Amazing. Please do a video just for coloring more in details step by step, never understood how to do this. Also, one video for setting loght and how to shade accordingly
Thank you for this video! Watching along with another artist and learning while drawing helps keep me motivated and excited to draw again. Looking forward to more videos from you. 👍
You can place a sword or any other weapon in front. However, to draw it in correct perspective, you need to understand the basics of perspective. Perspective is based on the viewpoint, so you'll need to study that aspect.✍
wonderful, it was a very detailed process, thank you very much, I'll even go back to drawing! How do you organize the references you use? I could also make a video with a female body, I have a lot of difficulty, when I do it I look like a crooked potato!
Oh, thank you. I'm looking forward to it. In my case, I organize reference materials into folders for colors, characters, backgrounds, and accessories. When needed, I refer to the collected images.
Hey i love your work and steps ❤ Can you tell me how did you define resolution and dpi according to what you are gonna draw? What is this drwing's resolution
Thank you for appreciating my drawing. Hmm… Resolution refers to the number of pixels in an image, affecting the size and detail of the image for both digital and print uses. DPI (dots per inch) determines the quality of printed material, indicating how many dots are printed per inch. And the resolution of this drawing is 3385x6000 pixels at 300 DPI. : )
@@Toad_Artoh i was drawing my skectches on 2000x2000 and it feels like a bit pixelated sometimes when draw something detailed. thanks for such a long and detailed answer you are the best
wow your work process was amazing to watch, i love it!! and the colors look so bright and lively, how do you achieve that starting from the grayscale base? usually they end up muddy and washed out for me, would love some pointers :3
I used a gradient map to adjust the tones of the colors when adding color from grayscale, and then worked on the details. I'll attach a link to the gradient map method. Feel free to check it out if you need it. blog.naver.com/toadart/223482358838
@@senseipro6495 Oh, so your goal is to design game characters. If there's artwork from a character designer you admire, it's a good idea to try copying their work. You can learn some of their skills that way. Let's draw together. : )

How do you put the flat colors and the gray scale together? Do you put it in devide or overlay? In this part is where i always had the worst and longest time to edit and finish
@@Toad_Art oh so the grayscale mode was put to multiply and the flat color was in the bottom? Mode still in normal? I always thought the flat color was the one that should be put in overlay or multiply and put the grayscale below then edit the rest to finish the art, i always got stuck for a few hours rendering and fixing the colors because of that. Thank you very much for that new tip! That helps me a lot! Thank you!

@@Toad_Art I am doing animation course and to make traditional animation or fx I need strong drawing. It doesn't have to be realistic but line of action strokes body balance, and alot. Has to be taken care of. And I also did character design as side but my drawing wasn't that good as it was self taught. I was also worried about ai too.

@@winterapplegamingYT203 Thank you for appreciating my drawing. It’s impressive that you’re studying animation. I also had concerns about AI, but to survive in these times, we need to think of it as a tool to enhance our art by improving quality through AI, receiving auxiliary help, or gaining inspiration for creation. I don’t think you should worry about your character design skills being self-taught.

@@sini4ka111 I agree with that point. Full-length videos can be too boring to watch, and short videos might be lacking. So, I focus on creating content that delivers the necessary information appropriately.
Thanks for this video. I have a few questions: - Do you use multiply layer for B&W shading? - What is the order of shading layer & color layer? I mean, which one on top? Any blending mode in this phase? :D
Yes, it’s a multiply layer. I place the color flat layer underneath and the shading layer on top. Above that, I use a gradient map to adjust the color values. : )
@@Toad_Art Aha, gradient map, that's why I'm confusing the 2 layers, usually we can't "see" the below layer. I hope you have another video to explain how to use the gradient map. :D Thanks.
@@DEADEYESpress ruclips.net/video/fGcWS9jt_Ho/видео.html The black-masked layers around this point are the gradient map layers. I’ll add more details about this in my next video. Thanks for your feedback. : )
