50 Things Challenge
-
How long did it take you to put together the first image you posted?
-
@Eric-Castleman It is difficult for me to count together time used for an image - I use lots of scrap time for planning. I did some thumbnails on the plane to NY - probably for about one hour. From thumbnails to first pass and character design it was around 3 hours. Final line took two "short studio sessions" (I have two long ones of 10 hours and five or six short ones of about 2-3 hours during a normal week). So about 10 hours in total for the final line?

@smceccarelli I believe you can transfer psd files from procreate to photo shop but not the other way around. Fantastic work!

@smceccarelli
Love it! -
@smceccarelli This is looking great! It's exactly what I had in mind and so far the best example of how to do this assignment from someone at SVS! I just wanted to make sure that everyone knows I just launched the critiques for #draw50things class here at SVS. Doesn't look like you need it though

@admin Thank you Will! Your feedback means the world to me - very much appreciate your words! I did not have time to get to color yet, but definitely plan to finish this. And let me say that without your video I would not have tackled something like this nor would I have thought that it can be done so "easily" - it was invaluable guidance!
-
@smceccarelli Wow! That's fantastic. Can't wait to see what you do next.
-
It looks fantastic, if it was a computer game environment I'd have to look at everything in this room and try to pick them up
-
I love it. One of the things I love most about it beyond the execution and style is it is something I would have never thought of!
Also procreate updated you can go back to photoshop btw. So both ways with a psd with layers intact. I finally have a process down which is odd I sketch in procreate, take to photoshop or mangastudio to paint then back to procreate to finalized. Backwards I know.
-
@Stephanie-Hider Not that backward. I actually love ProCreate brushes better than Photoshop brushes. I even asked the ProCreate service center if there is a way to export their brushes into photoshop, but there isn't (the brush engines are different). I was trying to find out why I like them so much, and I believe it is the pressure-sensitivity algorithm - it seems closer to how a natural brush or pencil behaves. Recently, I have been playing with ClipStudioPaint, and I think the way brushes behave in that software is much closer to ProCreate - very very nice. I can see why people prefer CSP for sketching and inking (I do not think the painting flexibility is close to Photoshop, though I may be wrong)...
But yes...abundance problems!Anyway, I need to get going with color on this one. I will start today!
-
I really really love how CSP paints. I wish Kyle would do brushes for it but I have a ton so I shouldnt complain and only use 3 or 4 of them on a regular basis. I literally cut my painting time in half if not more painting in CSP. So glad to see others like it too
-
So, I did try out the extreme background/foreground separation - I do like it. This piece was such an experiment on so many levels that I feel confused about it being successful or not. But I am quite proud of it at this moment...
-
@smceccarelli Oh, you were MOST DEFINITELY successful! This is so very awesome in so many ways. I could look at it for hours!
-
It looks amazing @smceccarelli - congratulations on a wonderful piece! It works on so many levels - colour, value, composition - and it's really interesting to look at with all the details. A really great way to fulfil the challenge
-
This looks amazing. I love it.
-
Uber gnarly! Love it!
