Painting Bewitching Syndra - League of Legends Splash Art Halloween
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- It's my second time to do something for the bewitching/Halloween skinline. Also, this splash is actually the first time I would do a solo female character splash for League so I was very excited!
Out of my 6 thumbnails I did, this was the hardest to do because of the top down shot. I knew this was gonna be a nightmare in terms of perspective so I decided to do more 3D this time. I recently discovered the fish eye effect so I put it to good use here. Some parts of the 3D
didn't fit my vision so I cheated it and distorted it to my own liking even if I broke the perspective.
Thanks to the 3D I as able to focus more on the character when rendering. I had a lot of trouble balancing the VFX of the pumpkins to make them read but not overpower the image at the same time but I think we managed in the end. :)

► A splash takes 4-5 weeks. 1st week for multiple sketches. 2nd week to figure out the colors. 3rd to 5th week to render and polish.
► I paint with the canvas size 8,000 x 4,500 px but it is shrunk down to 7,000 x 3938 for final.
► This video is 40x speed up. Do the math based on this video's time. Usually, the real time is around 40-80+ hours. (if the other thumbnails were added in). Actual work hours are more than 100+ hrs when you factor in the other thumbnails, research, and contemplating time.
► The toolbar at the left side is called Lazy Nezumi. It helps me get smoother lines and have perspective guides.
► To quickly color a grayscale, I use two methods.
GRAYSCALE COLORING 1ST METHOD:
• Layer on top: The grayscale set to multiply. Brighten it up and colorize depending on the mood you want. This Acts as an AO pass.
• Layer below: Use a solid brush to paint in the flat local colors.
GRAYSCALE COLORING 2ND METHOD: (Messier)
• Layer on top: Set this layer to softlight and add in your colors. This makes it a bit look dull on the highlights so you need to manually fix the highlight colors.
• Layer below: Grayscale here.
► Tip for revisions. You can use liquify on multiple layers. Right after you do it on one layer. You can press Alt+Ctrl+F to apply it again to a different layer. Make sure not to deselect your selection if you are doing this.
► I use color dodge and sometimes linear dodge blending mode to add in lighting layers.
► I group layers using this logic:
1. Post processing
2. VFX, magic
3. Character
4. Some fog
5. Background people, elements, etc
6. Sky and far background
► Here are my tools:
2008-2020:
• Wacom Intuos 3 6″x8″
• Samsung T190
• Intel Core i7 3.50GHz, 16GB RAM, Windows 7
• Photoshop CS6, DAZ 3D, Alchemy
2021:
• XP Pen Artist 24 PRO
• Dell UltraSharp
• AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core, 32 GB RAM, Windows 10
• Force Series Gen.4 PCIe MP600 500GB NVMe M.2 SSD (this is important for faster everything)
• Photoshop CC, Daz 3D, Zbrush, Maya
► To open a second window of your artwork in Photoshop it is located in Window - Arrange - New Window.
► To temporarily convert your artwork into grayscale. Go to View - Proof Setup - Custom - Select Dot Gain 20%. Then Press Ctrl + Y to toggle this view.
► I am not going to upload longer or shorter versions of this because that takes too much of my personal time. I'm already giving this away for FREE.
Built a whole a$$ town in 3D just for the background. I can't 🙀
Might not suggest this method if you are slow in 3D. I'm already fast in modeling that is why I can afford to do this. XD
@@deivcalviz how long did it take you to learn it? Is it hard?
@@aoiken5321 i never really focused on it and i have been using it on and off for 5+ yrs. If you just focus on learning it. Just a few months to 1 yr is enough to do what i do. :)
Thank you so much for continuing with the videos. I live in Brazil and I’m from a humble family where I can’t pretty much afford a decent course for me to improve my digital art skills. Your videos are saving my life and I’ve improved SO MUCH that people around me are asking where am i leaning all that, and with huge pleasure i mention your channel. Keep blessing people, you are amazing!
💖
That's amazing to hear! Glad it has been helpful for you! I think that the great thing about self studying is that people who are really determined will really improve no matter what the circumstances are. :)
This is amazing. The way the background was done was super amazing.
whats the anime in ur pfp tempest
Where can I buy his tutorial!
@@raymondeming3528 it's written down on his description
As a Syndra fan, you nailed it perfectly! Must be her best splash. It’s so colorful and fits the thematic so well. I also really like how mature her face looks!
Thanks! Good to hear that! :)
I bought one of your tutorials and learnt so much! I think you're doing God's work by sharing your tips and process here, you rock!
Thank you so much! Hope next year i can do more and better tutorials. My last one is 1 year old already 😅
Really love the little change to make the kids happy to see her, does a lot for the mood
the fact that i said "the final piece is amazing!" and then hovered to see the time stamp and we were not even halfway in 😂
some serious talent on display, watching you model the environment has me jazzed to start a new illustration and try out my recent blender learnings.
I watch the video every time, but when I watch the process, I see a lot of effort.
I respect you.
I’ve watched your video from 10 years ago all the way to your latest, which gives me a insight thought on how the hell people who is talented as you still get a small amount of followers, and the fact that you still uploading these amazing time lapse video for free just had me WOW. You’re such a talent and low key human being.
I lost it when he started to play Solitaire with his layers 😂
Awesome work man!
Thank you so much for always uploading these videos for free, they are really great to study and satisfying to watch!
Cannot say thank you enough for posting these videos. I watch your process constantly and pick up new info each time. Learning from your videos has really helped me!
Spectacular work! Thank you also for such a great breakdown in the description. It was so interesting to see how you composed the scene in 3D, and I never knew about Lazy Nezumi... omg!!
The other interesting observation I had was that the piece was more or less conceptually "complete" by 20m in to the video, and the remainder of the time was just lots and lots and lots and LOTS of rendering. A-ma-zing. Thank you again for generously sharing your process.
Cannot thank you enough for sharing your process, your tools and your experience! From this video alone I've learned about 8 different methods that I can't wait to try in my own work!
Your art is really insane... When people say "your art is on whole different level"... this is what they should refer too.
Your transparency and details about your process in the description are fascinating. Because sometimes when looking at timelapse I thought the process was quick.. Turns out it's 100+ hours 🙃
Yeah, splashes are crazy to do! That's why only a few artists "survive" this grueling process lol... But considering it is 25 days of work.. I think it's not bad to use 100+hrs.
@@deivcalviz damn 25 days... that's consistency right there. I wonder (if you're allowed and want to disclose this) but how much did you get paid for this? per hour or once the image was done?
@@nicolashosea cant tell anything about that. I recommend searching for Karla Ortiz's art rates.. she has a good grasp on the industry rates.
@@deivcalviz thanks for the reply and the video. I can only afford a subscription and likes on each video I've seen.
I love character designing and illustration and this literally blew my mind!!! I could never 😭
It’s mind blowing how easily you draw the anatomy and perspective 😭😭😭
ANOTHER AWESOME PIECE LETSGOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
The background perspective is so amazing!
I always wanted to create something similar and realistic at the same time. And now I know how!
Thank you very much
MY GOODNESS! THIS IS GOD MODE!
You're not human, this is crazy 😍😍
Man this channel literally value gold,
😱 thanks for sharing this for free!❤️
i love how the children in costumes went from scared to happy lol
Your lighting skills is on another level. Great work
Another incredible splash art, the details of yours splash arts are the masterpiece, the greatest ones in my opinion.
Wow! This is amazing. I will study this for sure. I'd love to work for Riot at some point and paint splasharts. Thank you for putting this out for everyone! I should make notes haha
Thanks for always posting these man, nice to see the whole process.
Wonderful artwork. I was moved by the detail-up process.
Love it! These full process vids are amazing!
Great stuff! Seeing the process of all these amazing pieces is so fascinating and inspiring!
Great artwork Man, definitely one of my favourites, really love it deiv, congrats for the piece 🎃🔥
I wonder how many different references and how much time you spent doing this amazing piece of art. Awesome!!!!
lots and lots of references. and 5 weeks to do this. Check the FAQ for more info :)
@@deivcalviz 5 straight weeks of working or 5 weeks of working with breaks on them? 😱
@@punpudle8865 just like a regular job. Around 9am to 5pm in the weekdays only. I also do art direction for other artists. Maybe around 5 hrs a day for the splash illustration.
I love the movement you have created. Awesome work :D
This is such a great video! Thank you for that, and all the work you have put into it and the artwork. I will definitely check out your tutorials, cause they are exactly what I have been looking for, this kind of coloring and style and since I'm a newcomer to the scene, they are pretty much life savers (it is really difficult to find appropriate courses which would aim specifically to these kind of artworks to the point where I pretty much gave up, and I have to improve myself through watching these kind of videos, which are by the way great addition). Big thanks!
I watched and sometimes couldn't breathe because was so excited 😍
BOWWWW giant, amazing very amazing
I in my absolute numbskullness thought you did all this work in under an hour I forget the concept of a timelapse exist.
those were some solid 3d skills btw!
Your content is amazing! I love your work.
His layers management is sick 😱
splash art artists really can make a skin, im not gonna lie, I have gotten skins simply just because of their splash arts.
I learned something by seeing the description itself THANK YOU :)
New Deiv video, thats a great way to start the day :D
Dangg ill try to be first next time ahaha thank sir deiv ❤️
@Jhay Art Pinoy ako :D
Riot better pay you well! Hope your back doesn't hurt from that many hours at the tablet all day.
Thanks for the detailed FAQ answers. Really helpful
Man i can never be as good as you. You are so talented
I'm charmed for your processe!!!
this man is solocarrying all riot
oh so much amazing i enjoyed everything . thanks for sharing 🥰🥰
Amazing work as always man !!! thanks so much for sharing ! really awesome to see!!
Your work is always amazing. I still wonder how you get the good dynamic poses idea for the thumbnails sketch
To get that skill you need to draw a lot! Also get tons of references like comic poses, photos, toys, etc. I've have also done hundreds of poses to practice before. Its one of the hardest steps in this illustration and most people overlook it but im glad you noticed! :)
@@deivcalviz I've learned a lot from you, thanks for the tips.
My favorite champ draw for my favorite artist!!
Great work Deiv!! Love your splashes!!!!
I love the arts of an hour
Thanks for sharing these Deiv! Really helpful videos
Wow! Splendid! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
How many times have I seen you use 3d in your paintings but I still can't stop being surprised about it. i really really like it !!
How can I learn how to apply 3d to painting?
There are tons of free tutorials in youtube. The important thing you need to know is to learn how to do basic modeling, learn how to add basic textures, basic lighting and just render it. After that, I just paint on top of it and treat it like a sketch.
You can check out gumroad tutorials of artists such as Maciej Kuciara, John Sweeney, Jan Urschel, Ben Mauro, Nick Gindraux, Marek Okon. They all use 3D for artworks
I think I will learn a lot from this sharing.
Tysm @Deiv Calviz
How many years have you been drawing I want to be so good like this one day.it's beautiful
I have been working in the game industry for around 10yrs already 🙂 im sure people can reach my level faster these days because of all the available knowledge.
Im super excited because im buying one of your tutorials soon! I almost can afford it after saving a little bit of money
YAYYYY so excited to watch
You're a great illustrator. I admire your art, process and the videos you post. It helps me a lot to achieve my personal artistic goals!! I hope to become someone like you! :)
super amazing so satisfying to watch
I really appreciate your skills , amazing art :))
If you don’t mind me asking, where did you get the poseable 3D figure that you used for the 3D portion of your process? Did you download/purchase it from somewhere or is it your own model that you made yourself for your own use? Thank you so much for sharing your process. I especially love the bits where you used 3D to help develop your final composition. As an illustrator who recently learnt 3D modeling, this was especially great to see how you use your 3D skills to aid with your illustrative work. Amazing!
I used the free models from daz3d. They can be imported to Maya or blender. :)
@@deivcalviz Thank you so much for answering my question and for the tip :D
Lot of Work!
thats amazing
Before watching this video, I opened a box in LoL and got this skin xD, great job as always!
Cool! Congrats! :)
Wonderful job! I've always wanted to work at RIot Games as an artist but im still learning to be better.
i love these videos ! such an inspiration.
this drawing is so beautiful holy shit
Insane work so much modelisation
straight fire🔥 can you recommend an online tutorial/course about 3D? im so in love with your works:)

Ahhhhh so amazing!!!😍 I wanna learn how to do splash arts but my skills are so weak:( I wanna be like you someday...
Yes dooodddd!!!!!!!!!!
This motivates me to improve more! The goal has been set 😆
Thank you very much for you job and motivation for grow up.
BEAUTIFUL work! :)
so much work added in it ... jesus.. from where do you find that patience ?
thank you for sharing. Didn't pay attention that it's done by one person. I thought it's studio or something. LOL
your art is so inspiring! thanks for sharing
Woooow!
soo coool!! It's awesome!
Incredible!
This is amazing!
Beautifull piece again ! I learn many things when i watch your video 🙏 did you use basic brush or custom ?
Wow, i love your art work
WAOUUUUU ♥♥♥♥
Amazing work!
monster!
Thanks for another masterpiece🙂
perfect as always 💯
i know why those kids are so happy
Haha 🤣
Love your work man! Do you paint using procreate as well ? Or just photoshop?
its giving blair from soul eater!!!
Hello I'm a big fan of your works!!! I just wanted to ask what course in college would be best for illustrators like you while also learning 3d and little bit of animation in the Philippines? Also that thing you did with the details near then ending part amazed me how did you do that!?? I hope you make more updated tutorials with hidden tools in photoshop that we don't usually use! Thank you so much for uploading your works!!
Thanks! I studied Multimedia Arts in Benilde in the PH but my digital painting skills are mostly self taught. I don't have an idea on the available courses these days so I cannot recommend any specific but so long as it is about art, I think it will be useful to your career.
Not sure about the final details you mention. Maybe that is just a photo texture? Or maybe some brush textures overlayed?
@@deivcalviz Thank you so much for the reply!! Here is the timestamp of what I mentioned 1:01:53 I just don't know what it's called but it's really amazing!! I hope I'll be able to choose the right course for college also one question did Multimedia Arts teach most of the stuff too that you need in your career? Or being self taught is better cause you learning on your own is insane!
insane wtfffffffff u r my god
Let's goooooo!
Omg I can´ty imagine how many hours took you for doing this, it's amazing!
Its in the description. He said splahs arts takes months to finish depending on how complex the illustrations.
