The Fairy Fir tree - (Happy holidays!) - Krita timelapse
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- I compressed the 6h (or more) of recorded video for an illustration into a 8min timelapse. Honnestly, the artwork could have been done twice faster; but I made 'small' mistakes on the first steps of the making-of (maybe I wanted to go too fast?). Main mistakes: no consistent light direction on foreground and background + wanting to hide the special effect to the end for the tree decoration and finding midway the result is not in my taste anymore. Lessons I learnt on this one: block the keylight more seriously on the underpainting (a layer I tend to be very distracted by all the yummy colors and ambiant possibilities). All of that made me paint-over 3 or 4 times area... But the end illustration is fine, so I thought it was interesting to share the process and annotate to show the mistakes. I hope you'll like this!

There are no mistakes David! Only happy accidents :)
Merry Christmas to you!
It's nice to know that I'm not alone at making art errors and even professional and skilled artists still make mistakes from time to time. While the process wasn't perfect, I really find how you managed your mistakes to be very helpful and insightful. Not that many artists present their processes in this way (if they do at all) and I really appreciate that you took the time to do it this way. :D
I do fully agree with you. Merci beaucoup, David!
A timelapse by David ! It's already Xmas ! 😃
We waited! New video! We really really need more videos next year!
Happy holidays to all!
Thanks for your videos. I learn how to use krita with your vids
People learn by making mistakes. It's better for us if we learn by watching yours and seeing how you fix them instead.
Hello David, I can honestly say, if you would not point out the mistakes you did on this piece, I would not have noticed them at all.
The one thing that I do noticed but just was a matter of taste and choice on your part, was the difference between the initial sketch and the final painting.
I liked the idea of the more visible tree trunk with the cat ontop and the girl, stuck in the snow wave.
This is, like I said a pure artistic choice and thats the reason why there are so many differend art styles.
I wish you and your family Happy Holidays and a good start into a better year 2021.
Even though I don't aim for a professional carrier, just seeing your art makes me feel like doing something awesome. Thank you for making inspiring videos.
Good to see you again, David. I hope you're well.
Best wishes for a good 2021.

Hello David.... all artists struggle at times on various pieces.... it's the normal process. The outcome is what counts. Another beautiful piece. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
You said not to imitate your process, but I think it is still a very good demonstration of how to fix things along the way. Great video, thanks and Merry Christmas!
Просто супер !
I didn’t see this until today. Merry Christmas and thanks for all your work you do teaching us on Krita.
Everyone already said how great this is so I will just agree and won't add more, but noone said how cute your cat is, and someone has to, so here I am! :D
I admire your work, thank you for video ))
And only the artist himself sees his mistakes ;)
great work!
Thank you David!
Thank you so much for the great artwork and all the commentary! This is very helpful. Especially for those, who are still learning and struggling with similar things )) Merry Christmas!
Thank you! Happy holidays!
Beautiful 😮😍
Happy holidays Mr David 😁.. Always an inspiration.. I really loved the no glove mistake😂.. Shows how much attention one needs to pay😁👌🏼
Merry Christmas to you, yours and kitty!
Magnifique ! Je découvre la chaîne et je suis pas déçu
Merci!
Good too see you back
thanks for the interesting video , спасибо
I really appreciate all of your efforts to show your drawing methods. I'm arts student and i love free open source software like Krita, Inkscape and Linux. Congratts and happy new year!!
So lovely
Thank you David, it's very beautiful. Happy holidays to you.
Happy holidays to you too!
as usual you made another astonishing art, we all make mistakes but we all make mistakes and its okay to get up, and redo. I have been using the program for 2 years now i love it and i will continue to support it. Merry Christmas!
I really apreciate your channel; you’re a great artist, make charming charachters and I as a poor man I really like that you show what can be accomplished with free software! Merci d’avoir partagé, monsieur. Cordialment de la Suède!
Merci!
Happy Christmass! I enjoyed it so much!
Wonderful! Thank you so much and have a beautiful christmas/holidays =D
Merry Christmas
Super timelapse ! C'est vraiment une bonne idée de montrer les erreurs faites au fur et à mesure
You are amazing, high key my favorite artist
Thank you
Very beautiful David 👏 👏
BRAVO!!!! 👏👏👏👏 the next commemorative splash screen of Krita?!?
Merry Christmas David.
This was beautiful! Thank you for shedding some light on the mistakes, it is very helpful!
Superbe
Joyeux Noël à vous ! 🎅
I love to see this kind of thing (especially when it is a random recommendation from YT), it always motivates me to keep learning to draw and paint
Very nice David, I particularly like your work with the light on the snow (and the grass peeking out here and there)!
The result is awesome but I must admit that personally I would probably have gone with the original yellowish tree-lights rather than leaving the faeries white; this result ends up having a pretty cold palette for being a Christmas image.
... But anyway, always interesting to see the process! I should definitely learn from you to block in the light on the thumbnail like this, it does allow for much more flexibility to experiment than my own usual process.
Merry Christmas!
thank youuuu i learned a lot
I enjoyed the video mistakes or not it looks grand by the end and so David Merry Christmas and a Happy New year I will keep following you and try to improve my Krita skills
Thank you for your mistakes! I've learned a lot!
merry Christmas David!!
Awesome!!
Hey David,i stumbled across your channel a few days ago,i love everything about it,i love your accent,your drawing style and you whole personality,you inspire me a lot and i want to let you know that youre possibly the best artist ive seen,keep up the great work,looking forward to follow you for a long time! :)
Thank you very much! I'm struggling a bit with my future webcomic episode right now and reading your comment really helps!
Great work
Thank you for sharing your honest process, this is really helpful, beautiful painting..!!
thank you David! always a pleasure to see your art! love your style! happy holudays to you too :)
it was so cool to see the commentary on your work process! thank you for sharing, the art is amazing! and happy holidays
Hi, David joyeuse fêtes à toi aussi même si l année n a pas été vraiment fabuleuse! Tu as imprimer tes épisode de Pepper amd carotte ça. C’était génial. A propos j adore ke logo avec lequel tu fini le livre des 7 école ou 6 je ne sais plus, il est génial
Hi David, you see a lot of "mistakes" made during the painting process. I see a beautiful piece of art❤
Thank you so much 😀
It doesn't bother me to see a lot of fixing in an art timelapse. 😁 It's bound to happen, including scraping the whole idea and starting again from scratch. 😅 This just shows that the artist has a good eye on what works and what doesn't. 😄
Happy Holidays, David. To be honest, I couldn't identify the mistakes. I guess I need to study more. 😁
Hey!I admire your work. I am transitioning from traditional to digital. What tips can you give about learning the digital - courses, ways to learn krita and etc. thanks
nice cat)
:)
Hi, David! I think, despite the mistakes that you have mentioned in the video, the painting is still pretty nice!
Happy New year!🎉🎉🎉
*i have a question, can you tell how do make this perspective grid(?) on 1:00 in this video, i would be very grateful. :^)
Thanks! I'll try to work on my perspective grid (just large bitmap I made manually) to share them soon.
Which paintbrushes do you use? I’m trying to expand my list of tools in Krita.
Magnifique digitalpainting!et merci d'avoir partagé tes erreurs;). Pour cette illustration tu as utilisés une (des)référence(s)?
Yes, I had on my second monitor three images opened all the time: One is a portrait of Pepper with her cape I use as an avatar I drew for a previous episode. And the two other were snow paintings of Ivan Shishkin ; a crush I had while browsing history of painting on Wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_Shishkin (see Winter and "in the wild north" painting).
@@DavidRevoy merci beaucoup pour ton explication ! Ça m aide énormément ! :)
i have back issues to work so many hours
Hey David, I am an aspiring comic book colourist and I started using krita lately for my pieces. But I am really struggling with the resolution settings. You see the artworks that I colour must go for printing. So it would really help if you could make a video or reply to this comment. Thank you and I really like everything about your channel.
Hey, if you require an absolute answer to a resolution of something that should go printed ; the best isto get the exact value from your printer. If you don't have a printer yet; you can guess-timate it by getting a little bit higher than the output (it can't hurt, except your performance). The basic here for the european comic size (hardcover, tall books) would be a A4@300ppi (2480x3508px), but if you can go up to that, it would only help your comic (maybe you'll get one of this rare printer able to do 450ppi? maybe a panel can be spread online as a wallpaper later?). In my case, I found right now my sweet spot at 3600px large. It's really large, but I already got an exhibition from a gallery where they printed the pages as posters, and it really did help to get details.
hello. wich digital tablets do y recomend ?
hey david - could you possibly share your perspective line files?
pretty please? as a xmas present? :D
Hi can I ask how to make a speed painting video. I been using Linux for over 2 years but I struggle to do video editing. And I wonder how you record, speed up the footage and export, as I found that each of these steps are super slow
Hey, it is! It takes hours of editing... But it is way easier nowadays than it was when I started in 2009 to record on Linux.
1) Record your desktop with OBS
2) (optional) preaccelerate your video segment with ffmpeg command line. This allows to not keep hours of sources (for later ease to archive, no need to keep all real time).
3) Edit with Kdenlive (title/intro/ending/soundtrack). It has a speed up feature for clip.
Hey david, just wondering could you make a short video or just reply to this comment regarding what hardware you use?/advise for someone wanting to do a similar style of digital art? Ie. Are you on laptop/Mac/pc/tablet? Etc. Thanks for the help. Keep drawing brother
Hey, you can find on my blog www.davidrevoy.com/ what I use in details , I often write article about that. Maybe doing a video is a good idea about it, but I still take more than two days to produce a video (1 day recording/writing, one day editing and uploading) and it's hard to manage with the production of artworks on the side and life. For the big picture: I'm using a PC (AMD processor and GPU) with Kubuntu Linux 20.04 on it (operating system). I use most of the time a Intuos4 XL tablet (a regular but oversized tablet) with two monitors (a main 27inch quadHD and a 21inch 1080p for chat and ref). I connect sometime my Cintiq13HD when I feel I need to get more gestures for a sketch, or for precise line (inking). I use the Free Libre and Open Source software Krita mainly. I hope you'll find this information useful!
Yes very helpful, I appreciate the rapid response also. Am I correct in thinking the intuos4 does not have a display but is just a blank black drawing tablet? Whereas the cintiq has a display right? I have a basic Wacom without a display and I found no screen just makes me find it hard to draw. Thx for the help
@@1Pallendrome1 Yes, true. The Intuos has no screen and Cintiq13 as an embeded 1080p one. The difficulty to draw with a tablet (without screen) is often the ratio between the surface and the monitor: a little stroke on it leads to a long stroke on the monitor. Over the last years, cheap monitors got bigger and tablet haven't really upscaled. Someone using a 10x15cm or around tablet with a 27inch monitor could experience very unpleasant control (very soap-ish). Tablet with monitor are always 1:1 : the surface has same size than monitor; and that's what make them better device to control lines. But here, I prefer the tablet without screen so I took the largest one I could to get my hands movement registered with the most details. I have a good level of accuracy with that while getting other advantage: easier access to keyboard, no warming surface (embed monitor warms a lot). But I keep the small Cintiq13 when I really need to get more accuracy; or see my gesture. In this case, the large intuos can't really help.
Fair play, the advice and response is much appreciated :) thanks
Can you do watercolor in Krita
Hi, no software can simulate real watercolor because it involves some complex floating fluid and pigment interaction (and paper absorbtion). All the digital solution are approximations to reproduce the effects (often failing at reproducing the original fun of the process). In Krita; you'll find a category of brushes that mimic the type of rendering you can get with watercolor. But some experience with real watercolor on paper is probably the best starting point to learn what type of effect you like and select the one you want to reproduce.
Hello, what is name of the music?
It's "Leaving Home" by Kevin MacLeod, it's written on the credit at the last screen; but I'll add it to the description of the video.
Très bell illustration. Je me demande pourquoi je suis avertis pour cette vidéo 4jour après hors que j ai l avertissement ouvert désoler je perds mon français
