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
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
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 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.
bro ive been trying for so long to find out how and what people do this thank you i use ibs and thought people were using like some secret app for this
@@AnimeGirlGaming420 lol, I know how it feels. I've also struggled for so long before. I think many people just don't want to tell it bcause after all the small work they did to found these settings.
after all these years, the truth 😭i can't even remember all these brush packs i got the artists recommended or made themselves and i was so mad none of them worked as in the preview by the artists.
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.
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.
YESSSS I'VE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THIS EFFECT FOR FOREVER AND WHENEVER I ASK MY ART FRIENDS THEY'RE LIKE "oh you just draw it like that" THIS IS SO MUCH MORE HELPFUL THANK YOUUUUU
Thanks for commenting and yes, that’s true but watercolors usually have some texture that come with it. This allows you to turn any brush into one that suits you.
@@Thewackyartist1 Absolutely it's hard to find non-textured brushes that do this. Programs that have the ability to make your own brushes are amazing for this reason, but they usually skimp out on other features as a consequence.
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.
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...
Oh my god I use clip studio and since it was already open I chose a random brush and tried this and IT LOOKS SO PROFESSIONAL??!! they gotta be gatekeeping so hard bc HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS?
Definitely useful - but you can also just use a lower opacity and colour co trip to mix a better gradient where your two colours collide . As others have said leaving it like this permanently can cause issues
This makes life so much easier. I was using the blending tool and going in on every hard edge at a time blending until smooth. And it took me an annoyingly long amount of time.
I always thought it was just a combination of having opacity and flow set to pen pressure. In all my years of digital painting I never thought to adjust the curve so much!
.. i'm still confused on what glazing is. how does it help painting look professional? isn't "applying a thin coat of paint" just, like.. putting a clipping layer over your art??? how are harsh edges made by this?
I usually do this with smooth watercolor. I do all my rendering with the default dense watercolor, and then soften certain edges with the smooth watercolor brush.
Youre reading too hard into it. Just get ur values good then understand the differences between cast and form shadow and thats all u need As u progress youll learn about temperature and transitioning This has the same energy as what brush do u use. Meticulous stuff like this doesnt improve ur fundamentals. Sorry if this spunded like hate but just trying to help. I used to be just like this. Setting really dont matter at all. Just stick w a hard round and turn off opacity 👍
omg i've been doing digital art professionally for 15 years and just learned this is possible -_- by the way photoshop doesn't have this option but wacom has it as a setting under it's pen tip feel
this literally means nothing like this doesn't change the functionality of the brush at all. Its just setting up a brush to whatever is easier to you, which may improve ur art but its not something that you're doing wrong / should do right now
an addition: you also get this by having normal blur brush with certain settings, or there are even assetts brushes that doing this, paint on more pressure, blur on less. so this is absolutely nothing special here
I don't even know if that's possible in Photoshop, this being an industry standard program for so long, meaning that you probably can just use different brushes to accomplish the same thing
Literally never touched settings of my csp brushes (I don't wanna spend hours on setting things up I wanna DRAW if I was into preparation I would paint on canvases 🙄) but I've been doing it on my more rendered drawings too. I just kinda... Don't press on my pen much x)
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! ☺️
my favorite part is when thewackyartist said "its glazing time" then glazed all over the place
😂😭😂
yea that was so cool
Lol just had a spit take 🤣 Rajiv
reading this
white and sticky
BEN BALMACEDA!?
the glazing is insane
XD it is
LMAOO
I knew someone was going to make this joke
Literally XD
What did he glaze? Glazeing is like over praising something right?

no one cares omg
bro just rediscovered the soft round brush
Lmaaaaaaooooo
Ikr, it's right there all the time
Why does no one talk about this 😭 thank you!
Haha yeah sometimes its hard to remember all the tips we learn when starting out.
I've been wondering for years! 🥹 I have been going by with air brushes but I'm gonna try this out soon
Honestly I think it’s because it’s not a beginner tip anymore, it’s like an intermediate tip which there’s a lack of
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
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 :)
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 🥰
what cases would this be for? skin focus clothing edges and maybe lighting fall off?
@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

You can also just use a softer textured brush such as a watercolor brush without having to do all that
Thanks for commenting and yes, that’s true but watercolors usually have some texture that come with it. This allows you to turn any brush into one that suits you.
I’ve tried it but I don’t really like the look of it since I use the thick oil paint brushes and the watercolor looks out of place.

I've always wanted to know what that curve actually does to the brush. Thank you for the concise explanation!
Oh wow thanks! You talking about playing constantly with opacity and hardness of the edge of the brush is exactly my experience!!!
I’m glad you’re finding this helpful!
its good to know that there are some other ways of glazing my art, tysm for the tip
I am so thankful for artists like you. I have made the transition to digital art and have no idea what I am doing.
You’re a life saver thank you! I’ve been stuck trying to figure this out for a year now.
I’m still not clear on what this actually does. In the final shot of the portrait being glazed it looks like nothing is happening lol
Oh my god I use clip studio and since it was already open I chose a random brush and tried this and IT LOOKS SO PROFESSIONAL??!! they gotta be gatekeeping so hard bc HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS?
where can u find it on clip studio?
@@EE-mw7vb just open brush settings then pen pressure
probably because it's pointless to change your sensitivity curve back and front all the time when you can do this with an airbrush
Thank you for showing this!
Definitely useful - but you can also just use a lower opacity and colour co trip to mix a better gradient where your two colours collide .
As others have said leaving it like this permanently can cause issues
In Affinity Photo, it's called accumulation jitter ❤️ This is a life saver!!
Im confused, what does this help with exactly? Shape of the stroke or like opacity?
Yea same, I think it's a very subtle outline glow around the edges maybeee...?? Not too sure tho...
Opacity, I'm pretty sure. Never used it but that seems to be the case.
@carimeslockdownedtree2654 thank you my life is yours
This makes life so much easier. I was using the blending tool and going in on every hard edge at a time blending until smooth. And it took me an annoyingly long amount of time.
Awesome! I really expected this channel to have more views
Thanks! Means a lot 🥹
U can use numbers 0-9 to change the lvl of opacity/flow when it's needed. Saves yr wrist during render phase
Thank you ao much! Rendering anything shading! Has been such a pain for me 😭
For Procreate i tried clicking on my brush of choice - Properties - brush behaviour - & played around with the maximum opacity setting
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Was looking for a procreate way of doing this. Thank you!!
thank you for teaching me how to glaze my art
glad to be reminded that I am not a beginner lmao

Same I don't get it
Thank you. I started digital yesterday and to color I just drew a line and used fill bucket LOL I always wondered how they did this
Thank you, I cannot wait to try this out!!!
I’m excited for you! 😊
I usually do this with smooth watercolor. I do all my rendering with the default dense watercolor, and then soften certain edges with the smooth watercolor brush.
Thanks. I am subscribing for more tips and tricks like this one.
Genuinely almost no one talks about this, I was using overlay and multiply to try and get that
THANK U I literally cried cuz nothing I did gave me the effect I wanted I’m gonna try it rn
Holy crap, i needed this!
I needed to know this for so long
Oh my gosh.
I'm getting into digital art when I get my stylus this Christmas!
Thank you so much for this info!
Thank you!!! 🥺😭🫂💜
THANK YOU! I’ve been wanting to know this for so long 😭😭 can you make this a series
Glad you found this helpful! And yess I am planning on making a series of tips that I find helpful. 😊
I wish you'd explain more why it works like this :)
He was glazing it ngl.
when they say its nit about the brushes but some brushes can save u lots of time
the art of glazing
Bro whenever he talks about Lebron
Youre reading too hard into it.
Just get ur values good then understand the differences between cast and form shadow and thats all u need
As u progress youll learn about temperature and transitioning
This has the same energy as what brush do u use. Meticulous stuff like this doesnt improve ur fundamentals.
Sorry if this spunded like hate but just trying to help. I used to be just like this. Setting really dont matter at all. Just stick w a hard round and turn off opacity 👍
DUUUUDE HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS TYYY
Thx mate ^-^
Deffenetly subbing ❤
"This is known as glazing." suppressed me so much I exhaled through my nose strongly
This is game changing.
Glad you find it helpful 😊
I learned about glazing in my art history class this year and I couldn’t take it seriously
omg i've been doing digital art professionally for 15 years and just learned this is possible -_-
by the way photoshop doesn't have this option but wacom has it as a setting under it's pen tip feel
THANK YOU. OH MY GOD.
Oh wow! Thank you
that's what I actually needed
Im not an artist but im used to glazing artwork
Thank you ❤
this literally means nothing like this doesn't change the functionality of the brush at all. Its just setting up a brush to whatever is easier to you, which may improve ur art but its not something that you're doing wrong / should do right now
How is this not literally the same as setting a lower opacity and flow? Whatever parameters that curve affects, just reduce them instead of remapping.
Hii Omgosh I have never heard of this !!! Can this be done in CSP and affinity ?
I'm confused what effect r u talking about?I don't see a difference
I’ll just stick to the basic settings because I don’t wanna mess up my brushes
Its really easy, my friend is extremely good at glazing
WOOW this is awesome I have never heard of this
It's the thing that makes it look fluid, ykwim? Like shiny and moist, while my attempts at blending look like mud smudged on the floor
I will start glazing my art now
an addition: you also get this by having normal blur brush with certain settings, or there are even assetts brushes that doing this, paint on more pressure, blur on less. so this is absolutely nothing special here
This is the same thing we miniature painters do to give our models a bit extra.
Thought he was talking about physical art for a second then realised he was talking digital.
tbh i had to learn this myself when i first started
Subscribed because of this video.
I usually add another layer and add a blur filter and down the opacity on the whole thing 🥲
When I hear "GLAZING" I think of the clear coat you add to a painting. So idk what he's talking about.
Is he talking about blending or blurring edges?
awesome i just found this out on my own lol
Glazing over glazing? I approve this message!
He glazed all over her effortlessly in the end!!!
👏👏
I just switch to a soft brush and either go between 3% opacity to 30% on a new layer.
Can you do the same with procreate?
How do I do this on Procreate?😭😭
Go to the action menu, under Prefs you'll find pressure and smoothing
Just telling us this earned you a sub like why is this never mentioned I thought linear was ok 😭😭😭
cries in ibispaint
If only sai had this.😊
can't you use a new layer with a layer setting like multiply, add, overlay, etc? You can also mess with how it looks with soft watercolor brush
Its on ibis in the setting :3
is it available in sketchbook?
I don't even know if that's possible in Photoshop, this being an industry standard program for so long, meaning that you probably can just use different brushes to accomplish the same thing
I just wanna say im far from a beginner artist and i didnt know that. Thanks
Now let's just try to find that in medibang paint
Literally never touched settings of my csp brushes (I don't wanna spend hours on setting things up I wanna DRAW if I was into preparation I would paint on canvases 🙄) but I've been doing it on my more rendered drawings too. I just kinda... Don't press on my pen much x)
Can you do this in Photoshop? if so how? does anyone know?
le dot.
Can I do it in Ibis paint x,and if yes,how plz!!help😢
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.
Could you show an example in this video?
