There's a lot of 3D artist who share their shaders and stylizes models using blender for free. You don't really need to do anything other than tweaking here and there. I've been using blender from my backgrounds for years. There's channels like Tadayoshi CG, CG Dash, Tawan Sunflower etc who has tutorials and shaders on UA-cam.
Thank you for giving a proper tutorial on how to make backgrounds quickly without telling people to use an AI-generated image. At first I was a little worried that the video was going to end up that way, but your dedication to LEARNING art reminded me that you wouldn't rely on AI-generated images, much less tell others to rely on it. Your improvement is seriously incredible and you've inspired me to give backgrounds a proper shot!
i got pretty inspired, i should take more photographs irl and edit it and insert my character, luckily my dad has a big garden with grass and an apple tree, right now there are already apples growing, and when they turn a little red i should take some nice pictures of the tree when its sunny
The single most helpful art youtuber to exist. Ive seen alot of ppl copying your niche. Goes to show you created a new genre of learning that is both innovative and stylish, as well as incredibly helpful.
the editing on this was so phenomenal like always. i loved seeing the video elements just dropping to the bottom of the screen and the little blurbs and AGH tppo you've done it again
Amazing video especially since most artists shy away from backgrounds BUT I will add my two A-hole opinions. 1. Backgrounds using just photos with filters only work if your art is of a high skill. If your character art is not very skilled then the realistic backgrounds even if it's blurred, will emphasize low skill character art and will make everything look inconsistent and look off. 2. The shortcuts mentioned are best used alongside a strong art skills to hand draw or touch up the background with brushes so it blends with your art style. A lot of pro artists that have detailed backgrounds you can see even if they used some kind of 3d or photo base they did hand draw or lineart some parts of it themselves. But regardless, just know using a base for a background is very normalized and is not cheating :)
That's an insightful perspective! I actually had a drawing early on that didn't make it into the video because I struggled to blend it into the background. The drawing itself was pretty bad, and polishing the background couldn't save it. Maybe I should've added that as an example of what doesn't work with these background techniques! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Actually just like everything else you can do both. I'm surprised that this video didn't mention overpainting and bish bashing assets from various sources.
A lot of the hand drawn models you see, are actually taken from sites like acon3d. it's made by anime style graphic designers, for anime style graphic designers. I recommend downloading free models from acon, sketchup warehouse and sketchfab, importing them into sketchup/abler/blender/csp, then using whatever methods you like to touch up filters.
im amazed. as a graphic designer and a artist i am so amazed by every aspect of this video, thank u for this, this 12 minute video has done more for me than university (graphic design major) and im not even joking
your editing is always top tier, better than anything I've ever seen. really great to see a new upload from you!! btw, I always feel amateur compared to other artists because of the software I use, so it's really nice to see you validate ibispaint :D I'll definitely check out the other apps you mentioned too. thanks for the banger vid!
Your text said on your entry at 06:50 "omg... how did I end up here help"...I can answer that for you. Your art is servicable, not terrible but not groundbreaking, and you have a massive social media following. There's your answer. These days people with big followings WILL get the best opportunities from companies because it's easy, cheap advertising. (Cheap compared to traditional advertising, anyway.)
My favourite of the test backgrounds is the one done in Blender... Simple but gorgeous! And I'll definitely check out FIMO. Those filters simulating different camera film look really cool
A blessing from the Lord! Honestly, yours is literally the only channel I watch on immediate basis, whenever a new video is released. Each and every one of them left me with some new practical knowledge to be put into daily practice.
Your editing style is always so satisfying to watch! Everything moves so smoothly, as someone who's still learning at art and sucks at drawing background, these quick ways helps and inspire me!
My guy returned with a banger, always love your analysis to different artists' art styles, it actually gave insight to my tiny brain in approaching different techniques:D
Your editing style and art is so calming and you always manage to come at the perfect time LOLL I was just thinking about my background!! I'm definitely going to try them out and see what works for me, thank you so much!!
You might never found this comment but I still want to leave it here. I can never put it into words of how much I appreciate your videos and how grateful I am to have found your channel back then. With out of the world editing and awesome artworks created every step of the journey. The videos are very captivating even when not doing art studies, because they are telling a story. The first video I watched was your 7 day anatomy video. I had doubts about whether its actually possible before clicking into it. But after taking 7 days to watch it and following your footsteps, the impact was profound and how I do art has never been the same way ever since. What I want to say is that your videos and every one of your stories brought forth something unique for each viewer to discover. So glad that you are back and you should be listed as a national treasure 😭😭. Last but not least , thank you! (This comment is longer than all of your secret decorative text messges 😏) (P.S. At the end of the 7 day anatomy video, you also mentioned that you plan on studying how professional artists color their illustrations. Will you do a video on that? Just asking out of curiosity, not requesting 😉)
I’m glad that the videos were helpful to you! 🥹 Thanks for watching! Also, dang you read the forbidden texts hahahaha. I have some artists in mind that I want to study in the future, but not sure about a video specifically on coloring techniques… But now that you mentioned, it sounds like a fun concept to explore! 🤔
Nice video man! Very useful, nice bunch of techniques that i will be using when wanting to save time. Also, i'm surprised to see some brazilian bossa nova in the background music! Great video and editing again, Hugs from Brazil!!
I’m so happy you made this video because although I have years of drawing I still need to work more on backgrounds. This was really helpful and something I really needed! Thank you tppo!
If you use PS, I highly recommend playing around with the camera raw filters > details. It's one of the quickest ways to nudge photos or 3D renders towards looking 2D. After I'll usually use any combo of paint daubs from the filter gallery, layer modes, and adjustment layers. This was the method I used to create my VN backgrounds. Another important factor to using photos or 3D well in 2D drawing is lighting and size of the photo or render. The better my lighting in photos/3D renders, the less I found I needed to do to get them to where I wanted. For size, I tried to find photos/do 3D renders double the size of my canvas.
saw your Genshin art in person at the event! I already thought that it was great but it’s amazing to know that you’re constantly working to improve and already creating more with the new tools you’ve showcased here. I really like the final piece you did and this def helped make backgrounds way less intimidating c:
Just starting watching you, but man, your videos are so easy to follow and have amazing editing skills. Your humble way of explaining and showing your studies makes me have hope and energizes me. Keep doing what you're doing!
Really good video! A fun and less computer-intensive option is, hear me out, minecraft. With a few furniture mods (I reccomend Yuushya Townscape for the anime feel) and shaders (Complementary Reimagined is the best imo) you can get a pretty cool looking background, and with blur it's hard to even spot that is minecraft. Ironically enough, Genshin's own furniture system, the serenitea pot, is also really good for making backgrounds, I use it all the time (but I'm also addicted to the game so....)
traditional artist: 👁️👄👁️ me as both: 👁️👄👁️👍 (here's a tip of mine that sometimes works and sometimes don't!) When i got new idea i'll go to Pinterest first and looking for a background art that fit with my idea the most and draw my idea base on that background more so it fit in with the background quite perfectly when i add the background in (traditional is the same but i trace the background on the paper instead of add the background in like digital, work most of the time for me but i don't know about you and it took me quite much time try to looking for a background that fit in) That's my small personal tip thanks for reading this!
Ayo welcome back tppo :)), very nice seeing you use free features and whatnot to create bgs as alternatives to people who cant afford stuff like photoshop (
Unreal engine backgrounds look siickkk. I'm always drawing everything by hand and am intimidated by Blender, so going to look into alternatives! Great vid

HES BACK HES SO BACK AND HE COOKED AGAIN WITH THE EDITING
👨🍳
@@tppoart do you edit your own videos?
i got pretty inspired, i should take more photographs irl and edit it and insert my character, luckily my dad has a big garden with grass and an apple tree, right now there are already apples growing, and when they turn a little red i should take some nice pictures of the tree when its sunny
that's nice! I regret not taking more photos myself. I was struggling so much trying to find decent photos for this video
OMG ITS A TPPO VIDEO
For CSP Users, we do actually have a posterize filter under edit > tonal correction > posterization.
"So when do i start to draw the background?"
"That's the neat part, you don't!"
My jaw dropped when you said ue5 cause I only used it for my game assignment and never thought to use it for art😂 great vid btww!

hahahah thank you!
the editor cooked hard
I think he does the editing himself

HE'S BACK!!!!
With unbridled elation and ardent enthusiasm, I am most delighted to have beheld your video!
the video editing is so... smooth yet crunchy?????? it's perfect. it makes me happy and it keeps me invested, i LOVE it.
The editing style ALONE must have taken hours but it was worth it! amazing video as always.
Although these are really beneficial but my inner self is exclaiming that the hand drawn backgrounds are the best ones.
Actually just like everything else you can do both. I'm surprised that this video didn't mention overpainting and bish bashing assets from various sources.

As a student studying in broadcasting, photography and video editing, the editing in this video is killer af it got my head dead.
OH MY GOD HES BACK WE MISSED YOU KING!! 👑👑👑
your editing is something else. (in a really good way)
9:08 that lowkey looks cold for an animated wallpaper

im amazed. as a graphic designer and a artist i am so amazed by every aspect of this video, thank u for this, this 12 minute video has done more for me than university (graphic design major) and im not even joking
Hope the video was good reference! I was also a graphic design major, so things like layout, grids, and typography was a big part of the video!
your editing is always top tier, better than anything I've ever seen. really great to see a new upload from you!!
