drawing timelapse :D

so incredible!! there’s a darker area between the highlight and the shadow on the hands that is really striking. is that a stylistic choice or an irl property of lighting? its gorgeous!

As I understand, its an exaggerated version of irl lighting! It's call the core shadow. When an object is turning away from light, there is a spot where light not longer directly hits the object but bounced light struggles to hit! It's one of my favorite things to draw.

makes so much sense laid out like that, thanks for enlightening me!

This is real artistic talent, ai could never hope to be this good

Your values layer looks fantastic :o How do u blend it in with the colour layer? Mine always end up looking muddy when i try to separate both :(

Every grey is on a different layer, so after I'm done shading, I alpha lock each layer and paint in the new colors. This allows me to get my shadow shapes right first, then test colors to see what works.

Ooooo i didn't think of splitting it that way! Thank you!!

THIS IS SICK HELLO YOUREAWESOME

This whole time I also thought they were models, they're so good 🤯 Amazing work!! 💗

i love ittt, questionnnnn, do you place a flat color shadow layer then erase it afterwards where light is? i really need to try that instead of drawing shadows on top of a light color

Yeah! I’ll put a clipping mask over my flats layer, then erase out where the light hits. It also forces you to resolve most parts of the drawing, where ask painting in shadows you can skip a lot. Sucks for doing simple stuff tho. Takes too long.

Wth man how

Oooo the box method is pretty neat

喔！他媽的超讚，要是我高中有看到這個就好了，畫圖清晰明瞭

You know what would be really sick?? Someone accusing you of ai

I like how the shoes look like little loaves of bread. 🍞👟

How do you properly add color over grays? When I try it, it just looks washed out. :(

Occlupanid!!

A certain subreddit would like your bread clip

rendering excelence aside im amazed by the lettering. any secrets to the neatness

I used the text tool for the text, then treated it as part of the sketch layer. Giving it line art and treating it as part of the the drawing helps it blend in more.

aaah i see

It seems like you found third dimension on paper :)

I defleeeee thought it was 3D

modern art masterpiece

That’s so cool! Thanks for sharing your process it was pretty informative

Are his shoes.. Loafers?

Perfect

Art

Shading first and then coloring, hmm what a strategy, if i can figure out how to cleanly change an entire color like that, (paint bucket is too messy and inconsistent) i might have to try that

this is very cool!

It's a drawing!? Wth

What software did you use to make this?

Clip studio

Now I'm imagining a war-torn breadtab warrior, with crease marks where he was bent too far 😭

This looks so amazing and you make it look effortless!
