  • Опубліковано 30 тра 2016
  • In this tutorial, i am sharing some tips for drawing gold or metallic objects in general. I am drawing a golden beetle for the demo as i find it easy to understand the basics with that. I have used prismacolor pencils and faber castell polychromos pencils for the demo.
    Time taken for the drawing -- 1.5 hours.

    The thumbnail looks perfect where as the bigger and more detailed the image the flatter it became. Though gold presents hard edges within these color patches you still have a gradient produced by light and shades of a 3D form. You can improve this image by introducing a little light and shadow.

    Until the baby oil blending I thought 'Yeah. Right. Ha. Ha.'
    But all of a sudden - that thing started shining, and when you finally added the shadows I had to pick up by lower jaw from the floor. Wow! This is amazing!

      amelia garner, self righteous wanna be critics say things like this when they can't even draw a stick figure. Always best to leave positive comments than negative. I totally agree with you. This was a great tutorial and it is very helpful. Not flat at all. The person that said that probably has flat eyes.

    This is one incredible drawing!! You should be proud! The beetle really does just come to life in front of your eyes and quickly looks 3D.
    I know I will most likely get every person and their mother biting my ear off for having an opinion. It is meant as constructive criticism and in NO way, shape or form am I trying to be mean, nasty, stuck up or any other insult people can come up with.
    Just 1 tiny little detail I felt let down the picture and that was the shadowing. Done in the right places however, it wasn’t blended in with pencil blend, or in your case, baby oil. Just looked a tiny bit strange having this incredibly realistic looking gold beetle and a grainy shadow.
    Keep up the absolute amazing work!! Love it! 💜

    Thank you for your great tutorial on drawing metallic items with colored pencils. I did the drawing and it turned out beautifully considering it is only the 4th drawing I've done with colored pencils in about 40 years. I've watched a number of artists use the Prismacolor pencils but so far you are still my go-to guy for fully understanding the best ways to use the pencils to get the best results. It took me a couple of episodes, to understand what you were saying, but I was able to quickly get used to your accent by watching the closed captioning while listening to you. Now I don't need the closed captioning and I am going through as many of your tutorials as I can each day. I feel like I am once again in art school and I'm having a great time learning all the new techniques and materials that have been developed in the last couple of decades. Thanks again for taking the time to make these tutorials.

    It's a really good tip to pick colors before starting, with the help of photoshop. Could you please make a quick-tip-video were you show it on an example. Maybe the Skull. I have never used such a program for assistance and it would be really interessting for me as a beginner. Especially which colors you pick. Because I saw so many colors on the skull pic and you've choosen only a few. It's difficult for me and I would be very thankful to see this in another video. Thank you!

    @ELFASHIONISTA 5 років тому

    THE IMPORTANCE OF THE LIGHT SOURCE IS CRUCIAL. Guys, that will determine 80% of the good result. Once you determine where the light source is coming, that's the area where the maximum hit of light will be so that area will be almost white, from there down is that you are working your other color, REMEMBER WHEN YOU ARE PAINTING METALS, GLASS OR HIGHLY REFLECTIVE OBJECTS, YOU ARE PAINTING REFLECTIONS AND LIGHT STROKES, NOT REALLY PIGMENT.

    And how do you squeeze that oil from the baby?.....
    Nice work!
    Do the instructions for those pencils tell us to use the oils or water for blending, or is it a method developed by the artists?
    THANKS

    • @crystalfranklin2583
      @crystalfranklin2583 6 років тому +1

      Al Catraz To the best of my knowledge, most colored pencil sets (the ones I own anyway) don't come with instructions. I think the reason for this is likely because the best and easiest way to learn how each pencil works is through practical application and firsthand experience. Even pencils within the same set are not created equally. Some have more or less binders (wax or oil) and some have more or less pigment (color) than others. Therefore, some lay down smoothly and some more scratchy.
      My best piece of advice is just to try them and try different methods and techniques, vary pressure and grip. Try holding the pencil at different angles and closer or further away from the tip. Get to know each pencil literally.

    • @crystalfranklin2583
      @crystalfranklin2583 6 років тому +1

      Al Catraz Also, there are many different blending tools, methods and mediums. Which you choose to use depend largely on personal preference. Ease of use, safety and affordability are also factors for most people. I've even seen people use rum or tequila or vodka to blend. Some use Vaseline, some use odorless mineral spirits, turpenoid, gamsol, rubbing alcohol (isopropyl or ethyl). I've seen people use Olive oil, coconut oil, vegetable or just about any kind of oil they happen to have on hand, except motor oil lol. There are colorless blending pencils (usually made of wax without pigment), colorless blender markers (alcohol-based). I haven't really seen water uses for blending, probably mainly because it can damage the paper, but any wet media can do that, especially if you use an excessive amount, which is why I always recommend wiping off excess using a paper towel or even swiping your paintbrush, q-tip or tortillion across some blank scrap paper. And there again, there are many different tools you can use to apply different blending methods.
