    This is like traditional art but without the rubby eraser thing that we all use

    As a traditional artist, I use my single layer very carefully.

    i work with around 1 layer pretty often, and this actually kinda reflects my process! i dont usually do lineart when i draw on one layer, but the way that you layed down the colors reminded me of my digital painting process

  • @harmonixdraws5298

    I was baffled to find out with digital art you have multiple layers. The first year of me using digital art I only ever did one layer just like traditional. To this day I do this unless it's a comission then I use like 3 layers..

    the fact that you managed to get your shading style in only one layer is honestly Impressive™ because my digital shading style will absolutely not work with only one layer lmao

    @angelic_writer 2 года назад +16

    I can't imagine doing the one layer challenge. Just today, I finished a drawing that was almost twenty layers. But hey, I should be used to it because I also do traditional art. The layers is oftentimes associated with many color tones you would use to make the drawing look less flat, traditional wise.

  • @artistlee7068
    @artistlee7068 2 года назад +6

    I swear, I use so many layers. My first sketch usually uses at least 4 layers because I like separating the face, hair, body, and clothes. Then I have my second sketch (which is usually 1 layer). Then I have 2 line art layers (I like placing eyes and eyebrows on their own layer for lineart), then I separate every different color in the flats stage. Then I add so many more for just shading. *I use so many layers*

    Digital art with one layer is more like painting traditional and is super funny considering you tend to work more with markers so you can’t even use your normal traditional techniques since the tools are so different, but you did an amazing job despite everything!

  • @kaoleylol5783
    @kaoleylol5783 2 года назад

    you should do a challenge of not zooming out so you can’t see the drawing in full (so you would have to cover that box in the top left corner) i love challenge videos like this and your art!❤️

For example, your video quality has gotten much better, as well as your art, and your voice! I love seeing people’s journeys on testosterone, and it really encourages me to start taking it myself. As always, love your videos, and I really like your art! ♥️

  • @larkscall8590
    @larkscall8590 2 года назад +5

    This turned out amazing!
    Personally I use a ridiculous amount of sketch layers and colour layers while usually only 2 line art layers (one for what I'm currently drawing and one to merge into below with the finished lines) I definitely would not be able to pull off my shading without multiply/add(glow) layers XD not sure if there'd be a way to even mimic it

    hey oliver I have a little tip (that would've been very useful for when you did draw this oops, but maybe you can still use this in the future) you can also change the style of your brushes so when you adjust the brushes in paint tool sai you see this thingy that says normal but you can click that and set it to multiply to you can have the multiply effect without a multiply layer
    well maybe for next time^^
    I also love nicolette and really enjoy this illustration you did such a good job

  • @TomoeKatsumi
    @TomoeKatsumi 2 года назад +1

    Honestly I have gone up to using 45 layers in one drawing before, not due to the amount of sketches or details but just because I lose layers often (Don't really take the time to name every single one of them) so I end up just making new ones all the time, I would completely suck at this challenge ;_; I really love this artwork, it looks beautiful and I hope you are doing well!

    for me it depends how many characters I'm drawing, I use 3 sketch layers 1 lineart layer (depending on what I draw sometimes 2) and dependering on the characters at least 40 to 80 color layers and a 1 layer for the eye whites and if there's anything extra then add more layers

    i went from using 50-60 layers per drawing to switchign to painting.
    honestly I like it a lot more now lol. I don't do it all on one layer though-- Ill merge my sketch layers, have color layers with clipping masks for shading, and then i'll merge it all to paint it together. It goes from really messy colored sketch to a finishing painting. It's really fun though, I always felt limited by lineart
