>>3532273Yeah, I admit I was trying to jump into it. I really don't know how to build up my drawing, when it comes to rendering. You want manga/hard line style? no problem..
but this takes a hell of a different mind set, I'll work on it using all your advice. thanks guys.
>>3532315Holy shit, thank you.
>>3532356A grid? ah damn! Didn't think to. That's something my dad always does haha.
No no that makes sense, yeah I was just jumping in. I thought it was that simple, like you just blot down some darks, then start shading over it with lighter shades. I guess it's more than that.
So just go with a round brush, full opacity?
>>3532434Huh? No, I posted that image not him.
I'm trying to learn how to be more painterly and not rely on outlines. Turns out I'm gonna have to restudy lighting, form, and values... shit.
If you have any advice at all on how to render/paint/painterly in digital, I'd be grateful.
I am struggling to understand how to lay down a foundation for the painting, and then work my way up. See I thought It's just stroking in directions along the planes of the face using certain shades, and blending with a texture brush afterwards or something?
I'm trying to achieve the skill of
>>3522933The hair looks easy, a comb or hair texture brush no problem. Then go over that with a white on pressure-opacity.
But the face... shit. I can't understand it yet.
