For you who wonder how he do the perspective grid:
Its the polygon tool (U) in photoshop
set the sides to 99 and use the pulldown tab, click "star"
than under "indent sides" set your value to 99 percent
hope this helps
You da mvp in this comment section.
Leesment you just saved me time and a major headache!!! awesome sauce!!!!
Holy shit thanks from the future mate!
Any one know the csp equivalent
@@pureyarcadian3710 csp has a perspective ruler, but i dont use that cuz it make my lines snap
so good to see that great artists like you take some time just to share this things. very appreciated.
I think this is a very good way to do things if you are still learning about values and getting the lighting right.
Another tip is to add a layer filled in with 100% black on top of all other layers, and set the layer to Saturation. This is a handy way to check that values are right and that it still reads well by just turning the layer on every now and again :)
its been 6 years and it was the 1st digital painting video I saw and made me get into it. It will be my all time fav.
Such an inspiration! This is my new standard, and I will aim for this great heights XD
It's been 9 years. Did you achieve it? If not then you're a failure that cannot keep to his own standards
wow! I mean you did this within just a layer using basic brushes! This requires so much patience man. A learning experience.
Absolutely amazing! Totally mesmerized watching the process you go through to get the final product.
The lighting in this piece is incredible. Gorgeous painting Noah!
hold you graphic pad pen and have chillstep in the background and watch the master do his work RESPECT!!
That's absurd how good you are! If takes me four/five hours just to paint a person, let alone an entire landscape!
Doing a lot of color studies, such as from life and photographs, will help you a lot and train your eye to better see colors in a more observant way. It'll come with time for sure, and eventually it'll become second nature to you, like everything else. Not sure I answered you're question but just my two cents. Also the color wheels are your best friend.
This is ridiculously cool. I've gotten better at landscapes, but still have so much to learn when it comes to town settings
Cannot unsee O~O face on castle!
Otherwise its frikking amazing!
Fantastic work! I love to watch these kinds of videos, because even though there is no commentary and the vid is sped up, I still learned so much. This is very inspiring stuff, I can't wait to get started on my next piece!
Those birds.. Oh god those same birds have bothered me so much in one of the Guild Wars 2 loading screen arts where they actually used this exact same bird brush two times in a single picture.
You can use an image of a perspective grid. Here he used two for the two point perspective and scaled them the way he wanted. This way is much easier than created the grids over and over again and less blurry than using a grid brush.
love that bird brush. I gotta get one of those.
You sir... are an artist!
He didn't make that mistake. take a straight edge and line it up with the vertical elements, you'll notice they converge to a vanishing point far above the page. He did a really great job.
Nice 123 read, amazing you got so much dark shadow and mids. and stills it feel light. . awsome skill!
great video! now we need another 20 hours to polish the details, add more curve layers to boost contrast, chromatic aberration, color-management, colour lookup layers, maybe add some match-color layers to harmonize, and post-processing in general
This is awesome. Only one thing bothers me, and that is that you painted the castle in two-point perspective. On such an immense and tall structure, from that point of view, you would see the towers rise toward a vanishing point high in the sky, not perfectly vertical and parallel to each other.
Amazing artwork...
Daaaaaaaaaaamn son !
Nice video mate, cool painting.
Dis is sum mlg swag boi painting
This is so clever way to fix the perspective. Bow before the master!
My god man, you're amazing. I bought a tablet in ambition to become as good as artists like you, though I'm shit haha. Would you ever consider including 1080p+ res images in your portfolio to use as wallpapers. Because I see some truly amazing pictures on your portfolio.
Remember reading this in ImagineFX! love it!
good to see you posting again. weird how long it took to merge down the perspective lines. that kind of thing drives me up the wall when I paint. anyway, did I see you using dodge?
What an awesome talent !
i wish there was some kind of comentry
Thanks for your tutorial! It was good to see your workflow
So inspiring :), love your work dude
This is amazing,
If you want to listen to some great music alongside this video, I suggest searching for "8-Hour | Epic Music Mega Mix" and let it run alongside this. It's quite amazing.
Beautiful. Its funny how so many talented artists also have done work for Magic: The Gathering XD
SO good ! How many times you need bofor being able to put something this quality with so much details and ambiance ?
I’m speechless.
art everywhere!!!!
Amazing stuff. Great Job.
Fantastic!
Level: MASTER
Great job! Why do you rotate the image when you working?
+Fran Cobas Rotating the image or 'flipping' it gives the artist a new angle to look at their work. If something doesn't look right mirrored it's wrong the other way around as well. An artist's eye can get used to perspective mistakes while you're making your piece, by flipping the canvas you get a fresh look at your art and you tend to notice 'mistakes' or things you want to change.
Because its easier to do different brushstrokes at different angles
+Fran Cobas thanks for asking the question because i was wondering the same thing i will have to try this.
Wow, such a fantastic artist! I want to have a tropical jungle scene with a waterfall in the background and coffee trees in the foreground. Possibly Caribbean peoples picking the coffee. How easy would that be?
Hi Noah! First of all, great paint, awesome, second, can you tell me how did you put those grids? (perspective grids) or you made it yourself?
great work man, subbed, keep up the great work.
nice any chance of getting your perspective grid or show us how you made it
men, you are The DrawMan!
Pure genius
very impressive
I'd never have the confidence to do something that detailed with one layer :']
that's bc you are pu--c
lol
Whit Brachna's brushes are the most used set in concept art world, lol.
Amazing Work!
- What kind of brushes did you use? What brush settings and textures?
- How long did it took to paint this?
- You don't seem to like layers. :P Why?
I love it!!!
That level of skill is sickening.
Great work. Rien d'autre à dire ;)
Hey great work! Could you please make a video about the how to set those perspective lines?
Did you plan this before speedpainting it, or are you just interpreting what you have in your mind directly to the canvas? Like working on a big thumbnail?
How do you get that fog/distance effect in the farther parts of the picture? Whenever I try that it just looks bad.
crazy awesome. Really, that's impressive. How long did this take you to paint?
I can't tell because of the speed of the video but are u changing color using the color picker or shortcuts?
What was the squarish brush that you used through most of the piece? and great work by the way, that was excellent!
He has uploaded one full enviro' painting video with commentary to RUclips, beyond that you'll have to buy his videos from his website; they're pretty cheap anyways.
Noah you are amazing !! Im your watcher and subscriber on devart and youtube (: May I ask, how do you pick colors so quickly and get the most perfect colors? I was inspired by your approach to directly laying down colors but roughly 20% of my time or more goes on picking colors.
Amazing bravo, especially considering the fact you do use layers.
what's your opinion on starting in Black and white and then colorizing?
this goes great with some final fantasy 9 music.
Whats the software to record the desktop with this kind of sharpness and with that long video duration. cause when i do it goes like more then 1gb just for 15 mins video recorded.. :(
so sickk
That's amazing
where to begin? I really wanted to become a 3D environment artist. I have tried 3Ds max modeling and I think I'll learn it. But the equipments are very expensive, laptop and and wacoms (ex intuos, bamboo, & cintiq) the smaller one.
So what I think becoming a concept artist is the cheapest way right? So after that what to do? Do I have to draw lines, cross-hatching etc or what?
IF you can layout a plan for me then it'll be better. Pls sir.
thank you
What causes that shadow that falls diagonaly on the castle ?
sick skillz
Hey, just a quick question, how did you add the guide lines for your perspective into the painting?
Casey Robinson Its a brush , there are tutorials for the brush on RUclips.
louis daly ,hi can you give the brush download link, thinks.
very nice
Wooow! did u really just draw this whole painting only painting on the backround thats so "living on the edge"
+Sebastian Larsson that is how people where doing it for centuries only nowadays we can use digital
the brush of perspictive line where did u get it
What is the name of that song and by who?
Did you do this on a singular layer or did you use more than one?
Hey there, your artwork is really inspiring, i found you via Reddit, and god am i greatful. Anyhow i have a few questions :) How does one utilize those perspective lines you use, and also, how does one aqcuire that square brush of yours. Thank you so much :)
Is it possible to paint architecture like this on one layer? I just don't believe it
all on one layer? impressive! how do you set up those perspective grids?
Hi Noah! Did you have some kind of planning for the concept before beginning, or your discover for the painting is what we see on the video? Thanks!
Imposing Style!!
I have the hardest time knowing which colors go with what to make it look good. I end up getting pieces that may look okay technically but the colors detract from the overall quality immensely. My color theory needs a lot of work but is there a general rule for picking colors or is it a more intuitive process?
The brush you used... i always looking for it everywhere... can you give me that brush please-
what is the perspective lines tool you have? how do i make it and or how do i get it?
Very nice ! Do you have a deviant art page?
without using too much layers - wow, i wouldnt have done that complex work without using few hundred layers
This is amazing,how long did it take you in real-time to finish? it looks like a Persian bazaar
Where did you get that vector grid? Thanks.
tuneeee
Also you have to be careful that it doesn't come out looking like a black and white hollywood movie that's been colorized.
I'm wondering if i can ever get to this level ...
What did you use for doing the perspective lines?
Is this the dark orbits music?
SO GREAT~~~~~
What brush did you use for the perspective lines?
What brushs you used? Where can i downloaded this?
Back in the day when people relayed on skill and mastery and not prompts. Not saying it's bad, but it was different back then.
Hi.. how can I draw and paint like this.. any tutorials??
Thanks
