Hello people!

This is the 3rd part of the video screen capture I've done while painting "Hanagumori" : http://dianae.deviantart.com/art/Hanagumori-70756649

There are 8 parts total.

Part 8 http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=N7fBWM2-14E

This painting has been done in order to write a digital painting tutorial explaining the techniques I'm using to paint. This is just meant to be informative.



Tools used : Photoshop CS3 (but older versions can be used too, of course) and a wacom intuos 3A4 graphics tablet.

Total painting time : approximately 12 hours, but I've changed the speed of the video (1500%).

There are 8 parts total.

I've not put music so you can listen to your favourite music while watching it. I might write and record a specific soundtrack later if you feel that it really needs music, but this is just an informative video, not something artsy at all.

I hope that it can be useful, if you have any question, you can leave them in the comments, I'll try to reply the best I can.

Sorry for my bad english... I hope you'll understand though :)

your patience must be endless o_o

11 hours approximately

Many thanks. As a beginner in this medium, you've helped me a lot. I was never really good at blending but hopefully I'll get the knack of it after I've read through your tutorials and practiced my skill.Thanks!

I'm glad this could help :)

Keep practising, that's the only way to acquire a good technique... you'll be able to blend colors very fast then :)

[teixen1]

wow, this is amazing!

[LadyCupid190]

Thanks to you I learned not to be afraid of messing up and drastically cut down on the number of layers I use. Between the liquify tool (which I first started using because of you) and confidence in my skill I feel that any mistake that I might make can be corrected (albeit with patience).

Still a begginer but I feel like slowly but surely I'm improving. I'm really greatful to you and others like you who take time to make these videos.

i looked to the right and saw it was one layer, and went O GOD PLEASE DONT MESS UP

[Jeshuchan]

do you by any chance use references with your work?

[JIDaze]

you're a big inspiration to me

[kahraman1492]

Congratulations Diane. I bought a graphic tablet and a graphic program and i will go on. I like your style. I am the fun of Stephanei Valentine but your style is a bit different. I like your technique. Why dont you build a web site. I am looking forward to it.

How do you blend those colors in photoshop!? D:

Im having a hard time blending colors there, so I use a different program to paint and enhance stuff in photoshop.. O_O If I try to blend things in photoshop, they just overlap each other..no blending at all D:

@Androlola : Read the tutorial and you might find out :P

[Androlola]

Why did you go into black-white once?

(ok, that were many questions :)

[Androlola]

I see you paint it totally in ONE layer :O what is this one special layer for?

Did you use some special brushes for hair, or did you just take a soft round one?

At the fist video, when you started to draw the second eye, how did you created this wire?
