MUTE!

[munkiemee]

@AlbertoFarra Lol, I had the sound down and I read your comment and I thought, Oh, and I thought 'Ah its probably that one -' and I had turned on the volume and immediately turned it down again xD

[ArchitekOGP]

The people who made this song should get it of youtube because who would want to buy their songs after this lol.

[AndreOriginals]

I HATE THIS SONG FOR FUCK SAKE!

[joemen13]

i hate this song

[WadsXDXD]

i got a question makes a big diference using a muse or a digital pen to paint and if it makes wich digital is most recoment since i never used one i have no idea

[RobertdeGrootDesign]

@WadsXDXD Wacom is the best brand for drawing tablets. When you start you can buy a Wacom Bamboo..they are quite cheap compared to the more advanced tablets such as the Wacom Intuos 4 or Intuos 3 (if you can still buy that one), but there are probably cheaper brands too, but they mostly have pen's that need batteries. Wacom is fully battery-free (unless you take a wireless one..but thats in the tablet and not in the pen.

[EpicPoseidonBeard]

@AlbertoFarra i knw its like the worst thing evar

[JonesIncorprated]

@AlbertoFarra It IS indeed overused, but by no means horrible.

Don't be so bitter xD

[kisaac19]

[RobertdeGrootDesign]

@kisaac19

[jathe5th]

[jcvb32]

lo coloreate bien de huevos pero solo un detalle el diseño no es del todo muy bueno saludos

[Kshflygproject]

Nice , but next time use hyper cam or some virtual camera ^^

[RobertdeGrootDesign]

@Kshflygproject

I do that now, but back then I had an old laptop, which had a hard time using sketchbook pro already..so no way that I could use a capturing program

[justinlitoski1]

[Mongiloyd]

Als je het niet erg vindt vraag ik dit maar in het nederlands, maar hoe heet de mogelijkheid met dat diagonale rode/zwarte/witte blokje, boven je layers. Thanks ;)

[mrdutchvenom]

hey, ik weet niet helemaal wat je bedoelt, maar als je links op die 2 'knoppen' midden in het menu klikt (een zwarte cirkel en een stift), dan komen de menu's naar boven. degene die jij denk ik bedoelt heet 'color'

[Mongiloyd]

OK, thanks! Het leek me ook nog even verstandig om wat tips te lezen op internet ;) Moet het allemaal net maar even weten.

[ReFleXFnatic]

Yeah Dreamscape baby! Oh yeah some pointers, since I'm new, but I have some good ones.

1. ALWAYS NAME your layers something.

2. Learn how to use your layers effectively, with shading, etc.

3. Patience is a virtue with a mouse.

4. Look online for more tips.

[sampaxify]

hey

i have just started with designing on computers and im not to flash at it.

have you got any tips on using sketchbook or computer designing?

thanks alot

sam

[mrdutchvenom]

hi,

thanks for the comment and i do have some tips. You can start tracing drawings you made on paper, to get used with the tablet. Thurder keep practising!! and for sketchbook. Try using enough layers, so you can delete wrong layers.

[Meshgah]

Use Wacom Bamboo A6

[Bl4z3NP4]

how do you get such a smooth line, whenever i try it, it looks a mess!!!! please help me!

[mrdutchvenom]

do you mean with the coloring? I play with the pressure in the wacom program and in alias sketchbook pro. and if you make your brush a bit bigger it's easier to control I guess

[Bl4z3NP4]

well colouring and the outline of the car

[TeamDarkMatter]

maybe they use one of those pen drawing things intead of a mouce. but i have the same problem.

[TheRealHero1]

great job, just wondering, do you use an Intruos or Cintiq? I have a hard time drawing in Intuos

[mrdutchvenom]

hey thank you,

this is my other account..just added one movie on this one, but ok..the answer on your question. I use a Wacom Intuos 3. I had to get used to it also, but I started with a cheap tablet of another brand, so this was way better and I was already familiar with tablets because of it.

but..just keep practising, thats the best you can do.

[TheRealHero1]

thanks for the reply, I must have rewatched this video 15 times today, the music is amazing, u don't remember the track right? I'm trying to draw a car too, but I can't get lines where I want them, I use the ruler tool in sketchbook pro alot, but still come out looking like crap, which makes appreaciate your work even more. Are you an Industrial designer?

[mrdutchvenom]

the song is called 'dreamscape' from '009 sound system'..its in the library of youtube.

Do you also draw car's on paper? cause I guess you can best start on paper and maybe trace it in sketchbook to get the feeling.

I would like to be an Industrial Designer, but I didn't like the technique part, only designing, which is just a small part, so I stopped with it and now i'm studying for being a 3d computer animator.

[TheRealHero1]

good for u man. The technical part you mean? I'm a Mechanical Engineer, so I know wut you mean by not liking the technical part lol I enjoy the visual design aspects as well.

[punjabifrog]

hi brother so nice Sketch and the muzik too.

[mrdutchvenom]

I'll go and check out your video's now

[chouille39]

What's the name of this music??????

[matoro1989]

dragon force is a fantasy speed metal band, not a techno/trance (whatever this is) sounds cool though

[Skiller2000]

What software is that.

[matoro1989]

try reading the video title

[takatoo6]

hi Robert dutchvenom Groot :D

if i got it right...i like your drawings soo much..those hand-drawed cars also here in youtube awesome! but what tablet are you using on this? is it wacom? i was thinkin' to get wacom intuos3 A4 but i don't know yet is that smartdecision..if you know something about that, send me message by private,please?

[Henriqueorato]

Nice render!!

hey, could you tell me how to rotate the paper??

I just can't find out how to do this!!

thanks!!

[mrdutchvenom]

hey,

i'll reply with my other login;) you can't rotate the paper, but you can rotate the layer, that's why i stop rotating when i'm going to use different layers..but you can rotate the layer by pressing 'V' on your keyboard.

[LTF85199]

are their autoshapes like squres and circles in alias sketchbook pro? i used Autodesk sheckpro no autoshapes in it :(

[mrdutchvenom]

if there are any, i never found them yet..

[matoro1989]

There aren't any. It's designed to be simple and just like real drawing. If you want to do exact circles or other shapes, you have to place them on the table (i've actually used a ruler right on the table to get straight lines)

[matoro1989]

oh nice rendering btw

which version of the program is this?

[CheriLifesaver]

millano572, that's not true. You can change the resolution, aspect ratio, and DPI easily, even while drawing.

Zoom is dynamic: hold the spacebar and drag your stylus. If you can't see your sketchlines, change your tool size. 300dpi is standard in comics/illustration.

A Tablet/Stylus is not required but it is nearly impossible to use with a mouse, since it was designed for tablets specifically. Buy an inexpensive Wacom Bamboo, I have a 9x12 Intuos for home, and a 4x6 Bamboo for my laptop.

[LargeMaster9999]

Hey People, i just downloaded the free trail of SketchBook Pro 2009. Is there any differect between the full version and the trail? or is the trail the full version, just it will run out in a couple of days? Someone please respond

[deathmage522]

how did you download the free trail can you please tell me how?

[Lucks17]

are you using a wacom tablet?

[BannedIP]

dude you have to work on the perspective, is wrong, keep practicing!

[desainproduk]

hehe nice song.. what band is it?? (out of the topic sory)

[thatniceguy23]

Can anybody tell me how to download and register this sketchbook pro for free?

[mrdutchvenom]

you can download the trial version from the autodesk site, but to get the full version you have to buy it.

[thatniceguy23]

is there a way to not buy it and still get the full version?

[Kayhem]

Thats called being illeagle, Just get a torrent or sommin..lol

[NicholasJBrown]

I guess im just to used to photoshop - ive tried corel painter x and sketchbook pro and just cant seem to get into the flow of the programs.

great to see people working wit them - good work i see with these programs other than photoshop makes me want to take a seconed look.

thanks for the post

[RobertdeGrootDesign]

and you thanks for the message;) For me it's the oposite. I cant render in photoshop like this..only by selecting and coloring with masks and that stuff. I prefer corel painter now for free hand sketches, cause you can easy turn the paper without losing quality. sketchbook pro is very good for quick sketches.

you also have a nice drawing on your profile!! you prefer manga?

[NicholasJBrown]

oh that ones not mine - ill have some of mine up sometime though.

I prefer abstract and freehand in real life on real paper lol - then scanning and editing / coloring - kind of a comic book style but with not such clean lines. - also I really like to edit photo's - paint a pair of wings on a girl to make her a fairy - stuff like that. I like manga also, but not really all that great with drawing their faces (mostly eyes - seems easy but it sucks because its not realistic i guess)

[mrdutchvenom]

yeah that happened with me also..but now I actually use corel painter in witch you rotate the canvas instead of the drawing. Also very nice program!!

[MegumiHayashibaraFan]

nice work!

could you perhaps tell me the name of the band/song playing?

[mrdutchvenom]

thanks!! if im right the song is called revolution deathsquad, artist = dragonforce

and btw;) mrdutchvenom = my other account here with some more work

[maycodesign]

Hey robert erg strak hoor netjes gedaan :D

Wanneer ga je me jou auto laten zien :D

BTW kijk ff op mijn pro ik heb een oude f1 wagen er op staan vind je wel kicke denk ik

Greats Maarten van Maycodesign

[teresahan1991]

thi s program is awesome...  i got the 2.0 version...

[luckyhat4]

What kind of tablet do you use? I have a crappy Graphire 4, the smallest one. It's actually so bad Wacom discontinued it about a month after I bought the damn thing. It's not even on the site anymore!

[RobertdeGrootDesign]

hey, I think the bamboo is the replacement for the graphire. If they didnt discontiniue the graphire, I guess they had to make it cheaper and lose money like that;) but ok..I use a Intuos 3, a5 format.

[nicecar222]

Excellent drawing, and your site is exceptional. anyone browsing would not realise your not english because your grammar is so good!

[ogelrebel]

Nice video and drawing too. Which brushes do you use and what is the size and resolution of your canvas?

[RobertdeGrootDesign]

thanks!! for the drawing I used the pencil tool and for the coloring the airbrush tool. I started with a canvas of 1280 x 800 (my notebook resolution), but because I constantly turn the paper I enlarged it to 3000 x 3000
