    I’m a traditional artist, and I actually found this shading tutorial pretty interesting. I also now know that on digital art, shading is not automatic and in fact is as difficult as traditional art (I thought you could tell the program where the light source is and it’ll make the shadows automatically😅). So far, all my artworks don’t feature ambient lighting, and in fact my shading is very simple and beginner level. But now that I know about ambient lighting, I could attempt to use it and see how the result looks🤔. Anyways, thank you for the tutorial, I found it very helpful actually! Thank you very much🙏

      Yup, digital art takes skill and knowledge, computer programs are just another medium to learn, and even when they have tools created to save time this is true. 3D models can have a computer created light source that creates automatic shadows however knowing where to place them to give just enough realism, effective atmosphere, and readability as well as knowing how many to add would be learned knowledge. Actually, this tells me why they often look bleak without a background/setting around the model to bounce off of. (Not that I've even done 3D animation in years, just explaining in a bit more depth.) I don't even have a Wacom tablet, just a mouse rn, so I don't do a lot of digital art but when I do I prefer going without lines because it feels easier to correct the shape of the flat colors. I've been wanting to get better at shading so this tutorial was great for explaining how light works although I'd probably have to watch it a few more times to understand what he was saying about how he uses the layers. lol I'm still a beginner and learning Clip Studio Paint so my use of layers is very limited at the moment.

    • @hyzmarie
      @hyzmarie 16 дней назад +1

      Yep! 3d models do this, but 2d drawing programs require mostly the same skills as traditional art! There are some time-savers that pen-and-paper artists don’t have, but those often require a lot of learning to use properly as well :)

  • @alesieur
    @alesieur 6 месяцев назад +7

    I always hear artists say to use colors to shade, but you're the first clear explanation as to WHY we use colors to shade. This makes a lot of sense and helps me know what colors to use. Thank you!

  • @CashewChickenEnjoyer
    @CashewChickenEnjoyer 9 месяцев назад +72

    I don't do normal art- I'm not good at just taking something from my brain and putting it onto a blank screen. I paint miniatures though, and this was really helpful for doing so. There might be a slight difference from 2D to 3D, but this helped me work on my dogwater shading/skintone skills.

      That's because it's something you need to practice, you just need to keep doing it.

    One thing that always leaves me confused is hard and doft shadows. I've heard people say that hard shadows are for cast shadows, and soft ones are for form shadows. But then i see art that doesn't seem yo follow this.

    • @lileenleen
      @lileenleen 8 месяцев назад +7

      You can decide how you want to portray shadows. Some people want to simplify their shading and lighting so they don’t use both types.

    • @colbyboucher6391
      @colbyboucher6391 8 месяцев назад +3

      From a realism standpoint, cast shadows are mostly about the distance from the object casting the shadow to where the shadow lands. The further the object, the larger and blurrier the shadow. Really sharp cast shadows only happen an inch or so away from a surface, usually.

    I've been doing it wrong this whole time. I always used black as my default shading color and toning it down in the blending mode options. I know I shouldn't feel like a failure, but I always end up doing so. But I also need to work on my comic fast & get it done, and that's the most straightforward way for me.

    Rarely ever used shape guides, always skipped that step in drawinn books as kid.
    So don't really use muscle and bone guides the way you do, too use to, if i draw them, I can't erase them completely later.
    So i always just researched real photos and other art and mentally followed them.
