    yes BUT make sure you don't have it like this all the time! for painting normally, please use linear curve or the inverse of this. having to press hard is gonna strain your wrist over time and that can cause really painful damage if you paint for long periods of time

    • @Thewackyartist1
      @Thewackyartist1  27 дней назад +532

      Thanks for pointing it out! The purpose of this brush is solely for applying thin coat over your paintings (glazing) as I mentioned in the video. I use different brushes for other parts of the artwork.

      @Thewackyartist1 yeah me too! i figured you'd do the same. just wanted to add that because i've downloaded brushes from other people a lot and they had insanly wrist-breaking settings like 80% of the time.
      i feel like people need to keep that in mind more

      Yes and no. For example in clip my brushes are set like in thr video, BUT in the general penpressure settings i have set it the inverse of it like you said. This makes the brush have the same quality but less pressure to do it. So i can get soft or hard edges easily without straining my hand. (basicly what i did was reduce my pressure levels to a 2010 drawing tablet i think)

    Glazing in traditional art is when artist paint value first then add color on top of it. You can mimic this technique by painting in tow value or black and white then add a layer with “color” blending mode

    • @jampoptart1180
      @jampoptart1180 9 дней назад +2

      Glazing refers to addition of thin, translucent layers of paint in general. Glazing from value only to add color is just one type of glaze :)

  • @maxthemad19
    @maxthemad19 25 дней назад +897

    don’t forget that the glaze is not for EVERY part of the drawing!! use it in moderation just like any other tool, because your art still needs the contrast of soft to hard edges to make sure nothing is muddied 🥰

    • @CHEYMIX

    • @maxthemad19
      @maxthemad19 24 дня назад +14

      @CHEYMIX are you asking if those are cases you’d use the glaze technique for ? bc if so, yes those are all valid situations to use it in :) especially for lighting, you’ll want shadows closer to the source to have a sharper, clearer edge whereas further from the light source you’d want a softer and more gradual falloff. same goes for the light itself; closer, more focused light (like a spotlight) should have a sharper, crisper boundary whereas softer, more diffuse lighting should be well… softer and more diffused lol

    Haha, true! I just found out this too lately.😂
    For Ibispaint user, this setting is on *constant opacity in the shape tab. Turn it off, so the brush didn't apply bold opacity all the time.
    Also you can turn off all of the opacity setting beside it for more finer brush strokes.

    I usually go with gaussian blur/ blur tool/ watercolor brush/ changing the layer's opacity and such to make things softer. This looks more efficient, I'll give it a try (unless I forget). Thank you.

  • @nycsim-r8t
    @nycsim-r8t 21 день назад +50

    Some explanation why this works. The actual physical pressure curve of any digital pen is not linear. It's curved with the greatest sensitivity in the low to mid pressure range. Changing the pressure curve in your software as mentioned in this video actually flattens the actual pressure curve to be linear. This is why you have greater control to glaze and paint.

  • @MaheerKibria
    @MaheerKibria 25 дней назад +49

    So on one hand I think it’s important to change the pressure curve to what feels right for the pen, but it’s not one size fits all and it doesn’t make glazing better or easier. All it does is change the pressure response. A lot of good artists like custom pressure curve since it expands the sensitivity at low pressures and most will not push so hard that they are using the upper end of the pressure the pen can read.. But it doesn’t make you good at glazing. It just gives you more control at lighter pressures. Brushes don’t just add color but also can blend and a bunch of other stuff. So not using layers and the correct brush will give you bad blending and yes the additional control at the light end of the pressure spectrum can hide that. But that’s all it does.

    • @ShoulderMonster
      @ShoulderMonster 23 дня назад +6

      Right? I don't see how this is any more special than setting a lower opacity of your airbrush/whatever other brush. I guess it's just one more way to do it.
      Or maybe I'm growing more and more jaded by Internet culture nowadays. People title everything as though it's the secret formula or something that will change your life, when it's usually just one more tip or something else I've seen before. I understand they're on the grind with creating content for the algorithm...

    This has the same energy as what brush do u use. Meticulous stuff like this doesnt improve ur fundamentals.

      Open ibisPaint and click "setting" button in the upper right corner. On the pop-up, go to Pressure Sensitivity to adjust your pen pressure. Hope that helped! ☺️

      Also, turn off the constant opacity on the shape tab. So it will not always applying bold line all the time.
