DISCLAIMER:
All art tips given in the videos are SUGGESTIONS, and you can draw however you'd like! I am also not a perfect artist and have many areas to improve in as well, though things I cover in videos are merely my own personal thoughts on how I approach art which I share in hopes that they may help others. If they do help, great! But if you feel like the tips are wrong or don't apply to your style, draw as you'd like- It's your art!

I tried to edit out as much as I could without compromising the content, but I was editing over 5 hours of recorded footage + this is like 3 videos in one + I'm currently busy with uni, internship, and commissions LOL... I skipped over a lot but if you'd like me to cover anything in specific or more in depth in another video, let me know in a comment! As always, thank you for watching!!
Never has there been an artist whose videos and art had drawn (haha) so much awe and an actual eagerness to practice coloring, something I've always struggled with. Breathtaking work!
Thank you so much for such a kind and thoughtful comment!! I'm honored to hear that this helped you feel eager to practice coloring! Thank you for the support! TT
YOU DESERVE ALL THE PRAISE!! I'm looking forward to supporting all of your future work 🥺🥺
@@kageru5077 Thank you!! TT
I needed this! 😭
I took a bunch of photos when I was in Japan a few times, and have been trying to figure out how to repurpose them into background art. Seeing this in well-explained steps is so helpful!
I'm glad you found it helpful! It's always lots of fun to use trip photos for background art! I hope you had fun during your trips to Japan!
One of the best drawing guides I've seen, it really shows the details that I wanted to know how they were made, and each end result looks so good, exactly the kind of results I'm aiming for! Thank you!!
Thanks for this. Backgrounds are a struggle, so it helps to see how others approach them
Thank you for commenting, I'm glad it was helpful for you!
I’ve usually been pretty intimidated with backgrounds in general, but your video has helped me immensely. Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I learned so much and I can’t wait to try it out 😊
I'm glad it was helpful for you! Thank you for watching, and I hope you have fun trying it out! : D
Wow! Would LOVE a underwater painting tutorial ! Water is so tricky for me and yours is just Muwha so beautiful ! Super talented and glad to find you !
Thank you so much!! Underwater painting tutorial is definitely on my list, and I'm honored you think so! Thank you for your support!
TYSM THIS IS ACTUALLY HELPFUL
I would love to see a tutorial about the way u do perspectives and how they work
I'm glad you found it helpful!! And to be honest I don't fully understand perspective LOL but I can try to make a video on how I approach it in the future! Thank you for the request! : D
@@oyunorka I SEE THAT WOULD BE AN HONOR TYSMM!
You bubble brush looks amazing!! I hope you make a video on your brush making process, thank you for this helpful tutorial :)
Thank you so much!! My brush making method is a bit strange haha but maybe someday I'll make a short video on it- Will definitely try to release the bubble brush I made soon though! Thank you for watching!
i'm a brand new subscriber who found you while looking for tutorials on how to cheat backgrounds, and i watched several of your other videos after this one. you're criminally underrated and extremely talented, your tutorials are super concise and helpful for people of all stages of art whether they be beginner, intermediate, or just looking for some help! i love your narration and i love how clear your instructions and advice are. i'll definitely be turning on notifications to check out any new uploads!!
Haha cheating backgrounds is great!! Thank you so much for your support and such a kind and thoughtful comment, I'm really grateful for your support!! :)
Very cool video! I've attemped this myself with old photos, this tutorial helps a lot thanks!
I'm glad it helps, thank you for watching!
I learned alot!
This also one of my favorites art process thanks for your insight it's really helpful ♥️
I'm glad it was helpful, thank you for watching!
Amazing video!! This saves so much time while still making sure the final piece looks great. That piece with the photo of your road trip looks like it cost hours.
Thank you so much for watching!! And it took about 3ish hours, I was able to save quite a bit of time using brushes for the pine needles and textures, if you'd like me to link it let me know! :)
omg I really needed this since I wanna draw more backgrounds for my characters. So learning more is so fun, thank youu for making this tutorial :3
Omg this is exactly what I've been needing!!! I've been trying to use pictures as backgrounds for my characters, but find that no matter how well I shade the character for the setting, they seem out of place. Your process of editing the picture as well made everything make sense!! It also explained how some layer effects could help that I'd been too confused to try before, like overlay. I'm going to watch more of your videos and subscribe to you now, you've really made it so much easier to learn! Thank you!!
I'm glad this was helpful to you, especially with the overlay layer explanation! Thank you so much for your support and for watching!!
OMG THANK YOUUU !! This is PERFECT !! The details of the vid is amazing wow !! you’re so underrated 😭 I HOPE SOMEDAY WE WILL BE ABLE TO SEE YOUR CHANNEL GROW CAUSE U DESERVE IT !! Also YESSSS PLSS Do a vid on how you draw your characters and how you do lightings !! (Also tips on anatomy and colors cause JWJJSJW but NO PRESSURE !!) ❤
Thank you so much!! I'm honored you think so, I'll continue to do my best to work on videos!!
And yes for sure, I'll definitely add all those video topics to my list!!
Tysm so much for this! You do not understand how much this video has inspired me as a artist! I have thought about wanting to draw my characters on photos i took but i never really had to confidence to do it even though i slightly knew how it would work, this gave me a lot of inspiration and for the past years ive been doing art i have only recently started photobashing to save time when in the past i thought it was considered cheating
Thank you!! I'm so happy to hear it inspired you, and using photos definitely isn't considered cheating!! I'm glad this video was able to help, thank you for watching!!
woowow this is soo cool!! i have some photos from japan and an aquarium i can use with these methods!
OHH Japan photos!! It's always fun to use trip photos in drawings, I hope you have fun if you do try it out!! : D
This was super helpful thank you so much!! I love the way you do your composition, your drawings have such a chill vibe I can't really describe but is soo good! :D (I'm sorry for my bad english :'))

This was amazing! Thanks for this!
Thank you for watching!!
you're underrated your art is too good!
Thank you, I'm honored you think so!
Your background artwork is so great. I like how you integrate the background into your characters. You mentioned you used painterly brushes, which one do you use for the sunset and underwater one? I've been looking for specific background brushes and yours look just perfect.
Thank you so much, I'm honored you think so!
For the painterly brushes, I used this one for the water in both pieces: assets.clip-studio.com/en-us/detail?id=1746129
Though in the sunset one, I used the "PPClouds" brush from this set for all the clouds!: www.deviantart.com/porforever/art/Porforever-s-Custom-Brush-Set-613602656
Genius!
I'm far from it haha but thank you!!
Even if i don't do art i can tell this is a very informative and helpful video for anyone interested. thank you oyun 😎
Thank you Zucc!! Appreciate it a lot esp from you, love the way you edit and format videos!! Was literally thinking about "Damn I feel like Zucc could have edited this better" while I was editing this LMAO
@@oyunorka Oh I'm right now hyper critical of my own edits. i noticed some things i would fix up but only probably cause I've been grinding hard so dont beat yourself up, you did great
Woah, thank you! Your tutorials are so helpful! Suscribed
Thank you for the support, I appreciate it!! Ohh that sounds like a fun video idea, I'll add it to my list, thank you for the suggestion!
Yes please for the underwater scene 😭i've been trying to achieve that for ages... but i realllyyyy don't know how to use blending modes :(
I'll definitely add it to my list then!! I love drawing underwater scenes so I'll definitely be doing a video on it then- Thank you for the suggestion! : D
@@oyunorka 😭Omg tysmm I can't wait :D I love your art and the way you color btw, keep it up :0
sorry for spaming but i fr fell in love this ur chanel please keep going omg!!!
NOO don't apologize, I'm really thankful for the kind comments!! :) Thank you for watching and for your support!!
4:38 How did you paint the orange color all at once without the shadows being erased? Thanks for tips!
I cut out a little bit haha so it wasn't immediately done like in the video, but since I already shaded on a layer clipped to the below layer, I right clicked the shading layer, then clicked "Selection from Layer" > "Create Selection", then on the selection pop up I clicked "Invert Selected Area" (the icon with a dotted triangle and a filled triangle), then filled it with an orange color! And thank you for watching!
Hi hiiiii thank you so much for all y9ur work ❤️🥰❤️ i live warching your videos ❤️
I have a request. I am doing relatively well with flat colour but atruggling to render or shade my art is there a chance you could do an episode on that? ❤️
Thank you for watching my videos! I'll definitely try and do a video on rendering/shading eventually, thank you for the suggestion!
U have such a nice style n calming voice. And ur name sounds familiar to my native language lol X3
Ps: i always struggle on bc so i will give this a try.
Thank you so much!! And haha is it Turkish? I know Oyun means game in Turkish! I'm part Mongolian so my name is short for Oyunchimeg!
@@oyunorka Whooaa that's soo intresting! And yes! it is turkish X3
who came from clip studio??
Me.
🤚
This is really helpful! Is there any way you could share what brushes you use though? It's kind of hard for me to find brushes in the asset store.
Of course! I have a huge list so hopefully this comment doesn't get youtube autoflagged with the links LOL

@@oyunorka THANK YOU SO MUCCH 🙏🙏🙏💗💗
At 6:30, how did you change the colours of the background and the OC before adding the overlay layer with the cool and warm colours??
Are you referring to adding the blue highlights behind the character, or something else? If blue highlights, I color picked from the sky and on the layer above photo and beneath character, I used a blue highlight and set blending mode to "Lighten" to brighten some parts behind the character.
For the cool and warm colors, I think I cut out a part on accident LOL but that was the overlay layer itself, at 06:58 you might be able to see it a bit clearer but 'Layer 22' which is the overlay layer, when I reduce the opacity of it and turn it to normal you can see the colors of the drawing reflect more of the original image/photo.
If you need me to explain in a different way let me know! Or if that wasn't what you were asking, let me know and I can explain! :)
What brushes do you use for like the painterly details? and like bruh, any tips of how to effectively or correctly mix the anime cellshade style and painterly aspects with out one out weighing the other? much like your art, I'd appreciate the advice.
For brushes, not sure if links will get deleted LOL so here's all the brush IDs for painterly style brushes I like to use!
1746129 (Brush I use the most for painterly style!)
1391024
1783228
1708873
For effectively mixing anime celshade style and painterly, I actually still struggle with that LOL I think it depends on what sort of look you want to go for! Typically I do cel shade first then do some details with sharper painting brushes (1746129) and then use softer (1391024) or more transparent brushes (1783228) to polish it up! Maybe I'll make a video on it in the future!
@@oyunorka Thanks for getting back to me, definitely can't wait to give these brushes a try!
can we do this using something like "IbisPaint X"?
I don't have clip studio paint or Photoshop
Yes, you should be able to! I'm not familiar with IbisPaint but assuming it has blending modes and layers, everything I covered in this video should be applicable!
At 4:16 how did you select the areas in the layer like you did there? I’m struggling to figure it out 😂
I right clicked on the shading layer and then clicked Selection from layer > Create selection, then on the selection toolbar that pops up I click the "Invert selected area" button (two triangles on top of each other!) Then made a new layer and filled the color for lighting on that one : D If you need screenshots let me know!
too fast
Thank you for the feedback! What parts were too fast? The explanations, or the drawing being sped up too fast?
