it feels like it was yesterday when I first watched this video, and now I'm coming back and watching it again and it all feels so different, looking at the same things but with a diff skill level and better understanding, I can see so many things I missed back then, feels almost like I'm rediscovering my roots lol but really, I hadn't realized almost 6 years had passed :0 I miss Dave content
You've totally inspired me .. I have wondered if going from greyscale would make my pieces stronger and now I'm just gonna do it... Thank you! Loved seeing the finished piece...
I watched several grayscale to color tutorials by now but this one is a little different, I especially liked how you used those saturated reds in the beginning
aweeeeesssoooommmeeeeee!!!!
my fav. technique so far....
im definitely sticking witht this guy
WOW thank you for this video, I had no idea how I could do this and was twisting myself into a knot trying to figure it out. The grayscale to overlay/multiply color to develop the color spectrum and staying true to warm/cool light is now clear for me because of your video. THANK YOU!!!!!!
hey Dave, i love your videos! really enjoy drawing with you and my drawing on procreate really improved through your tipps
Woww beautiful
Reminds me of Ra's Al Ghul. It's awesome man.
Joe Bingley also Galahad from order 1886
Fantastic Dave! Your pickle watermark reminds me of when you mentioned on stream submitting a piece to client with one in there that they couldn't quite get on board with XD
Thanks Mikey! And thanks for checking out my new youtube content! You are a major inspiration to me to take the channel seriously, and keep content coming
you have no idea how helpful you are, thank you so much for doing this 💖
Thankyou for the brushes paps
Being able to see the blending process was really awesome. I find videos like these very generous - thanks for your time and efforts.
no
I think i am in love with your channel and teaching techniques. Definitely sticking to your channel. I hope you never stop teaching us
Thank you for these tutorials Dave and for your brushes! I cant wait to give this sketch i started a full B&W paint and then colour this way. You're awesome man, keep it up!
Thanks for the brushes Dave. Awesome.
Thanks for having the time to do these tutorials for us! :)
Absolutely!
Got that notification bell on red alert for your videos.
ha awesome!
@@DaveGreco Me too, I love this kind of video, so much things to learn!
hes coming for you, hes coming to draw
This is really helpful! I honestly would gladly watch the whole thing without the timelapse since each part is so significant for me to learn. I really hope to improve my style significantly with your content, good work with the tutorial, you are so helpful and informative, thank you!
I was waiting for this part for the whole week !! I couldn’t wait any longer ... thanks for this I really find ur vids really helpful
Thanks so much! I am hoping to get production quality higher and higher, and hopefully get more and more info into these
Just starting on my Digital Drawing journey. Thanks for the brushes download. Really kind of you to help all. :-)
I'm so excited that I found your channel just yesterday. Looking forward to where this series goes!
Glad to have ya! :)
Beautiful ♥️ your video is very helpful for me. Thank you so much 🙏♥️♥️♥️
Thanks!
I love to put on one of your videos like this and draw alongside you. Your voice is incredibly soothing and I relate hard to your process of finding the artwork in the canvas. Helps me feel better about my learning journey. Thank you for your content!
Love the tutorial Dave! Also a tip on the bracket keys, you can easily change the brush size by holding Alt while dragging Right Click to scale brush sizes more fluidly! I usually make a custom key on Wacom that does Modifier Alt + RClick into one button (I replace Middle Click in Photoshop) so I can change sizes much much faster.
wow awesome tip thanks a bunch!
thanks for showing us your perspective on this!
no
DG main is my favourite brush. I use it in everything-- including eraser sometimes!
the chilli con carne was hot aswell
thank you for sharing this video, Dave. I am just starting to pick interest in concept art and I think this is a good start
Hi Dave. Just want to say thanks so much for your videos. Just recently came across your channel and I must say your vids are just fantastic to learn from and they are a joy to watch for someone like myself. I've always wanted to illustrate stuff like what you are doing but the way things have worked out in my life that hasn't been altogether possible. That's not to say I've given up on it but there are many challenges in front of me. Keep on going with this channel because it's a great inspiration. Cheers!
Really enjoying these, esp since I can't make the stream very often.
im not
amazing tutorial, thank you so much ☺️
I like very much your work and the tutorial videos help a lot, please do more ! :D
More coming! :)
Thank you for your time and talent, the character looks awesome! And it was so useful to watch and listen to the video! Great job!
Thanks so much!
Wow this was awesome man! Thank you so much!
Glad you dug it!
If I just can press the like button more than once :'D
This was so incredibly helpful!!! Thank you for doing this
Yay thanks for checking it out! :)
This REALLY helped me thank you! Pieces always make more sense to me when I work in greyscale first, but I’ve been avoiding it because every time I add color I’ve only been using one layer. 🤦🏻♀️ I’m like- wth this looks really bad... Lol I’m excited to experiment with multiple additive layers and layer modes now >:D I don’t have photoshop unfortunately but I do have Procreate which should work fine. 😊
Man amazing! you're awesome! You're becoming in my favorite youtuber!! thanks for lessons
That means so much to me! Already planning new content to record on saturday!
Good job! I'll also comment on the previous video.
you are soooo Bob Ross which I love, if more people listened to you there were be no more war.....
Loving your videos and all the tips ! Awesome work !
PS: This character reminds me Ra's Al ghul from batman
I could see that, and thanks for checking it out!
!!! i had spent my whole life doing digital art and I went to art school for a couple of years and I had to learn how to do oil painting. I was like... I don't even know how to mix a colour, i don't know anything about brushes.... but after a while i started to get it. colour mixing and matching, not blending straight onto the canvas but trying to colour match and put it down in blocks of colour before doing more details and layers. and it's really helped me with my digital art. it's like my digital art background helped with oils, and then my oils helped with my digital. I definitely take so many techniques from my oil paintings and put them into my digital :P so I'd say to you - if you want to play around and have fun, try doing some oil painting sometime!!! you might surprise yourself :P
Thats awesome! I actually grew up.. and even in artschool, oil painted. Oil was my go to medium before moving into digital art.. if I ever paint traditionaly these days its with oil. by far my favorite! It would be great to spend more time in it for sure. thanks for checking out the content!
Really awesome vid!
Damn so helpful and awesome. I love the channel
uncomfortably long hugs for the brushes
hey :) I really love these tutorials! could you make one about how you use reference pictures? or maybe how you establish the composition of your pieces...
That went from death knight to earth kingdom elder quite rapidly lol
Fantastic! I love your art! one question: is there in the brush set the Plastic wrap brush?
old man's got the lashes of a prom queen
Dude thank you so much!! I've been struggling with color for a while now and this is really helpful! I love all your tutorials and speed paintings. In your next videos would you think of doing a "Creature design tutorial"?
no
Hey, man. Just heard that you're constantly using your fingers on the Brush size keys ( [ and [ ), there's a shortcut in Photoshop that a real small group of people know that helps you increase and decrease the brush size - Hold ALT + right button mouse and drag left to right for size and up and down for softness. I think that you might find that useful
How to really start doing this such magnificent things, can anyone provide a road map. I really want to learn, as a part of my hobby.
Hey Dave, great tutorial. Where do I find your brush packs?
Love Your tutorials and Your painting style
no
WOAH!
I love your works! If not a secret, what kind of brushes do you use? I really admired your artistic creations.
subscribed :)
I see other artists color from greyscale with other layer modes like color, overlay, and multiply. Whats the difference with them?
What makes a concept art different than "art"? I realize it's not "finished art"but in many cases, concept art looks finished and has a specific feel or style on it's own (like finished art). I guess that's why I ask the question.
Hello. Have you ever tried Krita, and if so, what do you think about it? Thank you.
This video was so hard to find... could you make a comment, or put a link to this video in the description of part 1? I just randomly found this 4 days after watching part 1
I wish we could see his keyboard at the same time
👏👏👏👏
This is probably a long shot idk if you still reply to comments on older videos, but would this technique work for an environment piece? I'm working on one for my coursework at the minute, and i've started drawing it in grey scale for the values and stuff, but I'm trying to figure out if I could then colour it later?
where can we get that plastic wrap brush???
What do you press to change the size of the brush? I heard you tapping on your keyboard when you did it. I do it manually right now. Sorry, I'm new to this
aww damn, the plastic wrap brush that you use isn't in the version of you brushes that I have
That looks like Merlin from toa
Thank you so much for your videos. I'm a new sub. I'm excited to try out this technique, you make it so clear to understand. I noticed you often mention jumping around the piece, so everything stays consistent. I'm curious, do you make a new layer everytime you add details? Like, do you ever go back to a previous layer and work on it? Do you designate layers for certain techniques? Do you ever merge layers that use similar techniques? I know I'm super late to comment, but if anyone can answer this for me? Thank you!
Thanks so much and welcome! I will try to answer these questions in the morning! all great questions!
i want your green foul and swine samuel
He's abou to say something like: "I don't say this oftenly, kiddo... So listen well, this is kinda impressive"
x)
ha awesome :)
i want your boyfriend
Very nice artwork.. Question; How do you flip the canvas quickly from side to side.. do you have a shortcut key or something? Thanks for sharing
Yep! You can set up your own hotkey for it at edit - keyboard shortcuts - image - image rotation - flip canvas horizontal (then set it to what you want).
Nice tutorials! Can i get your brush pack? Want to try...
Its in the description :)
TY, my mistake
Is the Brush pack free?
First off -- this is a great series, I absolutely adore peering into the process of other artists! But I gott ask... you're on a Cintiq... is it the large monitor sized one with no express keys?? Just wondering since when I work on my 13HD out on the road, I use the express keys for Brush sizing, undos, and the main mods Alt/Shift/Control :) esp useful in 3D-Coat, Sketchbook and of course Photoshop :)
The one I use at home does have the express keys.. and I used to use the express keys for alot of things.. including making new layers.. fav brushes etc. Lately though I don't even use them.. Mostly because my work cintiq doesn't have them (its one of the newer ones).. so I am used to not using it at this point. Def worth using though if you're used to it! Thanks for checking out the channel! :)
How did you get that plastic wrap brush? I would love to be able to use it
is it recommended to start with this grayscale technique in all illustrations? I wanted to start practicing this technique, so every illustration I'm going to make starts with grayscale, right?
Hi Dave! Sorry for bothering, but I didn't found the Plastic Wrap Brush you use to block colors (i.e. in the B&W Stage) and I couldn't find them online. I noticed they are in another folder within your brushes (the name is sDaniele_core_01, I believe). Is it possible to make this brush avaliable too? Thanks and I love your work! Learning really much with your channel!
Hey there! Working on getting approval to share that brush since It's not mine (given by a co-worker).. and I need to make sure it's not a professional brush from another artist that may be possibly be selling it you know? If I do make it avail I'll def bring it up in a future video.
Would this method work for coloring landscapes ?
Glazing Technique...
This guy reminds me of a general.
Hey Dave! I struggle to do any sort of digital drawing or painting without being heavily reliant on line art. While I like the look of a lot of work that is very line-heavy, I don't want to have a comic book style of art. Do you have any tips for going from line art to a finished painting with no lines?
I know it's late but you still might see this. I was a lot like you before. And I didn't want line art so I did some research on how to paint. A RUclips channel called Aaron's Design class really helped me.
Specifically his basic rendering video
Do you use a table to paint on or use only the mouse?
Are you always zoomed out from the piece like this?
Yeah I'll zoom in when I am working alot of detail.. but for this piece it felt like I wanted to see the entire piece.. and didn't have to go super detailed with it.
Have you experimented with using the navigator? I find having it as a little thumbnail in the corner helps you keep track of the overall feel while you're zoomed in
did you share the brush?
I'm pretty new here but did you draw this with a mouse? And if not, is it possible to draw digital art with a mouse? Thanks
It would be very difficult, you don't have any where near as much control
Hi ... DG_Main brush I downloaded seems much more texured than the one you use in the video. Is this the right brush you are using here (diamond icon)
thanks
carlo
no
hi
@3:37 did u use a plugin to sort your brushes into categories/groups?
Thanks
Photoshop CC has folder brushes. I use a different method and manually sort them and make divider text brushes like "PAINT" for painting "CLOUD" etc. Like this ruclips.net/video/iipUPpCFGYg/видео.html
Why not name him Greyson? He looks like a wizard
