[tikvun]

I really like the way you use digital and traditional art i one. The result is really good keep it up!

[0115652]

Wow how amazing I tried making an art piece like that but I did not succeed. You are a true artist!

[kazanjianm]

Your kind words are very appreciated! .....What supplies did you use?

[0115652]

Well, I used: pencils, color pencils, a couple of markers, and some paint. But It was mighty hard to create a successful photo like that. I am more of a drawing person without using colors.

[studio1102artist]

Cool process!

FYI:

If you hold the "SHIFT" when you re-size the guys on the backgound fron the corner, it wont distort (get smashed in).

[TheCocodog]

That is VERY helpful!!! Is that true with both Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro? I appreciate the tip!

[1puglife]

dude that is crazy man sheesh

[Toppick33]

The process is well worth it.. I didn't think that the sketch would come out as great as they did after the different techniques you applied to it.. Looks like the kind of artwork you'd see in the Source magazine when they used to illustrate rappers.. Well done and keep up the good work.. P.E.A.C.E.

[kazanjianm]

That is great to hear! It makes me so happy that they are helping someone!

-Merrill

[therealcodymartin]

you should make a video where you demonstrate techniques with the markers and pencils and charcoal and stuff. that would be a very helpful video

[kazanjianm]

Like what skills specifically?Did you see drawing/painting a glass of water parts 1 and 2, Illustration with Markers and Color Pencils (drawing an apple) .....several more. I am more than happy to do more but I thought that I covered that....

[therealcodymartin]

no i mean like hatching crosshatching stippling shading tinting and stuff like that but with the different utensils

[kazanjianm]

No problem.....im on it! Yeah, ive never done a tutorial on stuff like that.

[therealcodymartin]
