Nice Studies! Are you using photoshop for the scott robertson stuff?

Wow nice! Do you blend with pen pressure? I have difficulty even attempting to blend so this is really impressive.

Damn!!

Super badass studies dude!

@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 :sweat_smile:
@big-misch Thank you!

ohh man :blush: you are practicing all the good stuff!! Please do more proko stuff! as I'm working through his anatomy stuff myself :wink:

Good work on all those studies you've made.

And I love that last painting you've posted. I really like the colors and the lighting. It's very interesting.

Great hand studies!

I love that painting too! I need to try and use different light colors like you have here!

Excited to see more!

Could you tell me please what program you use to create such kind of arts. Do you create this “from nothing”, from 3D model or from photo? I just wonder how to get an effect of volume (I mean like sakura from naruto)

@big-misch Thanks! More to come for sure, though I'm very slow in creating my illustrations :sob:
@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. :sweat_smile:

Anyway here's a portrait study. I tried :weary:

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?

@natallia I paint, look at photo or at real life if I need, and then paint again, to put it simply. There isn't anything except painting in picture itself in other words. And also 99% of the time I paint on normal layers. So yeah it doesn't really require any special knowledge or software. You just grab a brush, pick a color and paint :smile:
Knowing PS is helpful, but it won't magically make paintings better.
