
I thought it would of been pretty funny for you to say the lesson @ 5:24 was to not try anything new, as a joke of course. Then say do not be afraid to change things up. I really like how vibrant your blue is in the foreground shadows!
I really like this video! I always have trouble with loose backgrounds, I tend to want to blend too much. However, after seeing your technique, I feel that it is what I need to improve. If you don't mind, would it be possible for you to give me some suggestion on my paintings? I just recently graduated, and is looking to become better and hopefully get into the industry. I looked through many different tutorial and try to get the best out of them! And this video helped me a lot! Thank You!
i thought that you paint this fast and i was thinking :1. shit this guy is fucking fast. 2. shit this guy has a fucking expensive machine. 3. shit ... i guess he's THAT good. don't get me wrong , you are THAT good.
Ah yes, typo must mean I completly dont know what I'm watching and that I dont undestrand it. I bet you're right :d Dont teach father how to make kids :d
From chaos to order, I love it.
I'm glad you cleared up that point of how long this takes.
you sir are my hero... its the first video tut that made sense somehow, so thank you!
