@LaraYokoshima it would be great if you could make a tutorial video of this. i am trying to follow your steps carefully and you have really helped me a lot in colouring. this is inspiring!!! you are awesome!!!!
I can't tell based on the picture screen- but do you add another layer for the shadows so you can erase them, or do you use a more transparent brush directly over the base color on your layer?
@myshadowcantdance I do my shadows in the same base color layer because that way I can blend them and make them look natural. Sometimes I like to add an extra shadow layer for a deeper effect, but in this drawing this was not used.
How do you do to make it fade away or blur it at the end of their bust? I think you use the same technique when you apply the shading too, to combine the basic color with the other one. Am I right? Is it a stroke you do with the pen or something else?
do you draw the lineart with a vector tool or free hand it? i can't make up my mind how i should draw digitally lol when i try to free hand, the line art looks kinda sloppy.
@phoenix9909 I draw everything freehand, but digitally, with a wacom tablet. Vector isn't really an option for me, since it'll never look as natural like real inking/sketching. You could try vectorizing your lineart later, to retain quality when you want to upscale your drawings.
@mertoness I think ComicWorks has some coloring tools, but still the best option is to color with Corel Painter, Photoshop and even Paint Tool SAI, which I've found to be an incredibly good painting software and it doesn't slow your computer down like, ever.
@UnholyMalucel Flatten? I don't think so, I need the lineart layer on top of the colors, at the very start there are 2 layers, the white background and the transparent lineart layer.
@HirukoConnection Yeah, but nothing's in there. I have y!Gallery, Mangabullet, Pixiv and Tumblr accounts, as well as a Twitter. Check my youtube profile to get the links :)
I have a question, in your video description you said "My brush of choice is Round Camelhair with various settings." Is that only for the coloring, or did you also used said brush for the sketch?
@LaraYokoshima Oh okay! Thank you so much for replying and of course, for uploading this video. :) Keep up the good work and damn, I so wish I could draw like that.
Do you know of any good corel painter tutorials? I have painter 11, but i'm so lost on how it works. If you know where there are some quality tutorials please do let me know! Wonderful work :) I'm not really a Yaoi fan, but I can still appreciate good artwork when i see it :D
um sorry for the question, but how do you shade like that? It sorta fades. When you did his nose on 2:52
Thats what I'm talking about...it might be a dumb question, but I've only started coloring digitally a week ago...and have no idea how to color anyways.
@XxONExX100 I just think they are blinded by their homophobic selves but that's okay, only yaoi fans will recognize it and enjoy it and that's enough for me :)
@LaraYokoshima I won't lie, I also thought that it was a girl as well. I was creeped out at first but I found out what Yaoi was and now I understand it. But I won't let that cloud my views on how amazing this art piece is. Nobody should discriminate against art. By the way, excellent job. I envy your coloring skills :'(
Simply amazing!! i watched your Dante video too and my jaw dropped! I can look up to your coloring skills. :3 I've been wanting to learn how to color digitally and I have Corel Painter Essentials 4, i guess its only a matter of getting it right. I will be sure to use your awsome art as a reference! Thank you! :D
@Ninjaz93 Thanks, glad my videos can be of help. I have tried Painter Essentials, sadly I must say that its brushes are not customizable nor have the same quality finish as Painter, so maybe it's gonna be a little hard to get it right at first. Still, good luck! :)
Whoever thinks these two were girls are obviously blind >,< Seriously they are too masculine to be females~ Anyways.... This picture is, well, I don't want to say darling but it is breathtakingly adorable C: Lovely picture~
This is so pretty!!! They're so cute!!! >w< I wish I could draw like that... The only thing I can do is a anime girl's face... With the eyes and all... Not even a boy...
......Your fucking amazing and i dont think theres anything wrong with drawing two guys hugging. I've drawn anime gay guys before so whoever has an issue with your amazing are needs to see a doctor
@DRxSqueakin ...it's on video info. Hadouken! - Music for an Accelerated Culture - Get Smashed Gate Crash and the one not listed is Declaration of War by the same band.
@IHeartRamune it looks like they may have been drawn on paper and scanned in.(you can tell by the way the lines are all texture-ized, but i could be wrong)
lovely! I also have painter ix, and I was wondering how you pop out the extra brush settings? And which setting you use to lay your base tones? thanks!
@Sinacious All brush settings can be changed in the main General window, which usually is already there when you start the program. You can use any kind of brush you want to paint the base tones, the only recommendation I can give is the opacity must be at 100% and use a brush that doesn't leave any textures... or you can use a pen too, that way you can ensure the colors are flat and crisp on the edges.
Cute drawing! I just got Corel, and am trying it out, and had a question. Did you do your lineart in Corel, or another program? If you did do it in Corel, what brush did you use? Thanks. :)
woah, this style is amazing. This reminds me of this other artist, you draw just like her, and she did yaoi also. People called her Lily or something. She had a website where she posted her drawing, they were mostly naruto drawings, just wondering if you were the same artist. Please respond
@LaraYokoshima Well you draw truly magnificent. May i ask just one more question, where did you pick on your art style? I love to draw anime type stuff also and wish to get better, if there is anything you recommend then i would really love to hear it.
@velstor My style evolved very slowly I think, since I've been drawing for more than 10 years now and I tested several other styles influenced by my favorite artists. I ultimately decided on a more bishonensque style, but yes, it took me a while. All I can suggest is you choose a style line and then develop your own with time :)
can you tell me what program you use to take the video and making it faster? I use camstudio and virtual dub and I don't know how to compress the vid in virtual dub and it takes hours for saving =/
just a question...hope you could answer...how do you color without covering the outlines? i notice that while you're coloring the picture, the colors don't overlap the outlines...how do you do that?...i've been watching diff. tutorials but they're using a different technique...
Please be more specific. Which brush are you using exactly? Some brushes leave white traces on new layers because the resaturation value is very low. What I suggest is using a flat brush (no effects) to apply a base color, then lock the transparent pixels and then apply shading, that way no white residue will be left.
It's the blenders type brush, all of them. All the blender brush variants leave the white blotchy areas when you smear or blend off into a transparent area.
I see. The problem is you are using those blenders on the edges of 1 color layer, not to actually blend two colors. I tested them and I don't think blender brushes are made to work on different layers. They work fine on the canvas layer and if you use layers, just be careful not to use it on the edges of a colored area. I assume then that you are trying to blend two colors on two different layers. It will never work that way.
@MAiKUxArt I had the same problem, only it didnt do it before until corel got an error and closed then when I came back it did that wierd white mudge thing :/
I answered this before: the lineart is on a separate layer above the rest of the color layers, so no matter what, the lines will never be covered nor smudged.
Do you think you would ever consider creating an actual tutorial? This was really impressive. I've seen lots of tuts, some good, some horrible, but they are truly a great learning experience.
That aside, this was really cool (shounen ai/yaoi = FTW). *Off to part 2*
I've been considering doing a tutorial video now that many people have asked the same question. I do have tutorials online at my website, but they are downloadable PDFs.
People should realize that there's nothing wrong with male and male, female and female couples, they're as natural as straight couples. Perhaps, we should focus more on the ART, instead of the subjects. You know, how the line art is very clean, and how the coloring reflects the artist's preference and style, etc..
@Makilore the subject is a part of the art. if they were to judge the art in whole, they have to consider the subject as well. if not, what will the art be about?
Check the Window menu on Painter and select "Brush Controls > Show General". Or simply select "Arrange Palettes > Default". It should also bring the default windows up, then you can just organize them as you wish.
I don't know... really. Look, I don't mean to be rude, but unless it's some sort of technical question, I cannot give you a good answer. I don't think anyone can teach how to become an artist, you just have to learn for yourself and practice a lot. Your question is rather vague.
this is amazing, what brushes did you use!

How do you blend in layers without getting all the annoying white spots on the transparent areas?
Thanks for your time.

I'm usually very careful when filling with the base color first I guess. A dark background is recommended so you won't miss anything.

Also how do you color on the lineart without painting over the lines? Or does Corel painter just work like that?

I answered this before: the lineart is on a separate layer above the rest of the color layers, so no matter what, the lines will never be covered nor smudged.

Oh, ok thanks so much :D
5c4ryP4nd4 2 years ago
How many layers did you use? They are the things that mess me up right now cause' I'n not entirely sure how to use them.

Do you think you would ever consider creating an actual tutorial? This was really impressive. I've seen lots of tuts, some good, some horrible, but they are truly a great learning experience.
That aside, this was really cool (shounen ai/yaoi = FTW). *Off to part 2*

Thank you for your comment :)
I've been considering doing a tutorial video now that many people have asked the same question. I do have tutorials online at my website, but they are downloadable PDFs.

what's better for coloring photoshop or Corel Painter?
vikutaa 2 years ago
For me it's Painter, but it all depends of what you feel more comfortable with. Some people do amazing stuff with Photoshop too.

People should realize that there's nothing wrong with male and male, female and female couples, they're as natural as straight couples. Perhaps, we should focus more on the ART, instead of the subjects. You know, how the line art is very clean, and how the coloring reflects the artist's preference and style, etc..

@Makilore the subject is a part of the art. if they were to judge the art in whole, they have to consider the subject as well. if not, what will the art be about?

how can i get the tool boox on the right...but not the color mixer or layer the other one ? >.> please

Check the Window menu on Painter and select "Brush Controls > Show General". Or simply select "Arrange Palettes > Default". It should also bring the default windows up, then you can just organize them as you wish.

I ahve a question LaraYokoshima, how can i keep the lineart or made teh lineart like this?
Loa4EVER 2 years ago
Um, I don't quite understand your question... what exactly do you want to know?
LaraYokoshima 2 years ago
How I put this... how can I make the lineart expressive.
Loa4EVER 2 years ago
I don't know... really. Look, I don't mean to be rude, but unless it's some sort of technical question, I cannot give you a good answer. I don't think anyone can teach how to become an artist, you just have to learn for yourself and practice a lot. Your question is rather vague.
LaraYokoshima 2 years ago
You are not rude no problem, I'm not quite good to make questions soo it's normal you answeering that way I undrestand.

No offense taken. If you read descriptions more often, you would know that it is a guy and that this is a shonen-ai themed drawing.

which tool do you use to rotate the picture while coloring?
Dummiechiaki 2 years ago
Um, the rotate tool.
LaraYokoshima 2 years ago
yeah XD but where's it located? sorry for asking such dumb questions..
Dummiechiaki 2 years ago
On the tool window where the open hand is, keep pressing and the rotating tool should appear there, or just press the E key.
