  • Because using layers is too mainstream. xD

  • too awesome =.=

  • bullshit! I can do better !

    .

    ps; no i can't

    .

  • Really amazing I wish I knew how to do all that.

  • I had never thought to use the Liquify tool in such a manner. This tutorial and the subsequent ones are very informative. Thank you!!!

  • at the beginning looked like Disney's Pocahontas 0:30 AWESOME!!!

  • The attention to detail is extraordinary. whenever I think that a spot is done you go back and make it better adding the smallest details. o.O

  • using just one layer... not sure if that's insane or ambitious haha. either way, no room to complain - i have loved this piece for years and still love it. really, really incredible work.

  • Painting like this..proportions..raw talent..it's borderline genius..maybe complete genius..

  • oh je savais même pas qu'il y avait une version vidéo ^^

    merci de partager tout ça ! :)

    si ça te dit, j'ai aussi ma chaîne "artiste"" où je mets des vidéos - dessins pas à pas et autres.

    ça fait un bail que je te suis, j'aime beaucoup ton travail ^^

    Bye :)

  • you do this all on one layer?! wtf!! mad crazy

  • @j3shika xD

  • Princess Amadala!

  • Was the artist using a photo as reference or was that just from the top of their head? Either way, i am completely amazed. I hope to one day be so talented.

  • you only use one layer?

  • I was wondering if programs such as Photoshop is needed? It's really something I'm not able to afford but was also wondering if there is anything else i can use thats just as good but cheaper or priceless?

  • @Kev012343210 Try GIMP out, its free and does everything photoshop can do.

  • just one layer for these whole things?!! *scream*

  • All of the people who keep saying "talented" are wrong. It's called hard work and dedication. This is INCREDIBLE, and you can be this good as well if you spent the time and energy this artist did. Don't belittle him and put it all on "natural talent," this is far beyond something so ridiculous.

  • why dont the rlly good artists not hav many vids??? make more plz!!! D:

  • @KandiSOUL

    Probably because they're busy. A lot of them have contracts with companies and have projects as free lancers.

  • All on one layer, Bad Ass!

  • Hi,

    What is the brush name that you used and the brush setting ?

    Thanks. <3

  • @valeriehn For the skin

  • If I were this talented, I'd never be bored again.

  • my expression was like what the hell is this than oooh now i see it

    than holy Sh*t this awesome

  • Materials for this drawing:

    -tablet

    -digital art software

    -superb patience

    -crazy skill

    -awesomeness

    :D

  • This tutorial is very good and your artworks are amazing! Thanks for sharing it all! :)

  • this would have taken me a month or more to draw lol

    it's just astonishing i can't describe it in words

    magnificent!!!

  • thank you for doing a tutorial on digital painting for us artists thats starting out!

  • I am very glad I found this. I saw your tutorial on DA first, then i was just randomly searching here. This answers SO many questions that I had with the written tut. Thanks for posting dear!

  • 200,000 people realized yet again people put tutorial in the description by accident and did not continue on to part II. In spite of this, the greatest youtube peeve I have in fact, I will venture on.

  • @NobleValerian And one particular "NobelValerian" didn't read the description in which the tut can be found... Awkward :D

  • how do you work with the background layer locked?

  • AAAAAA-MAZING! I want a poster of this to hang in my room.. it's awesome!

  • one layer? OMG

  • one layer? damn haha

  • Do you have the link for where you downloaded photoshop? If you could help me thanks! Ive been looking for a download at least.

  • Excellent work! If you need music for the background, let us know ;-)

  • OMG is that all done using only one layer? unbelievable

  • I can see its a Mac, but what equivalent specs for a Windows PC should I get to be able to work on something like this without my machine hiccuping?

  • @anomalousunderd0g

    it will always depend on how high of a resolution you draw in , and then how much ram you have, the more the better, and if you have a graphics card, i have a 4 core processor running at 3.5 each core and 8 gigs of ram but since i do not have a graphics card once i get to high res , things such as the liquify tool instead of being instant they require some load time :/

  • i understand that airbrushes and soft edged brushes give plastic look to skin , but its Way harder to blend shading when the brush hardness is 100 % for me , and i noticed that your brush isn't hard edged either very often :P .. so i am abit confused about your tutorial that says to use 95% - 100% hard edged brush and would appreciate if you clear that up .. thanks .

  • @Seiferzed I'm no expert, but if you customize your brush presets, you can mess with pen pressure etc. Which may be what is confusing you in this video.

  • @Seiferzed What I mean is that the brushes may lay down in gradually increasing hardness's depending on her presets, so that its not just one distinct visible hard contrast between the two. Depending on ones settings you can create a smooth gradient even with a hard edged brush.

  • @VengefulMilk yeah i got that .. maybe i understood her in a wrong way when her tutorials said 95% 100% brush hardness , i could set the pressure to 100 bu still get less than that when needed with pen pressure , but i don't like to press hard on my tablet so in any case i could use a hard edge then go again with a gradient one like you said , thanks for the tips though ; )

  • @Seiferzed I read and reread what she said on blending. And what she did was constantly use the eye dropper tool to resample her colors when blending. Such as laying red next to white. and where they overlapped, sample the mix. Then paint in between the colors that way. So after resampling with the eyedropper and laying down the new color she'd have a smooth gradient from Red-pink-white. I hope this helped a little bit more.

  • TUTORIAL yeah, and im George Washington.

  • i ... love you o.O

  • Thank you for sharing the kind of process that many people keep jealously guarded. Generous!

  • This is amazing, thank you so much!

    And everyone who says this sucks or its ugly or whatever should just shut up. Its obvious you are just jealous.

  • You are superb++

  • I guess there's 20 jalous. I wonder how people could hate this?

  • wow a blue eyed azn...

  • wow, you're amazing :O <3

    i was just wondering, how large is the canvas that you worked on?

  • Layers are overrated

  • Thank Yu for Sharing !! You are amazimg :D

  • Oh look, another speed painting disguised as a tutorial. How original.

  • @Xcyper33 i know right freaking douche bags... why do they do that prancing around hey look at me guys look at what i can do and you cant do.

  • @chimpyboy55 Look. Instead of sitting there and being so obviously jealous of their work, why don't you go and practice drawing so you too can get to this level. And believe or not, it does help to watch someone else paint. No one gets this good overnight and they're just sharing a piece of work they're proud of. Is that so wrong?

  • @Destnai obviously look at the misleading title of the video.. it should say fast digital painting and nothing more. not envious about his skill i give the artist mad props but to mislead and to deceive thats and ahole and a douche bag thing to do.

  • @chimpyboy55 Hate to break it to ya, but this is how most tutorials go on youtube, sorry. I don't really see how its a misleading title either.... But, hey you have your own opinion and thats great, but lay off calling the artist a douchebag.

  • @chimpyboy55

    Wow....First this is a woman. Diane Ozdamar, if you bothered to read the username and do a little research. Secondly, you do know she has about seven or eight MORE tutorials of this one right after this? And yes, this is a tutorial because she has a written one in her description. And if you were an artist yourself, you would know that this is actually a very helpful tutorial. Congrats on making yourself look like a Class A douchebag.

  • @Xcyper33 Actually there is a link to the written tutorial in the video's description... maybe you should try reading the description before posting stupid comments. Now that would be original!

  • @Xcyper33

    if you knew anything you'd realize the best way to learn is to watch and develop on your own. Art is not something you can just say "this is how you do it and thats that" Develop your own skills thats what it is.

    and instead of being a douche try checking the description. theres a link to the tut. I like the vid better personaly

    "actions speak louder than words"

  • @Xcyper33 There's an actual tutorial if you read the description. This video is better though, because it shows it ALL. Its easy to pause and rewind to see the exact steps.You should really just lay off.

  • were's the 'envy botton'?

  • @vnobre you mean button? lol

  • @rivergirlre me bad speak the very english very much. But me upgraid tho level 37 now! Me speak relative good english since 8 months and also have a silver sword :D

    how's the weather there? here is very sunny :)

  • @vnobre oh it's okay, I'm sure your learning. The weather is nice here, sunny and warm.

  • I love how you drew the lines to make sure her face was proportionate xD

    And just one layer through the whole paint? Epic.

  • you're amazing, what kind of brush are you using , is it a custom ?

  • shes really ugly, but great job, you sure got skills..

  • how does he reposition the features on the face so quickly? like on 2:42

  • @bleakAntiquity liquify tool probably

  • how long did you make this art work?

  • bonjour j'ai vu que tu parlais francais alors j'en profite pour une fois cette peinture est tout simplement superbe j'aimerai bien savoir combien de temps tu as mis pour utiliser photoshop avec ce niveau le travaille des yeux et du nez est superbe les touches de blanc et de jaune pour faire l'eclat sont tres bien placées je pense qu'au niveau que tu as tu peut utilise des effet de transparance , des glacis et pourquoi pas un sfumato je croi que leonard serai jaloux en regardant cela ^^ bravo

  • Absolutely stunning :) I tend to go through the tutorial once I get some free time!

    Thank-you so much for taking to the time to help other!!!

  • anyone tell me how he blend the colours shades on the face?

  • wow that was amazing how long did it take u to do that ??

  • u are amazingD:::: GREAT tutorialD:

  • Question : To cover the outline, I must use a hard brush with the color that's on that specific area of the head right?

  • No offence, but this tutorial is pretty useless without documentary..

    You have to talk during the progress or other wise the people wont understand the whole tutorial progress..

    And further more, this makes people want to draw very quickly.. And thats the biggest mistake in this tutorial..

    Always give a proper documentary before you start..

    Thats my biggest critique for you..

    And nice work :)

  • @Zoza15 first of all, there is an easily understandable tutorial on devian@rt that follows this perfectly [follow the link in author's comment box] and is done in TWO languages to be even more helpful. and second, this is a sped up recording. uploading real time recording on youtube would take too much time and editing.

    before leaving any 'critique' it's always nice to look everything through and through to make sure you know what you're talking about.

  • your work is wonderful, just wish the video was slowed down a bit.

  • I wish I could start with that much colour, tend to stick to greys and blacks then use colour to finish ! Very cool !

  • All I can say is that I am stunned and extremely jealous of your skill.

  • holly god

  • ... Who are the 16 idiots who disliked this stunning video??

  • omg, one layer, wtf? Ö_Ö

  • Check out these video tutorials if you need help in becoming a pro Photoshop user - youtube.com/watch?v=wg-MqQwG5z­4

  • the eyes are fantastic, i can do it all apart form the eyes and hair lol :(

  • how big is your canvas here?

    i know you from deviantart, you're incredible :D i'd love to try digital art as well, sadly my computer is too slow :/ so i'm stuck with traditional art for now^^

    once more, thank you for sharing your art and techniques :) <3

  • Thanks for the tutorial, it was really useful, here is some works I did with some of your advice on board, just click on my name on the left hand side to take a look, I focused primarily on Robo Digi Art, looking forward to see more of your videos in the near future, Digi Artman :)

  • The Liquefy Tool to make small tweaks to the anatomy... why didn't I think of that??!

    Love this video !

  • WOWWW.... :)

  • I love your DA work! You're one of my favorite digital artists! By the way, did you use a reference for this?

  • OH MY GOD!!! your tutorial always amaze me!

  • Bonjour je m'appelle Margot et je fais du dessin. J'aimerais utiliser une tablette graphique pour dessiner mais je ne sais pas trop quoi prendre...

    Avec quelle tablette travaillez vous? Au fait c'est mon grand père mr Cussol qui m'a parlé de votre travail et m'a donné le nom du site...vous vous souvenez de lui?

  • @sueroski a wacom intuos 3A4 graphics tablet, found in the description :).

  • incredible! 

  • i really like this

  • did u use a tablet?

  • @zapper9595 a wacom intuos 3A4 graphics tablet, found in the description. :)

  • This has always bugged me...what tool did you use in 2:43?

    You art is amazing, by the way. :3

  • amazing really u are Artist Man ,, thanx alot

  • Spectacular work! I just bought an Intuos 4 and I'm truly inspired by your work. I followed your link to deviant art but all your links including the brushes you used is down.. Can you repost or redirect me?

  • wow!

  • What resolution/canvas size do you use?

  • GOSH. YOU'RE GREAT!!!... AWESOME...AWESOME GREAT! LOL...

    do you use Wacom or something? just asking :D

  • My only complaint is I can never get the video to work, thank goodness I've always had the image tutorial tucked away from its release on DA. Also the one time I was able to get it to work the loading image was always in the center of the screen as if versus being a video it was just a huge slide show or something that was constantly loading bits and pieces. Anyways, your art is amazing your talent is raw and well earned I thank you so much for giving your time to create tutorials such as this!

  • Awesome tutorial and great painting. Can you explain to me what you're doing with the liquify tool though? I'm trying to get the colors in my portraits to blend smoother, and it seems like that's doing something.

  • Je reste ébahie devant ce tutorial, ça m'a tellement aidé ! Merci, merci !

  • You're really very inspirational, I hope you know that, right? :D I've actually gone and picked up my tablet just because of your tutorials ^0^ xD wahhh; and the most amazing thing.. you've practically done the WHOLE thing.. IN ONE LAYER ONE DAMN LAYER O.O!! seriously; you are er;opineponepoe wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too goood and amazing :D! BRILLIANT; absolutely brilliant :DD Role model material, tbh :] <3333~
  • Arigato for your very amazing tutorial, I have learned so much with your tips and techniques

    Its so much fun painting with my small beginner wacom in photoshop

  • GEEEZ .

  • You are so amazing and kind to give others the opportunity to learn from such mastery. I am in complete awe of your talent and flexibility on a digital medium. Simply fantastic and beautiful work. It's so realistic yet there's a hint of fantasy within your artwork. Your style is just so eye-catching and beautiful, it's simply mad if someone doesn't compliment your work. Truly fantastic and lovely, the best digital artwork I've ever seen. 5 stars.

  • Ce video est TRES bon! Super travail, ton connaisance de le composition couleurs sont TRES bon. Ma francais est ne qui bon. Je regarderai a tes autres videos sur deviant art.

  • you are so awesome!

  • Can someone please tell me his brush settings???

    PLEASE ~

  • @avivrez Her*, and it's in the description. (in the tutorial !)

  • Oh my god, you work on only one layer! RESPECT!

  • @teasaiocht With the liquify tool and all the wonders of photoshop its not that hard to work on one layer, but still.. i got respect overall for this great work

  • @teasaiocht Haha, i was just about to post a comment saying just that XD. Thumbs up ^.^

  • @teasaiocht

    LOL i agree the artist is very talented and that deserves respect but remember all traditional artists have only ever had one layer to work on for centuries! so thats not really the acheivement here, but anyway YEAH RESPECT! this artist rocks :D

  • @beautybabebuzz Ummmmmmm hes doin at in one layer, ur a dumbass.. 

  • @RyanJohnston1507

    your a fucking dumbass i know it's on one layer you twat thats the whole point i'm trying to make

  • @beautybabebuzz Pardon? This artist is only using one layer.

  • @EmetTheUndead

    i know. hence the point i'm trying to make.

  • the thing with photoshop is knowing when to stop. Nice illustration.

  • what tool is he using at 2:22 ?

  • (She) That is the Liquify Tool, found under the Filter menu. Depending on which version of Photoshop you have. This painting was done in CS3.

  • supongo que hacer ese tipo de trabajo toma mucho tiempo, que sera?, un par de horas?

  • Aproximadamente doce horas, Maritaliendo.

  • @TheDickyShow eso imaginaba, porque yo he dibujado un ojo y me ha costado al final me ha salido bien, Entonces ya se lo que se tarda en hacer ese tipo de dibujo.

  • mind telling what brushes you used? i find the standard brush to lack texture and the like

  • I'm positive the artist uses standard brushes.

  • as in the stock photoshop hard/soft brush? hmm what about the brush settings aside from pen pressure?

  • She uses hard brushes of different sorts (but really all the same in the end) and plays around with their Opacity Jitter, and Opacity Size a lot to block in the basic shapes and tones. She then comes back in and uses a Large Round Hard Edged brush (at 95% to 100% hard) with the Opacity Jitter set to Pen Pressure 0% to blend and add colors as she moves along through her piece.

  • i see thanks man ^^

  • No problem.

  • No, they're custom.

  • You can download them at the tutorial page on deviant art (link in the description).

  • Do you have more tutorials for complete beginners without a tablet? :) Would be really awesome if you did.

    The Geisha looks stunning btw, keep this up :)

  • Hi DianeOzdamar!

    I just whould like to thank you very much for the very helpful tutorials you spent 40 Hours in to give us for free!

    PEOPLE! before commenting, always check the description! there is always additional infos in there.. is this how some of you give their thanks...?

    De toute façon, merci bien Dianae!

  • Hi. THis is great, I was just wondering about the liquify tool. I have your written tutorial and don't see it in there. Is this a necessary tool or is it more for adjustments?

  • This is not a tutorial, this is a speed run!

  • Please checkout the description, there is a link to the full WRITTEN tutorial in there.

    I'm a bit tired of people coming here shouting "this is not a tutorial" as this tut took me over 40 hours to create (and for free). Painting was the quickest part to do -_-

    Thank you.

  • @leoceara31 apparently u can't read..

  • can people learn to draw and paint like that or is it just a natural talent?

    I'd really like to know, is it worth taking art classes?

  • Yes they can! You can search the book "Drawing on the right side of the brain" by Betty Edwards for reference, everyone can draw realistic.

  • @TheDailyMonk yes of course you can learn to paint and draw its a skill that is developed like any other any art class you take is worth while the most important things are antomy, form value and lighting from there u can draw and paint any thing

  • Video tut doesn't seem to work?? I click your link on DA as well and it leads me right back here. No videos? Gone?? Would luv to see them!

  • Did you do this all on layer? I prefer doing things on one layer, but this is amazing. And the fact that you did the highlights first before the outline. Impressive, this beautiful work. Thank you.

  • this is so impressive <3

  • Thank you :)

  • Hello. I'm starting a project on my channel, and I need some artists with free time to assist me in this effort. If you could stop by my channel when you get a chance, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

  • it's no use to tell you how to draw, you have to learn that part yourself. Practice practice practice.

    Try to learn from what you see -flow of lines, proportions, color use, etc.

  • I dont think I can learn by watching a video

    It's really hard, I dont even think I'll be able to make those even if I attend attend a class D;<

  • if you walk trough your life with this attitude than of course you won't be able to do nothing.

    Have some guts and do what you like to do.

    A few years ago I didn't thought I would draw like I draw now and I still think it isn't good.

    So just do it and stop being a pussy ;)

  • lol

    Yeah..I'll try >_>

    Ty

  • another tip - never say "try" Do it or leave it

    scrap that word out of your dictionary

    :D haha ok enough of that

  • wtf D:

  • If you had carefully checked out the description, you would have found out the link to the full WRITTEN tutorial in there.

    Which is much more helpful than the video part (I just put the videos here so people could see how I used to work. Videos are not meant to be a tutorial).

    Thanks.

  • @competer4 smart one, did u see the tutorial she written on her talking place? I rest my case.

  • Wow. She's absolutely beautiful.

  • Great tutorial.

    You sure explained everything very well......

  • Thanks a lot :)

  • @DianeOzdamar i think he was sarcastic...

  • ...a pity? You didn't notice the commentary? There's even a full written tutorial covering everything done here....

    Amazing gratitude shown for the huge job she made to share the process of creating a masterpiece like this.

    Would you rather have a 12 hour realtime series consisting of a hundred short youtube movies?

    Imho it's an extremely well done and inspiring series of visual lessons for a digital artist completed by an awesome tutorial. Much appreciated!

  • I respect you opinion and hold to mine.

  • i respect your opinion* lol

  • what would you like to see in a tutorial that would be of help to you?

  • nice drawing but it is not a tutorial

  • Well, I learned from it :/

  • What if you had checked the description so you could have found the link to the full WRITTEN tutorial in there ?

    I'm quite tired of people saying this is not a tutorial as I only spent 10 hours on the painting but I spent over 40 hours on the WRITTEN TUTORIAL WITH .abr BRUSH FILES, ETC.

    Thank you.

  • Whoops! Tanks for the clarification. Hmmm....
