Thanks to you, I'm starting to understand better how to draw accurately

Merci infiniment pour cette vidéo qui, en 20 minutes, apporte une TONNE de savoir et d'astuces ! Merci vraiment pour tous ces partages.

Time to try the new blender modes. Let's gooo! Also I really like your approach, using just a few layers and focusing on color relativity. The result is very natural!

Love your artwork and explanation of how you got the effect

I like the examples to explain blending modes like screen is for sky light. Often I will scroll the modes to see what looks best

Thank you so much David for your videos. I'm learning so much every time I watch your good explanations. I'm always struggling with naming my characters, too. 🙈 I sit there looking at them (sometimes a long time) and listen and ask and listen and talk to them and listen.... a bit weird I guess, but it's ok, that's me. 😅 The first name that come in looking at your character here was: Malina.

Super vidéo, merci beaucoup ! Elle m'aurait été très utile en décembre dernier, quand je m'arrachais les cheveux sur une commande... J'ai carrément paniqué car c'était la 1ère fois que j'utilisais cette technique (quelle idée !), et je n'arrivais pas à me dépatouiller avec le mode "color". J'ai fini par m'en sortir avec le mode "overlay", en remettant des couches en mode "normal" pour corriger, bref, une vraie prise de tête ! Le rendu final était ok, mais avec tes conseils j'aurais pu arriver à mieux sans avoir envie de bouffer mon stylet ! Je retiens pour la prochaine fois :)

Thank you for making another helpful video. I'm sure I'll return to this one many times, just like all the other David Revoy videos in my favourites list.

Thank you Sooz!

So grayscale, duplicate. Change duplicated layer blending mode to colour, give some undertone with colour filter (ctrl + B). Then go to the grayscale underneath and do level adjustment (ctrl + L), you can leave it as a mask so it's non-destructive. Then paint colorus on the colour layer. Do you have some rules of thumb for how saturated or desatured colours you use on the colour layer?

@DavidRevoy

3 ай бұрын

Yes! About the saturation, I still don't have a super logic way to handle it. I just observed it's good to not saturate much because it's easy to saturate later (but desaturating a piece that screams saturation everywhere is more difficult). So, I build the saturation slowly.

Great Video!!! I'm working on both debian and Ubuntu and I love Krita, Blender and Darktable!!

Another great tutorial David! What do you think about gradient maps for coloring?

@DavidRevoy

3 ай бұрын

Gradient maps are great! But they also have a danger: you can map arbitraly gradients to non-corresponding values (eg. say a blue-to-white on a black and white image). As you saw in my usage, I'm try to preserve my greyscale values a lot − I even don't trust the way Color Balance filter affect the values (that's why I'm using it on a duplicate with a "Color" blending mode, so I'm sure it's affecting only Y part of HSY).

Hello David, amazing artwork as always ^^ I am a bit confused regarding the silhouette stage and the lambert lighting stage. In the silhouette stage are you considering a light source?

@DavidRevoy

Ай бұрын

Hey, yes, because I have many automatism that sync at the same time (at silhouette I also take care of anatomy, perspective and design/volumes). But the subtle light I do is not really a directional one, it's a global one very soft and diffuse. It's not thought as a direction yet, or a particular point in space. It's more imanent; by shaping slight variation of grayscale at this step it greats this ambient dim soft light.

Thank you, do you have tips on how to make stylistic characters?

@DavidRevoy

3 ай бұрын

Hey, I think a key is to do classical study and anatomy (realistic) to be after in real control of what you stylise and for what reason later. So many things can be stylised: shapes, shading, anatomy, rendering, visible brush strokes...etc... I remember when I was younger I was worrying that studying realism would erase my style. Don't worry about it: from my own (biased) experience, style is like the color of your hair: it's difficult to change it or decide about it. Even you temporary tint it, it will always grow back later with the same good old tonality. Have fun in your experiementations!

I want to paint characters in a similar style, but how can I add anatomical details like this ? Would you recommend doing that with lines after figuring out the silhouette ?

@DavidRevoy

3 ай бұрын

In general, if you go without reference for the anatomical detail, it will require you to have studied and memorized them. That's something I did (training on my sketchbook), no perfect, but I start to have a good library of volumes in mind. If you are learning them, the best is to open a reference on the side (it can be a body standing, or a character, even with another view angle) and try to read the volume, and them reconstruct it with your view angle. It's a game of sculpting and understanding/knowing the shapes.

Hi David! I’ve tried this technique and it was a lot of fun but I had a question: the eyes of my character seem too dark in the whites, how can I bring them up aside from painting over them?

@DavidRevoy

2 ай бұрын

Thanks! In this case, I think a little glazing with white and "Overlay" blending mode can solve the issue. But probably with a brush having a gentle opacity or they'll quickly look like a light source :)

Slt ! Très cool ton perso ! Je vois que tu utilises Fedora, je l'ai installé en dual, mais avec KDE Plasma et je n'arrive pas à retrouver la même sensation de dessin que sous windows. Quand je déplace le stylet, j'ai comme une sorte d'inertie avec le curseur, très léger, mais quand même présent, j'ai désactivé l'accélération de la souris, c'est un peu mieux, mais pas non plus parfait.

Avec Fedora qui va devenir Wayland seulement à la F40, je vais déménager.

Le filtre couleur n'influe que sur la teinte, mais pas la valeur. Donc normalement, tu devrais avoir la même teinte mais dans un camaïeu en fonction du niveau de gris qui est en dessous. Pour certains jaunes et oranges, ça peut développer toute la palette des brun/marrons/ocre.

I used the "color" method, but the colors do not respect the chosen color. they look washed out. also if I choose a dark color, for example: "dark brown" the color is pale, almost grey. I do not understand.

@DavidRevoy

6 күн бұрын

Hi, the "color" blending mode influencate only on the tint; the darkness you select is not taken into account: it's the gray color underneath that will be 'the value' of the color. A brown can look like a peach color if the gray color is too bright. A orange can look like a brown if the gray is too dark. You need more work in the variation of gray and their values before coloring.

Hey, yes it's a possible effect if the values of grayscale underneath are or grayish (then it all look grays and saturation pops weirdly) or if the values are too contrasted (lot of burnt black and over exposed white). It takes a bit of practise to aim at a grayscale that has good values for being recolored. It worth the training :)
