Complacent - Drawing in Photoshop

[Atomhaz]

Nice, I like it.

[KameoKid]

Your drawing is so boss! Cool man.

[WayOfSacred]

nie jesteś przypadkiem z polski ?? :D

[plyczkowski]

@WayOfSacred Jestem.

[irasims]

when i am drawing in Photoshop my pencil line is sooooo pixeled...is there a trick to eliminated the pixels and to achieve a smooth pencil line? p.s. sorry for silly question lol:) thanx!

[plyczkowski]

@irasims Increase the resolution.

[keshatl]

@irasims I think you might be using the pencil tool. Use the brush tool.

[kisut7]

damn, the song is frightening. wrong idea to use this song in this kind of demo.

[Skulltruck08]

2 things...

1- A man has 8 head of height.

2-A man has a half head to both sides. That tells you where to draw the arms.

learn the proportions and anatomy and you'll dominate it all (maybe the most part)

[plyczkowski]

@Skulltruck08 This is a teenager not a man, also bodies differ.

[Skulltruck08]

@plyczkowski Whatever, proportions are bad anyway.

[mrrandomcuber]

@Skulltruck08 imagine a fat man! he might have 5 heads width

[DEADGXSR]

Nice drawing, did you learn this by your self or did you have help? What brush did you use for the hole drawing?

[shah123748]

amazing and how to make it can you learn me how to make this online

[erma2006]

AMAZING!..haha.. 

[JTKstudios1]

Awesome :)

[lxloso]

how long did it take you to make this cool drawing?

Thanks for answering, really good job.

[plyczkowski]

@lxloso Thanks. 3 to 4 h I guess.

[Jaymidon2324]

ANYONE can draw anime or manga, but it takes a true professional to turn a real person into a anime or manga character and actually see the resemblance. Goodjob, your very talented.

[plyczkowski]

@Jaymidon2324 Thanks, but the drawing has nothing to do with anime or manga.

[asianboy938]

very nice gave me inspiration thank you

[4thelordlove]

Hey plyczkowski, please tell me that this video is not in real time, cuz if it is you are like on some PS @ Guitar Hero speed shit!!! Nice work. You have a great sense for figure drawing. Have you done life drawing classes or more illustration (or both). Just wondering, I teach and I am always looking for ways to help my students bring their creativity to reality...

[plyczkowski]

@4thelordlove No, the video is not in real time : ) I have done life drawing classes, for three year at the time of the video. I also did more illustration, you can see it at plyczkowskidotcom

[SuperT006]

[mikey757va]

[droogkloot666]

wow amazing.

just how long did it take you to get the skill for making drawings like this?

really cool. *thumbs up*

[plyczkowski]

@droogkloot666 Thanks. I was drawing since I was little, I drew this when I was 20.

[droogkloot666]

@plyczkowski haha and i just been drawing for about 2 months -.-".

And I dont get the concept of clothing and shadows :P

But hey! I just gotta do some more practice then ^^

[scientist100]

[kaka2009kaka22]

والله رسمك بايخ انت ووجهك المايل يالباكستاني هيوانه كبه نونو

[tobergil15]

o-ooo q genialll felicidades

[gearboy12550]

call me computer incompetent. I don't have Photo shop, but I've seen the amazing stuff you can do with it. When you draw, do you do it with a mouse, or is there some kind of special pad/stylus you use to draw with or do you have to use the mouse? My hand is not as steady with the mouse as with a pen, & don't like the idea of having to develop the same skills all over again.

[plyczkowski]

@gearboy12550 Im using a tablet as stated in the desription, google it to learn more.

[whateverbioch]

You're like a Photoshop ninja.

Only thing that irked me was that the hair(head) above his fingers should have went a little higher... But. I love how you took a reference picture and turned it into a completely unique and original piece of art. Regardless of this new "emo" craze, this is amazing. I think that's all that matters. :D

[plyczkowski]

@whateverbioch Thanks. I was treating the reference quite loose in some places.

[akio159]

How long does it take you to get used to drawing with the tablet AND not looking at your hand while your drawing.

[plyczkowski]

@akio159 As I recall I did not have problems with that.

[kaka2009kaka22]

وربي بايخ رسمك انت ووجه المايل يالباكستاني

[MOZZWIGAN]

colour it in

[dragpnchild]

hey u're real good in this. it's really amazing!

I'd like to know how u made this video; i mean did u take screenshots or did u use a programm to 'film it'?

I'd like to be as good as u are right now but i think i have to practise quite long ^^

[KuraikoLee]

@dragpnchild he probably used a program like camstudio to film that, a lot of artist use that (like me).

its free, you can download it from the internet^^

[JohnZach100]

Mate If u can draw like that with a mouse i really want to see what u can draw with a real pencil........................­....

[plyczkowski]

@JohnZach100 It;s not done with a mouse, but with a tablet, which is similar to a pencil.

[azder1killz]

@JohnZach100 ever heard about Wacom? he draws with a pen on a graphic thing that it`s plugd in the computer . [sorry for my bad english]

[Kankerzwijn]

so ehmm thats it?

[lxXxwateverxXxl]

very nice. would have liked to see some color. i never add it to mine tho xD

[04zarbi]

mutodicarteca di otomistamea ser louto miameha iiiiiiiiiiii

[RuneAnime1]

bad music

[Bachplayer1]

it sorta game me the drawing style of the Metal Gear series characters that are in the art books and game guides... if you have ever seen them

[Heaxu7]

dude theres like a quawter of you and ya drawin ya hole self

[mrbtbaker]

what brush do you use

[plyczkowski]

@mrbtbaker read the description

[archtopstudios]

colour it, and than it is perfect.

[xslaver]

I love how the zooms follow up with the beats in the song

[plyczkowski]

@xslaver Only by accident.

[EriGaGa92]

mouse or pad?

[plyczkowski]

@EriGaGa92 Tablet.

[FunFanRandomerz]

jol pawel zadrzisz did i spell it right?

[yopyopkid]

Nico Dimattia is better.

[SiannaPhoenix]

good except the proportions are wrong.

[MrSpyro123]

how do you get the reference photo up beside so you can draw it?

[plyczkowski]

@MrSpyro123 Just open another file, and position the windows.

[PerfectParasite]

How long did this take you?

[plyczkowski]

@PerfectParasite About 4h.

[MadaSkills1]

your a dick.

[stoli4]

I wish i had ur skills :D

[stoli4]

U rock... lol

[TommieScarface]

Are you using a drawing tablet

[plyczkowski]

@TommieScarface Yes.

[shadowkunai12]

@plyczkowski which type of tablet cuz i might get one

[plyczkowski]

@shadowkunai12 Wacom Graphire 2. Get yourself a Bamboo.

[aacool123]

@plyczkowski i got a bamboo there really good

[WilliamGreenHALL]

@aacool123 they're lol

[TommyIsadork]

What is the best desk setup and mouse you are using? Are you using a pencil mouse? scottysavage

[plyczkowski]

@TommyIsadork It's called a tablet, and you can't really draw without it, so don't try anything with a mouse.

[plyczkowski]

@TommyIsadork It's called a tablet, and I'm using it.

[TTemplar]

Great work, great details and very clean lines.

I see at 3:18 it looks like you accidentally added an annotation meaning you hit The N key instead of the B key. I do that all the time that is so aggravating!

I am also glad to see someone else using the transform tools in PS. I read somewhere that was like cheating somehow. I remember thinking how in the hell does anyone cheat at art! If you find a better way of doing something to get the same/better result how can anyone criticize that!

[plyczkowski]

@TTemplar Heh, I'm glad I'm not the only one hitting N. I don't really mind "cheating" in Photoshop, if the result is worth it, except for tracing - when I learn that someone used tracing his work immediately loses my attention...

[Kingz3mil]

thats crazy .. Im loving it .

[diexposeurscum]

How do you open a reference picture along with the canvas?

[plyczkowski]

@diexposeurscum File > open, then arrange windows to your liking.

[santro2009]

tell us some of them drawing programs

[santro2009]

@davcoolbeans i m in this difficult siuation situation to realize that you are realy retired , i ididnt ask about photoshop i know how to use Ps ten times beter than you bitch...i asked about other softwares Plus i wasnt talking t u

[AdamKaoru]

@santro2009 it's called Photoshop.

[plyczkowski]

@santro2009 A great one I found is called SAI, it has some brushes that Ps should really have, check it out.

[jesman1985]

wow.. ur good..

[dohabnt]

really so cool !

^^

[TheHorsesRocks]

realy nice ! have you thought about making a comic???

[plyczkowski]

@TheHorsesRocks I did, but I'm more into 3d modeling now, may come back to drawing more in the future.

[TheHorsesRocks]

@plyczkowski to bad! ^^ I belive you could get realy far!

[blueishmonkey1]

Amazing. [:

Although, he would be more likely to be wearing skinny jeans..

But I read your description so ya. :p

Great work, anyway.

[tomfrankly]

I don't understand why people would draw in photoshop when there are programs specifically designed for drawing. Please help me out.

[plyczkowski]

Photoshop was more than sufficient for this, as it is for painting and drawing for a lot of people.

[babexoxosexxie]

draw me?

[shadowfreakg7]

how many hours have you spent on this? its cool!

[plyczkowski]

About 4 hours I suppose.

[BVprince]

Well that's talent!

[plyczkowski]

That's hard work mister!

[CiCixCherie]

Your body height's a little on the short side...

[subulouse]

what tablet are you using?

[plyczkowski]

This was drawn on Wacom Graphire, I also use Intuos.

[ABigDisgrace]

Omg, that's awsome :o

[00joaco00]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooow

[DarkPolypuss]

Very good!!! were you using a drawing digital table? fantastic very much alive and moving!!!

[plyczkowski]

Thanks! Yeah, I used a tablet.

[xxlittleyukaixx]

UWOA!

Amazing! I really love your drawing methode ^.-

[AlexanderW205]

i like the concept u know am a deviant 2 check my youtube

[joedpwd]

yh dont listen to theese faggots who call you emo. theyre just jealous cause they could never do art as good as you.

[plyczkowski]

I really don't mind.

[joedpwd]

yh i just think that people should have the right to be whoever they wanna be without being judged

[plyczkowski]

Then people would be openly strange, stupid or annoying more than ever. And there would be no goal in self-improvement. Also - read the video description.

[FunkSquared]

really good

[ItsKeroki]

Amazing work! I love how you keep zooming out to see how the picture looks like, I do that all the time :D

[plyczkowski]

Yeah, it's important, either during digital and traditional drawing.. I'm glad you like it.

[deamonrx]

did u know u can create a second view with the unzoomed picture

[ItsKeroki]

yeah, I got that, but its just too small

[robamosmierdas]

FUCK EMO

[masterperro]

Art is art. Simply put.

[tylerpreston]

EMOOO

[Heawydick]

The puta madreeeeeeee xDD

[LolAnime]

of course u did it on a tablet ^^, i would like to ask what kind of brush u use , i got little knowledge about them id like to have a perfect brush for drawing/inking :/

[aerox21]

read description. he says it depends on pen pressure

[LolAnime]

i know about the pen pressure .. its just that , i got a intuos4 yet the yet the pressure dosnt come out very well i think its becuz of set up from the tablet or the brushes . thats why i was asking -.-

[Testingpointer1]

is this mouse? or tablet?

awesome..

[plyczkowski]

Thanks. It's made with a tablet, as described ->

[mjtk1]

read description

"This was done on Wacom Graphire 2 tablet in Photoshop CS with a standard round brush with it's size dependant on tablet pressure"

[KillerzZ27]

that song says Mother... B.....h in spanish lol XD

Sorry my bad English D:

[okami49]

where can you download photoshop for free on pc?

[SourireIrene]

Limewire

[KikoKatsuya]

You must buy it !!

[kiashadowwave]

torrent sites, you need to find a crack for it (which would be illegal *coughnoonecarescough*).

example: btjunkie to find a torrent and utorrent to download it.

[Razvan13manowar]

LOL you can't

[xxxmanuelaxxx1]

realy good i like it

[xinsa]

YOU HAVE STILE ; D

[poeman6]

Also!!

Will it make it so if I'm lighter on the pressure it will make the lines themselves lighter?

Because I'm having a problem with no mater how light I go it's always a bold dark line that makes my art look bad..

[plyczkowski]

Set Other Dynamics to Pen Pressure

[poeman6]

"standard round brush with it's size dependant on tablet pressure."

How can I make it so my brush size goes of pressure of my tablet?!

I'm new at this :<

[kiashadowwave]

it should automatically work when you install the tablet. something is poorly installed.

[umbye]

grazie

[umbye]

music?

Colin Mutchler - Destination Non-Specific

[baderomax]

I really love your drawings, this is a special gift to draw like this.

[Darkproducer]

Emo or not, I've always thought that pose is pretty badass. It's used alot in anime.

[danzinnyman]

lol true emo or not when its artistic its artistic

[enlightthestars]

for your drawing, i love the face and details on the jacket, but the legs seem like they should be a bit longer.

[klanibal]

Good job...U have style

[plyczkowski]

Wacom Intuos 1.

[Blahst3]

I could point out alot but honestly its great seeing as to how you did it on the computer with a mouse... Haah I find it so much harder on the computer then I do paper and pencil.

[plyczkowski]

It's not done with a mouse, it's done with a tablet, google it up.

[Blahst3]

See I wouldnt know I dont use this program it looks like you would use a mouse.....But seeing on how you drew it There are things you could have touched up there...

[grayreign]

why dont you just draw with your hand.

[plyczkowski]

It is drawn by hand.

[yourok18]

COOL
