Speed Painting in Corel Painter: Elliott Smith

[Majora99]

Do any of you reckon I should paint my bedroom wall with the Figure 8 spirals

[Hickorychiclets]

@mistatumnus dang. That's a bummer. good vid, though.

[Hickorychiclets]

Why not an Elliott Smith song for this vid?

[mistatumnus]

@Hickorychiclets It was originally one of his songs from Roman Candle, but the record company cracked down on me. Wah wah...

[DarthSaigon]

Wow.

[hugoleonardoag]

Fantastic!

[bringbackthe1960sppl]

that was just amazing man!!! thanks for cheering me up on a sick day lol

[kep909]

ЗАЕБИСЬ ВАЩЕ!!!!!))))))))))))))

[Ranitoboy]

totally awesome... it looks almost like a photograph

[otaku8489]

Really nice work, would have liked to see you do the original sketch too, but good stuff!

[Zejex15]

It's called "Gimp", the program.

[Epyksen]

@Zejex15 dude its corel painter. it even says so in the title lol -.-

[Emsworthdude1]

Brilliant, totally amazing, I loved this video the software looks difficult to use but I am sure with practice it becomes fun.

[indigomontoyaa]

hey what tool are you using when you sort of blur the lines for shading... when you scribble a little white and then blur it for shading?

[MCoA4ever]

You have quite the talent. And good taste in music. Although the thumbnail made it look like Q Tip from ATCQ. I think the nose might be too big.

[hatchface]

sweet man.

[aihlo]

cool!

[Archigearour]

I'm a budding illustrator and I've just got my own Wacom and copy of Corel, really like your work.

Just wondering, how much time dyou spend practicing?

[aKitten123]

you can never spend too much practicing In fact he was practicing while making this.

[mistatumnus]

Honestly I have always drawn for pleasure since a child. I am now 21 and I draw a lot less now that I don't have high school art classes or college classes. I would agree with aKitten though, you cannot ever practice enough. As one of my favorite artists said it so well:

"Have no fear of perfection, you will never reach it."

[chewykiller]

what brush is this?

[mistatumnus]

@chewykiller Airbrush mostly I believe.

[Nogert]

I had ago at this program ages ago, but I found it really hard to use, same with most programs I try do you have any tips if I were to try again?

[SOxBExNOxFEAR]

photoshop is actually pretty good if you look into a lot of tutorials on youtube

a good series of ps tutorials is mydamnchannel's you suck at photoshop

[Dave51262]

Cool. Is that guy's nose really that big though? Keep the artwork coming. It is really great to see and you have great talent.

[LoCkYdOgGy]

man, it wuz so nice... i wish i could paint like u

[RxBandits9]

what brush and what settings do you use to paint the white and black? do you brush and then use the blender to smudge it all smoothly?

[mistatumnus]

yes i use airbrushes and a blender tool.

[fvredendaal]

Very good !!!!!

[H4L4LY]

wow...very nice...i like its

[paulartist]

lol your vid has a case of msn popups in bottum right corner :P

[jeremyxross]

this is absolutely beautiful.

[snokin]

yeah ~! great work!!

[SacredOreo]

awesome! lol @ the msn alert popping up

[mistatumnus]

The songs are

1. Tomorrow Tomorrow

2. Roman Candle

[bacardi119]

What are the name of the songs??

[Licronthoup]

how long did it take you to learn to draw like this?

[harrr521]

Good work.

[noname180795]

nice

[darwal]

Beautiful work dude. Really makes me want to draw something which is always a good sign.

(ps. can't believe some of these obnoxious comments. Chill out people!)

[urawaste]

Very Tight! Great Work!!!

[sjamanra]

This is very easy to do. Its several layots up on each other (!) and he just make it looks like REAL drawing, when its just "an eraser" to let the under pic (which already was made like a hoax) come visual mixed with his so-called "drawing". And it look FANTASTIC! Keep up the good work! ;0)

[bartae]

L  L

[bartae]

realy bealtiful! finaly a great soundtrack in this kind of video.

[brunox123]

what program use ?

[bubbaUK]

Dont you understand simple english???? He said corel painter!! Read comments!

[alexandroschm]

maybe not everyone is from uk or america

[forgottenflight]

corel painter idk the version though

[SirKnowItall]

read the title : COREL PAINTER I am guessing this is corel painter essentials 3 or later.

[bucka1912]

Not essentials. I think Corel Painter IX or X

[mistatumnus]

This is on Corel Painter IX

[superzaff]

IVery nice.I have painter 8 btw,did you just airbrushed it?And with how many layers you worked with.thsf

[mistatumnus]

Two layers. Its all black and white airbrush. No eraser.

[larua0816]

Fantastic.

[DESiSjADES]

just a question:

is it possible that this is time lapse ??

[NeccoWecco]

it is time lapsed

[mistatumnus]

Yes it is. I wish i could paint that fast.

[goodcopbadcopUSA]

He said he wished he could paint this fast, yes it is time lapsed, he's using corel Painter X Two Layers with the AirBrush Black & white this is a great program, Corel Painter Painter 4 comes with the Bamboo Tablet and makes you eligable for upgrade to Painter 10 which can be baught on eBay for around $40.00 regular $199.00

[mistatumnus]

Thanks. What he said. ^^^^ Hahah

[Rooke4Chess]

I think you do a great job, I've been playing with this program for a while, is there a way to set a picture under a layer and sketch off of it, something like a trace layer, I like this program more than photoshop but there is less training for corel you should put something together

[manstrone]

Yes there is and that's just what mistatumnus did.Please avoid this method.Learn to draw,that way your picture will have a spark of life.This way you are just like filter in photoshop,only human.

[manstrone]

This was answer for Rooke4Chass

[mistatumnus]

@manstrone, I totally agree with you.

@Rooke4Chess, learn to draw classically, don't trace. Its been 6 years since I did this piece. Figure drawing classes are the best way to truly learn. Once you learn to take something that is in the real world and block it out on paper in seconds you will find you have a unique style. Tracing will never treat you well and will stifle your creativity.

[JessicaSue]

Wowwy!

[SylasGreen]

this is incredible. but do you always use the airbrush tool for everything? if your edges were sharper it'd be perfect. camel hair brush tool is good for that. but hell, I can't speedpaint like you do.  great work.

[sayyes4334]

That was good.

[hserokdivad]

aweseome. except his face looks a bit blotchy. but besides that, omg :O

[tubeeorrnottubee]

WoW! THIS really seems to take more patience than if you were just plain painting it OFF the computer! The rick texture you ultimately create is truly amazing!

Thanks for showing us your magic touch!:)

[cocoly1907]

not bad,,more practise,it'd get better

[frogman78]

that's awesome

[ervin2]

thats insane man...

but I think you put too much emphasis on the mouth area...not that I could do anything nearly that amazing...

[das4058]

Cool Good job.

[roban8]

Awesome.

[Itadakiman]

this is fucking amazing!!
