I've been manipulating photos since I was young, but society made me think it was cheating and not real art. I felt like I had to draw everything from scratch... but I can see that couldn't be further from the truth. Nothing is truly original as we are always referencing something that already exists. Thank you so much for this vid. So beautiful!
Yes very true but when you hear leading concept artists talk about this issue the one thing that everyone says is that it's not how you make it, but it's about WHAT you make. BUT, you should never ignore sketching or painting , you should have all the tools to make your art the best it can be.
No artist in this day and age will ever be truly original, everyone pulls from something or someone even subconsciously- the only original artist is the universe and if we can accept that in return it will make us better artists because we won't fall to society's pressures. Also, I found the best way to improve my art was to draw from scratch with a refence, but when I needed to finish a commission or something for a deadline it was just easier to draw on top of my own photos or 3d models, it sped me up. I actually keep a cataloged of hands I've drawn over the years for commissions because they are so annoying to draw from scratch.
Same here! It felt like cheating because that is what people believe when manipulating photos to produce WHAT I want to paint…. Which made me stop doing that, but as of now, I’m back doing that because it would still be my skill on how to make my idea into a real and incredible painting, even if it is using a bunch of references.
This is so beautiful man! I can't express how i feel when i look at this. This one has to be my one of your favourite artworks! Had been waiting to see the process!
I've followed Benny and Phase Runner for years and somehow I'm just finding this guy. Painting with the photo manipulation is something I've never seen done like this. Absolutely amazing!
I like this! In my head, I am picturing this like a samurai coming home to his home village after fought in a war. Great work on the landscape photobash too, the mountain, the sea, and the village looks beautiful in the composition.
As an student in animation first, but Photoshop artist as a hobby, this really is inspiring stuff. Makes me want to experiment with some of your techniques and improve my own artwork. :)
A complete different art from beginning, amazing work :D And remember guys, you are not cheating, u are creating new from something that already exist, that js wonderful
it's amazing how you reply everyone..I follow you since long time and everytime i watch your videos it's actually making me feel bad about my own art still it's a pleasure to see your contents thank you for it.
Thank you very much! Please don't feel bad about your art. I've been there once as well. I am still learning every day. It takes time and consistency. What I am doing here is not so difficult; I am sure you'll be able to do it as well.
i feel like i'm absorbing so much useful information about how to sell an environment as "real." less detail further away, TONS of shadows, and a heavy dose of atmospheric mist!
That's a piece of master work you have done there. Your videos don't disappoint at all. Always experimenting with different genre's. Thank you for teaching us!!!
Before this one my favorite one was the pirate ship one and Infected, But this one and that Dragon Knight are now top of the list man. Another wonderful artwork. Your artworks are like time machines. gives Us a glimpse of the past.
The houses seemed a little "modern" at the start lol. Anyway, this looks great; the landscaping and background are awesome. It's like I'm in a game, especially with the music. I can already see the HUD and everything XD. Keep it up man, I can only wish to do this
The moment you started painting after setting up everything gave me feel like the kind i got when captain lifted thor's hammer... Made me sit up straight for the show ahed... Beautiful work👏👏👏
