The moment before WIP
-
@Kevin-Longueil Oooh I like the lighting from the sun.
-
@Braden-Hallett Love the texture that's something I was always trying to get in my color work and don't think I ever quite got there. Are you using Painter? I was always having color management problems with it when going back and forth to Photoshop and then I hated that I couldn't have another window open on my second monitor. But I did love how the brushes worked. Are you using the newest version of the software? Wondering if they've gotten any better?
-
@Kevin-Longueil Oh wow that's awesome! I like the strong light on the diving board and such. In this particular case, I'm going to keep my lighting close to as is, though. The reason being that I'm trying to get in the habit of figuring out my lighting in the thumb and comp stage, and then sticking to it. That being said, if I redo the piece (which I might
) I'll totally go your route! -
@evilrobot I'm using the newest version of painter, yes. What do mean by colour management issues?
As far as I know you still can't have another window open on a second monitor
-
@Braden-Hallett seemed like when I opened the file in Photoshop (even if I saved the color profile with the document in Painter) The image would look completely different in Photoshop than in Painter. I have painter 2015 still new in the box I was never able to get it to work right. (It might have been that Windows 2010 had some issues messing the profiles up as well) But the no dual monitor thing pretty much kills it for me. I got to have that.
-
@evilrobot painter uses some different layer types that don't necessarily mesh with photoshop. However, photoshop will do its best to interpret those layers (It'll turn a 'colourize' to 'colour' and a few other just to 'multiply') so sometimes if you import a layered file created in painter into photoshop things can get wacky.
-
@Braden-Hallett Actually went ahead and upgraded to 2019 version last night. Now just have to figure out a work flow using it. Hard to mesh painted colors with line work for me you seemed to have figured it out with yours.
-
@evilrobot If you ever want brushes or workspaces, let me know
There are all sorts of little magic to sort of make painter behave like photoshop.Have you joined the discord channel for the arts? There's a few SVS students on there and it makes it easy to chat.
-
@Braden-Hallett No what's the discord channel for the arts? lol...And yes, I'd love any help you can offer on Painter.
-
@Braden-Hallett Love it! I get that "pit in my stomach" feeling just looking at him. Awesome perspective!

@evilrobot Discord is a voice/text chatting app mostly used by gamers. @JerrySketchyArt kindly allowed us to use the 'discord for the arts' channel for our environment run through, and we use the voice channel to chat sometimes. It's an easier way to chat in person than the forums.
If you feel like it, download discord and I'll shoot you a link. It's all free
If not, that's cool, and you can ask me painter related questions anytime you like anyhoo!
-
@shinjifujioka Thank you
! I remember watching some of your work being critiqued on the old third Thursdays (or even before that). I learned a lot -
@Braden-Hallett Yeah, I enjoyed those critiques! I'm glad they're planning on bringing that back.
-
Love it! It’s coming along fabulously. No real feedback Other than it looks awesome!
-
@Whitney-Simms Thank you
-
@Braden-Hallett very interesting that you are sticking with a process. I often got sidetracked and ended up taking a lot more time on a piece. I enjoyed seeing your monthly contest process. Learned a lot. Thanks for sharing.
-
@xin-li You're welcome! I get more from sharing and feedback than I think others do
And yeah, I'm really tryin' to stick to a process and only alter it slightly a little bit at a time. It seems to help, especially when it comes to getting all the puzzle pieces on the page if you get hat I mean.

@Braden-Hallett said in The moment before WIP:
I get more from sharing and feedback than I think others do
and by that I mean, by sharing, I'm getting more out of the deal as the sharer than the sharee's.
I have NO idea if that made sense or not :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:
-
@Braden-Hallett It's been great to watch this develop and get hints at what is your process. I keep here the SVS guys mention this-and I submitted a suggestion that they devote an upcoming podcast to this-Jake said they'd take it on.
If you care to describe yours, I'd appreciate it.
-
@Susan-Marks Thanks
It's been great to work through these things and get feedback on my process.When you say 'care to describe yours' do you mean my process?
