My only complaint about this approach is how many layers it requires to get that desired look. I'm sure you can just merge some to an extent, but it can get super daunting to have so many layers, especially with more complex images. I'm glad to see grayscale colorized with such beautiful colors, though. My biggest fear was it looking washed out or 'muddy'. I'll definitely give this a try.
It is muddy. Just look at the PSD. Those greys can be taken out with a color adjustment to make them more vibrant.
I always just merge the layers after I get past like 5 or 6 and then start creating more layers after that
You don’t need to keep every layer separated. You can always merge down
I really wish one of these videos could show the shading process in Grayscale 🙂. Everybody is concerning from Grayscale to colour and I'm trying to learn how to create Grayscale 🙂
what helps me is using traditional graphite its literally greyscale haha
just learn about shadows and local colours. you're essentially just defining how the materials are gonna react with the light so learning light and shadow theory is what you need to have as good grasp on first.
it's called values... My biggest struggle in art haha
Woah!? I have 30+ drawings that i left in white and black and gray XD this is helpful!
I've always struggled to use the greyscale first approach. Breaking it down like this makes a lot of sense.
Thanks for the video!
This video is great! I always struggle with muddy colors when coloring from grayscale, but now I understand more about it. I think my next grayscale to color piece will be much better. Thanks Josh!!
I've been waiting this since you tell us. so excited!!!
Thanks for the tutorial. It is great to know the breakdown of different workflows.
Definetly worth watching!
Plus giving away teh PSD is a really nice touch. Appreciate it!
I am surprised that you always manage to make me understand complicated things with simple steps
perfect, this is exactly what I needed!
Thank you! I have been trying to use greyscale more in my work and this will definitely help me out. Also this piece is still so pretty :D
Fantastic tutorial, thank you for sharing your process! I learned a lot about color in addition to the painting process.
Thank you for your videos. Your voice is so soothing but also you give good advice.
You are so welcome!
stellar portrait study 💗
Man, I loved you, you are amazing you have a great job. I will start following your videos more, you are very good at what you do, thank you for sharing your knowledge!
IVE BEEN WITING FOR THIS !!
All the other artist had to teach quantum physics in order to get us to even understand how to do grayscale but this seemed so easy.
I have been looking for a video like this, thank you very much for helping me
The whole start of the layer mode intro I'm only staring at the Razer Tartarus at the side there with want xDD It's not the most expensive but for my local currency the price is much oof
ANYWAY this is the most concise tutorial for this sort of coloring method I've seen ever. Most people just show one method and speed through the process. I appreciate you including the what, why and how things are done :D
Thank you! I’m probably going to start drawing with grayscale now
your way of presenting is so calm and nice ;D
I love your shirt 🥺🥺🥺 thanks for the tutorial!!
You give a lot of good information thanks for this video.
Great video as usual Josh!
About the issue of one can't do grayscale well, I'm interpreting that to mean that we can't get good details compared to digitaly painting it. If that's the case, then it's more process intensive to add more detail in isn't it?

Also, since I didn't mention it in the video: you can do this in ANY program that has blending modes/layers. Photoshop, Procreate, CSP, Krita, Medibang, etc. The only thing that may be missing is the gradient map and masking features.
ok
Alr
HONEY WAKE UP NEW ERGOJOSH JUST DROPPED
Yass I have a black and white drawing to color ✨
Your voice is soooo relaxing
I once tried painting in gray scale xD but it turned out OK (quite xD) but with this I understand a little more the process Thank you Ergojosh !!!
great tutorial! thanks friend :)
Thanks a lot for this video.
What about using the Neural Filters to colorize black and white as a starting point and that tweak it later? Have you played around with some of the new filters?
Yes! I found it to be actually pretty decent, but still didn't give as good a result as my version. It can be an awesome base to start off from too. If you are doing portraits like this semi-realistic, its a must have.
@@ergojosh Thank you.
this is great
Why couldn’t I find this video when I was trying to learn how to colourise my greyscale paintings? I searched and couldn’t find anything like this. So I had to learn the hard way, and happily I can see I’m using the right process.
I use Procreate on iPad and I used to have so much trouble doing digital art, I found it fiddly and time consuming. Too many colours, too many brushes etc.
So I decided to try something different. Originally being a graphite drawer, I decided to “draw” in greyscale, and use only one brush for each painting. It was a game changer. I massively improved.
Afterwards I figured out how to colourise my greyscale paintings. I make a separate layer on top, set it to “colour” and then I use the Medium Blend brush to paint my colours. Sometimes I might even use the gradient map beforehand to colourise it faster.
But MAN I could have watched this video back then!
This helps alot! I been stuck on grayscale practice...I change tone of the drawing but end up flopped.
I'm really curious about how you extracted the color for the first pic and added it back, how did you do it? It looks impressive
you do it by changing an images blending mode to color and then put a normal layer under it that is filled with 50% value gray then you combine the layers
@@Fwoppy808 aah, that's helpful. Thanks!
Can you make a tutorial about how you do grayscale as well ?
How would you do this for a dark skin character like Mel from Arcane? Thank you for this video really helpful ❤️
great tutorial! How did you get your reference embedded in photoshop window? Im slightly mind fugged. been trying to do this for ever now
2:55 It's so true! If I've drawn a grayscale scene with lots of brush stroke detail, then I don't know how to add color while keeping the detail
Question egro when you did the color part..did you keep the greyscale visible or hide it once done?
nicely abstracted, donno if thats a word :)
Can you teach out to do this with brown or black skin?
Hey ErgoJosh, Have you replaced CSP for PHOTOSHOP?
how about a Hard Light greyscale (with a gradient map) on top of a flat color layer? It's what I use and I was wondering what flaws that work process has from someone more experienced XD
How do you the ony color layer? I mean how to segregate a picture into value layer and color layer like yours?
love
Your voice is very nice♥
РАДИОВОЛНА)) откуда такая футболка у тебя?
Sorry about my dumb question but where can I get link to understand what you mean when you say skin value of girl is '10' as I know about black thru white 1-10 values of greyscales inc white and blank but you mention the skin tone specifically which is a 10 but it a skin colour of her ethnic group so not from the black grey tones etc it looks a slightly pink to "sort of ruddy complexion" - what are you using to get to that value in colours??
where can i buy this NFT i want to be a proud owner of this item
Так неожиданно видеть футболку с русским шрифтом!
❤️
very useful video, thank you. Please make the same video for procreat. Separate respect for радиоволна!))
I didn't understand much, but I'm gonna save this video for later lol
Lmaooo what a mood
we need same tutorial in procreate master
yayy
крутая футболка
👍👍
What is a PSD file?
.psd is the file extension for a Photoshop document, that almost any painting app can open! including Procreate and krita. *it has all of the layers you saw in the video.
@@ergojosh oh that's pretty neat didn't know that that was a thing, thank you for taking the time to answer my question.
what method recommeded for new beginner artist that want to learn digital art?
using grayscale or just paint with color already?
Getting values and edges right is more important for solid art than keeping colours true-to-life -- you can play with far-out colour choices if you make sure your painting reads clearly by checking that it "makes sense" in greyscale. I personally go straight to sculpting in colour, no line-art, relatively few layers and modes -- Normal, for flats, plus Multiply (or whatever) for shadows, plus Luminosity (or whatever) for highlights.
*Then I add a layer over the top* -- which is filled with black or white and set to Colour mode. This gives a contrast-y, greyscale version of the image that can be toggled on and off. (May desaturate in some programmes instead of giving a value-map. SFAIK, this trick works in Krita and Photoshop but not in Corel).
yoooooooooooo
i never been that early to a big channel before :|
