And I wasn’t really paying attention to brushes. Like I know the eyes are not right and there are problems and I did redo them a few times, but not to the point that they were completely better. But I found it harder for me to correct mistakes then on paper. It’s great, I have huge hopes that it will help me be a better artist.īut I don’t have a scanner, so egotistically I tried to do this last one digitally instead on paper so I can post it when done. And thus you can see what’s there hopefully and not a symbol of it from your own symbol language. It is supposed to trick the brain to go into the desired right brain mode. I do now just want to say, I have been going through this art book by Betty Edwards about using the right brain to draw, and then 100 pages in realized I needed a charcoal stick and there were none in the stores so i ordered it and it said it would take 5 whole days! Anyways, so yesterday i did an exercise from earlier in the book which is this, where I drew this with the reference upside down. I have gimp and I noticed in photoshop you can edit a lot of things abotu the brush you seem unable to here.Īs for this last picture. I do understand about the concept of hard brushes and soft but sometimes I have trouble with brushes. Ok so “facing the light is lighterr,” oh this is like if you have a log, and you have the light above and behind it is lighter where we are directly facing it and this light curves around to create depth? Light direction + intensity + local value = value… uh oh breaking out the math jk. So for locking transparency you used the lasso for a branch then color it in and then locked transparency?
#SILHOUETTE ART CTRL PAINT HOW TO#
I had never before heard of locking transparency just looked it up and figured out how to do it, that’s a neat trick! To be honest it is a little confusing though. Just was looking at the link you sent, that looks very interesting, thank you for sharing it It is also annoying that sometimes Gimp loses info about pressure sensitivity.īut I do like that I can paint but that I can also use filters and photo manipulations and color grading and all that. But yes, i gotta try Krita, i keep hearing Gimp is awkward for painting in, but I haven’t tried Krita yet. Though often it is also about emphasizing certain aspects for emotional reasons, which isn’t so much technical, but understanding emotions I think. Yes, I am surprised with how technical art is, it’s all about duplicating the real word. But still getting that experience with it always helps.Īlso just looking at so much of people’s art everyday, I feel like I am getting a good understanding of how color works. Though it is not as good as active studying.
but moving things in 3d you are constantly turning the object/s around and yet the perspective is always right, so I think that doing 3d is probably really useful for perspective. I especially feel like I get a natural grasp of perspective now without having learned it like others have, okay I am just guessing I have I don’t know. Yes I think doing 3d has helped me with 2d. Yes, okay i keep hearing to try Krita, I will try it. Maybe you might want to try it if haven’t already, and good luck, regardless of the tools you use. I’ve had my problems with Krita but still prefer that whenever there’s brush work to be done more than image manipulation.
I’m not a big fan of using Gimp for painting. Also teaches that art is surprisingly technical, and that the terminology has more scientific background than what the so called artist pulls out their handbag, even if it’s a guy. But by doing that, actually learn a lot about drawing and painting which doesn’t substitute for practicing it, but still a lot more one might assume. Very challenging, but you’re not crazy Many say they started with 3D because they can’t draw or paint. In 3D we get the perspective for free, but there is a lot of shared knowledge and terminology: forms, proportions, material properties, light behaviour (direct/reflected light from different surfaces, shadow types), effects like aerial perspective and fresnel, anatomy. There is a lot of overlap between 3D, drawing, painting, and photography. It is intimidatingly difficult to control the medium, but not that big of a leap from 3D. I am learning both 3d and traditional art right now, which is beyond intimidating!! And I must be out of my mind.
