Seeing you studying scott's stuff
@brianhermelijn Looks cool indeed. Although I've started setting up same thing in real life instead
@kennyt
Ye, just PS
@kennyt I separate different planes on layers with lasso and use bigger soft brush. Sometimes I add few clipping layers to add things. But in general it's just about taking time to render it carefully
@big-misch Thank you!
@Hantor I'm practicing figure drawing or anatomy almost every day. I will try to post some of it. And you do that on your side too, one bucket is not enough
Last update for this year
@big-misch Thanks! More to come for sure, though I'm very slow in creating my illustrations
@natallia I paint my illustrations from scratch, without 3D or photos, sometimes I help myself with reference, but I never copy it exactly, unless it's a study. I Used to paint in SAI but now I've switched to Photoshop (starting from Rei everything is in PS). As far as creating feel of volume, studying perspective and how light interacts with form really helps. Mannequin studies of a figure do help a lot too. It's also a very good Idea to think of the object you draw being volumetric. I hope it helps, I'm not very good at explaining.
Anyway here's a portrait study. I tried
thanks a lot! I'm not very good at using PS for now that's why i was wondering if this effect can be reached in PS from the picture which doesn't have volume itself. But if I understood you right, you paint every single detail, every shadow and all the effects you want, than take a photo and slightly modify in PS?
