Lets CG (draw) Tewi! [1/2]

[kaorulover16]

oAo all on smoothing 1....wow......i have to have it so s-7 DX

[GaelleAnthony]

How do you thin out the line art like that ? :O And how can you change the line art color ?

[Hijinadori]

Very talented!!! I couldn't do that, i get to lazy and all i want to do is finish, then i get crappy with it, but you are very thorough all the way through, i like it :)

[ZetsuDominates]

5 hours?

Oh please. That would take me days. Just because I wouldn't be able to keep at something like that until I finished it.

You are amazing.

[kunoichi4679]

NAMIE KUN I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD A YOUTUBE * A *

[CHocoCablesRevisited]

what you did there,is MAGIC

[cookie8angel]

How do you get that light box effect? and i see that most people have thier tools set up like yours, how do i get it like that? 

[MiniGiraffeIggy]

what program is this? :(

[dinosaurcow]

@MiniGiraffeIggy paint tool sai

[ninjaslovedonuts21]

O WOW WHAT SIZE OF CANVAS YOU USE!?!?!??!

[kbar2009]

How did you thin out the line art like that? I saw you did something with it, but I couldn't catch exactly what.

[Jaespirit]

@kbar2009 I think its that her canvas size is so big that most of the lines come out really thin, and then she colours it then resizes it. But that's just what I think - it may also be that she colours the lines to make it only slightly darker than the colour on the inside, making it seem like the colours just blend into the line or so that it doesnt look as thick. But that's just meeee...

[Jaespirit]

@kbar2009 ...Or she may have erased the lines or lowered opacity. ahahah;;; sorry for my confusing answer(s) ! ! !

[Luckywerty]

@kbar2009 on a linework layer, there is the pressure option. you click it, and you draw your mouse/tablet and it will make it thicker or thinner.

[PlienxXxPandaSmiles]

@kbar2009 She probably has a graphic tablet.. it works with pressure.. the more you press down the graphic pen the thicker the line turnes out.. she probably just takes away some pressure ate the end of each line

[crzykd1305]

you make it look so easy! but anyone whos attempted a fully rendered CG character knows otherwise... best i've done is a cell shaded sonic the hedgehog XD

[MsDreamer127]

why do I feel oddly depressed after watching this..?

But that was amazing o.o you're really good :D

[TheSweetKiwi]

how long have you been using sai? has it given you a virus?

[iSazzify]

@TheSweetKiwi Sai is virus free, don't worry :)

[MirrePPP]

@iSazzify dude, all art programs are virus free - until someone decides to add a virus to it. Sai can get viruses just like any other program. If you wanna make sure it's 100% virus-free, then you buy the program from the company.

[iSazzify]

@MirrePPP I was replying to someone who asked if the program was virus free. And yes, I mean the official version from the company.

[extrememonaXXX]

wow ur really good at LINEART! i mean, i thought ur using a cyntiq(or any other direct to screen drawing shit) but woah, now i feel pumped up! it means that its not impossible whatsoever to actually be good drawing awesome lineat without those direct to screen drawing thingy like cyntiq.

[Pelic0ne]

May I ask about how long you spent on that picture?

[extrememonaXXX]

@Pelic0ne 5 hours.. dude 0:05 she already stated it.

[Pelic0ne]

@extrememonaXXX

Thanks. I skipped that because of the annoying noise at start.

[Tornonelloceano]

@Pelic0ne It says in the beggining: 5 hours

[Yuuize]

The first song, I want it. TELL ME WHAT IT'S CALLED!

[JTHMShmee]

the hair was blue then brown...can someone pls tell me how she did it...pls?

[Lufflable]

@JTHMShmee She was using the magic wand tool to select it, then she filled it in with the colour.

[UnTatooSurMonQ]

SO PROOOOO >o<

[TinaMinna290]

0:06 The 2 Tewi's here are also very kawaii ^_^

[PupusKun]

woahhhhhhhhh you just make this look SOOOOO easy man! i love this ever so much, but i can't even make a frill perfect like that to save my life let alone color it! =OOOOO

[anikawright]

this is so cute what kind of tablet did you use?

[JadeEmbodient]

wait i dont get it u re color the lineart?

[numbuh53]

@JadeEmbodient The first lineart was the sketch. She makes it transparent and redraws the lineart much neater.

[realSOnoYa]

song list please? XD

[SnowGodess83]

@elichizu oh okay thank you for the info :D much appreciated

[Misspet13]

here's the song.. i'm guessing? watch?v=Qq_DaF_Wpq8

[Misspet13]

@Misspet13 NVM. That's just one of the songs used for the remix. sorry i tried.. XDDD;

[SnowGodess83]

I know you probably get asked this a lot but where did you find Sai with all the tools included because I honestly have no luck so far. If you could please tell me that would be great and if I sound like I'm forcing you to answer, I'm not and I'm sorry > x <`. If you would tell me where you found the complete sai that would be great and this picture of tewi is beautiful, love it :D!

[xLiiLxDANNiix]

Also, could you pleaseplease say what settings your brushes are at? :D brush and airbrush and such

[xLiiLxDANNiix]

Huh, your Sai is translated differently? eg. "smoothing" instead of "stabiliser", "wet edge" instead of "fringe"

[asuchuu2]

what program do you use to record the screen?

and if you use livestream procaster, how do you upload to youtube, sorry i sound so stupid. xD

[drawnicon]

so if you don't use the lineart how does it have lines? like err idk how to ask this :c ...how do you make your outlines like that? .... ~__~

[TheDreamPanda]

Errr This is a stupid question: What exactly does CG mean? ^^'

[AtomicLithium]

@TheDreamPanda to draw using the aid of a computer

[TheDreamPanda]

@AtomicLithium SO CG is just drawing digitally? ._.

[AtomicLithium]

@TheDreamPanda yeah pretty much :3

[ILoveAnime1527]

SOOOO BEAUTIFUL!! Your style is soo cute<3 <3 and the way you color is simply gorgeous!

[Keitchez]

como aprendiste?

[shivers1231]

HOLY SHIT.

[norikara]

What settings do you have for the pen tool? I'd love to know! :D

[numbuh53]

Could someone post the names of this songs in this? >_< I know it credits them at the beginning but I can't really understand it.

[SurferGirl058]

i totally love the way you draw and color, it looks so dreamy:)

[xreverserain]

I wish I could draw like this :)

[kittyzoey22]

What do the sets do?Please Respond

[Mikiglaceon]

ZOMG ITS SO FLUFFY I THINK I COULD DIEEEEE.....Pro!??

[Ayako1997]

OMG >W<

you don't use many lines in the hair while linearting but it looks so damn smooth!! nice job! :D

[ssel3Eless]

soooooooooooooooo cute !!!! ♥♥♥ 

[animekittywon1]

what do you use to record yourself drawing?

[Ayako1997]

@animekittywon1 hypercam. It's written in the begining of the video btw '.'

[animekittywon1]

@Ayako1997

whoops sorry didnt notice and thanks

[NekoNekoKitty7]

asdfghjkl;;; NAMIE YOU ARE SO PROOOOO <3

[KtulusWrath]

what do you use for the shading?

[carrotsNcrispies]

@KtulusWrath i think its brush tool

[XAnimeHolicX]

ooo how do you make your lines so clean? O_O

[FoxxFire55]

How do you select those specific areas and color just there? It was represented by a blue overlay, I believe.

[carrotsNcrispies]

@FoxxFire55 the select tool which looks like the wand underneath the colour wheel, usually it only selects what yu have on that layer but if yu set it to all image (which is underneath all the pen/colouring tools, when yu have selected the wand tool) and it doesnt really work if yu just use the select tool without a lineart covering the edges of the selection because when yu colour and then get rid of the selection (blue stuff >XD) then the edges of the colouring just looks horrible :(

[Mikugumii]

Now that's what I call having skill with sai!

[SazzaliciousVids]

Your talent amazes me :D

I hope my skills develop like yours have .-.

[SpeedyCheeto]

Did you just make the lineart very opaque when you were coloring? I'm confused as to what you did.. ;o

[carrotsNcrispies]

@SpeedyCheeto she changed the opacity so that the lineart is lighter and i guess she did it because it makes the whole picture look a bit lighter ^^;

[SpeedyCheeto]

@carrotsNcrispies oh okay XD bahaha I'm a n00b.

[mewmewcaroline]

Hey Namie! Do you know how to get the pen tool on the normal layer set instead of the linework layer set? I hate drawing on my linework layer and I love the pen tool but I can't...figure out how to move the tool to my regular layer tools list...And I can't find anything with google on how to do it! So... :|

[carrotsNcrispies]

@mewmewcaroline usually the pen tool is already in the normal layer tools :(

[PandaChey]

I noticed you used patterns for your background/sun, where did you get them? o:

Adorable art btw. <3

[technologicsims]

how do you color the lineart afterwards??? cos i can only do it in a vector layer T^T btw this is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G can't wait for more :3

[LLLOOOVVVEEEAAACHAN]

Your work is truly beautiful! How large is this picture?

[namine96roxas]

the image fisrt you draw , what did you use ?? (sorry bad english) ^^ mean before you put black

[namine96roxas]

the image fisrt you draw , what did you use ?? (sorry bad english) ^^

[wontonswithsoysauce]

I swear, you line arterers have an infinite amount of patience.  O-O

[FanGarl01]

why are you so frickin awesome...I'M TRYING TO ENVY YOU BUT I CAN'T I CAN ONLY LOVE YOU AND YOUR DRAWINGS xD

[Peppermint264]

omg!! cuuute :3 i love the eyesss

[crumitieblvd]

I absolutely love this speed paint~! I've watched it like 20 times.

I reall y want to make one now, very motivating (:

I'm trying to find the EXACT copy of the second song that starts 0:22

[jacquezmin]

do you use vector? o_o

[GacktxLuna]

What is the name of the first song with the telephone ringing? I'm looking for the exact version.

[DuhCatherry]

@GacktxLuna dBu music - RoYAL MiLK TEi - おーぷん

Is that what you were asking for?

[LivinusX]

WHATS THE NAME OF THE FIRST SONG. ; _ ; I know the starting theme, but the fast techno-beat song is the one I cant find. :I

I cant find it. DDD: HAAAAAALP. /is too desperate.

[Alakakatie]

....... HOWWWWWWW

I'm so jealous T_T

I wish I could Lineart half as well as this

[Tohluse]

Ugh, lineart is the reason why I wish I had SAI orz

I used it once and it was amazing, doing the lineart in photoshop is horrible.

[vocaloidgurl]

touhou touhou touhou touhou. :3

[NotAnAnimator]

I liked the way you started the video. Very cool. And this music is sooooooo gooooooooood.

The rest of the video was super inspirational. ^^ I haven't cg'd in ages, cos work's been so crazy. This should help me find the energy to get stuck into it. >:D

[ironxangel]

what resolution did you have it on when you were doing the line art? :o

[Namfaceable]

@ironxangel 300 dpi resolution. Or zoom? uh, usually 75%~200%

[MiissRowena]

@namfaceable ohh my bad XD! i didn't know that, fail.

but also ido agree ;o how are able to draw/colour/line with the stablizer/smoother with the setting as 1? ;o

[Namfaceable]

@MiissRowena I have no idea, I just draw \o/ ;;;

[1mikuhatsune1]

@Namfaceable coult you do a tutorial :3

[Fayeyang2000]

Excuse me, but ermm... I see you're using the pen tool but are you on a lineart layer? Do you have to download it or something? @ [] @?

[Namfaceable]

@Fayeyang2000 I don't like using the lineart layer;;; The lines don't come out as flowy imo;

[PandaMystery7th]

@Namfaceable

YES. And after you draw the line, it automatically becomes crooked, which frustrates me.

[StellatheKat]

@Namfaceable What brush do you use?

[Namfaceable]

@Elifuwa I dont know what a stabilizer is but people seems to have mentioned it OTL Well, I haven't changed it whatever it is since I first got sai |D I'm currentely 17

[MiissRowena]

@greenfrogstastegood she uses a tablet pc, so it's much more better control than just using a tablet itself. Touchscreen computer, seems cool i must say.

[Namfaceable]

@MiissRowena uh no, that thing exploded around a year ago I use a normal tablet now orz

[DoodleArtist11x]

@MiissRowena she uses a INTUOS 4,not a tablet pc. its said on her deviantart. 

[MiissRowena]

@DoodleArtist11x I know now, just i saw a comment on her tumblr page before i saw it on her DA saying she used a tablet pc, but yeah thanks for telling.

[GreenFrogsTasteGood]

What settings do you use for the lineart?

I noticed that you have the stabilizer/smoothing on setting 1. That must be hard to control?

[Namfaceable]

@GreenFrogsTasteGood I think it's default? I don't even know what a stabilizer is OTL I don't know about control just go with the flow...? \o/

[Namfaceable]

@Elifuwa I'm airbrushing colours on a new clip layer on top the of base layer;;; if that makes sense ^^;

[shewhodoesnothing]

Can i ask something? QvQ

How high is your resolution so that when you zoom it in you dont get pixels? or do you use a big canvas?

SORRY FOR DISTURBING YOUUUUUU FFFFF

*stabsself*

[Namfaceable]

@shewhodoesnothing a4, 300dpi (2480 x 3057 ) for this one~ (dude calm down it's only a question i'm happy to answer C: )

[xKiwiiLime]

THEM RUFFLES ;________;

I can never get them right lmfao. Must've been a pain to draw?

[Namfaceable]

@xKiwiiLime When you have been drawing frilly touhous for over a year it becomes quite easy OTL

[P0P53H]

i admire your work so much Q_Q your lines are perfect and beautiful and your colours are just far beyond anything i could ever be! thanks so much for posting it, it will help me a lot with improving my own stuff! <3

[akuroku1996]

when drawing frills and folds in fabric, they always give me an art boo boo ;]

[marie10812]

Awesome tutorial and cute style = 3 = ~~~ excuse me but could you tell me what songs did you use in this video? I like them a lot

[XxJiazuMiStarZxX]

Namie, I see that u use the brush tool alot.

In your opinion, which is better for shading, lineart coloring, etc: Brush tool or Water tool?

Thxx :D

[Namfaceable]

@XxJiazuMiStarZxX : I like to use brush because I like to choose my colours without it blending for me. But i'm pretty much doing what the water tool does manually; (pen for cell shading though)

[Nyeuffe]

Nyawn.. achu doing with the layer at 4:58..are you drawing over the layer with the hair base color?o_o*stares*

[Namfaceable]

@Nyeuffe I haven't actually finished base colouring *copypaste* There I lower the opacity of the lineart and "neaten" the base colours so the flat colours underneath matches the lineart. It makes the lines "soft" without much effort. However base colouring takes a long time then ^^;

[Namfaceable]

@AlexRadesNaruto self taught;;

[Toxeec]

I LOVE YOU. ;A;

[Ryoukaiiz]

Sitting here, wondering what's even going on.. Most I've ever managed to do on SAI is draw random scribbles.. ;A;

Amazing, like all your other artwork. (watched you on dA for quite some time)

And HAPPY CHINESE INABA YEAR/ HAPPY TEWI YEAR

[bubbzyBOOM]

This is so amazing.

Please, have my babies. LOL <3

[Julz626]

This is awesome work! Just out of curiosity around how many layers did you create to do the line art?

[Namfaceable]

@Julz626 I think 4? orz

[9XzeespaceX6]

I've totally had you on my DA watch for the longest time. I'm so happy you're making vids too. Love your work

[IchiIchigoBlue]

May I know the name of the songs you used from both of your videos? They are very nice :).

[Namfaceable]

@IchiIchigoBlue They're songs from [dBu Music] RoYAL MiLK TEi and [dBu music] iCE MiLK TEi and one of them is shiawase usagi by cool&create. It;s actually all the same 2 songs remixed haha

[Pesanteuse]

I always get so fascinated by these kind of videos O.O

[VivifxAMV]

Wow so amazing! I aspire to be able to color like you one day XD I learned soooo much....now I want to color something all fancily. A quick question...at 5:02 what exactly are you doing? I know you are softening up the line art -- making it closer in color to the actual color of the clothing, but how exactly are you doing that?

[Namfaceable]

@VivifxAMV Gosh thanks! There I lower the opacity of the lineart and "neaten" the base colours so the flat colours underneath matches the lineart. It makes the lines "soft" without much effort. However base colouring takes a long time then ^^;

[VivifxAMV]

@Namfaceable Ah I see. Coloring takes me a long time anyways, might as well tack on another hour or two, really doesn't make a difference. Thanks so much <3

[YonakoKitti]

Upload more speedpaints Namie~ ;u; <3

[jessicachen5134]

amazing! im subscribing for sure! hope you'll upload more:DDDD

[iLikehhchocomilk]

I seriously don't know anyone on youtube whose linearting is fun to watch XDD

Yours really is though * A *

So beaaautiful~ 8DD

Everything in it is ^^

[littlestella13]

KAWAII

[strawberrysmash13]

What size canvas do you use?

[Namfaceable]

@strawberrysmash13 a4, 300dpi (2480 x 3057 )

[kokobedima]

Thanks for awesome video. now ill use pen instead of brush for lineart!

[kupotenshi]

Your lineart is very nice <3

[HakureiSM]

Holy balls, I just learned a lot.

[Konnichiwa19]

I LOVE Cool & create shiawase usagi <--- This song is god. Thank you to share your great Talent with us :D I really appreciate it ^-^

(In hopes you will do others, or more awesome, a Livestream =))

[Namfaceable]

@Konnichiwa19 Cool&Create- cool y/y?
