Swan Lake Anime Fanart SpeedPaint

Here are the colors to go with my lineart tutorial of the characters Odette and Odile. I chopped the title off at the beginning *pout* Buuuut this is the 3rd time I've compressed this video, so c'est la vie. Sorry it's soooo fast - I had to squeeze 5 hours worth of work into less than 10 minutes, so if you have any questions about what's going on, please feel free to ask me.

This is inspiring. I sketch weird creatures a lot. But I always want to bring it into Photoshop to make it look 3d ish. It looks disastrous. I have to try. I guess you have to know all the brush and presets quite well to work it.

@chinaahpek Not really, you can learn them as you go. It took me a while to get as comfortable with photoshop as I am now, but there a re a lot of awesome tutorials out there.

JESUS TAP DANCING CHRIST YOU'RE AMAZING

[ToAsTy42o]

Yes, detail tutorial pls?

From what I see/hear, you took the lineart from previous tutorial, then...???

step 3: profit!

i assume this: new layer, underneath lineart, use brush tool for big areas (@ %60), then what looks like the smudge tool for shading? and dodge/burn to darken/lighten areas?

[FilmC0llect0r]

NICE ONE! Subbed ya!

[maribia96]

[maribia96]

how do you blend the lips of the first one? or just how do you blend colors?? (on pS)

[skipsverft]

Hi! Awsome drawings. How do you manage to smooth out the linework? I mean how do you create linework thats not hard edge, which parameters do you set to this end? Also, how big are your pictures usually when you dont work with vectors, I mean jpgs. Thanks a lot! M
