 I swear to god. The moment I start recording, this noise have- Okay, you're gonna have to deal with the background noise because I have to get this video done this week And I can't keep waiting for them any longer. Hi, Bidgets. My name is Frustration right now clearly. I actually think I need to cool off because it's a little It's a little hot in here. Don't you think? Oh, what's this you see? Oh, just a little thing I've been working on for a few months. Yeah, that's right This is a fan a Chinese fan Vonte let her she know you guys know I used to have that big fan that I always bring in that was red and fluffy Well, I couldn't bring that to college here because I wanted to keep it at home Well crowd made the merch company I'm with they asked me like think of a product that would be new That would be unique for your channel and I said can you make fans? Is that a thing that youtubers can do because I think only Jeffree Star has made a fan before Because the only merch fan that I've seen was a thorb fan done by Trixie Mattel and lo and behold crowd made came through and now we have My eyes on a rainbow fan. You can get them at the link right here and in the description below They only have a limited quantity so get them while they last and yeah, you can just be sassy whenever you want And I know pride month was over But a lot of people asked me to bring back that pride merch and I can't actually but they said I could make this And I thought it'd be nice for you guys to you know Be sassy anyway, just want to thank crowd made and once again. Thank you guys for supporting me back to the real video I'm in college now and I have to do projects if you don't know I'm at nyu tana school of engineering So I'm studying idm which is integrated digital media. It sounds confusing But basically I learned graphic design. I learned how to code and make images and you know Draw stuff from code. I learned how to prototype things. I learned the laser cut printer and the 3d printer It's a lot of fun stuff also Yes, my room expanded I could do another room tour because there's twice as much stuff already and for my ideation class I had to study an artist So I chose timberton because one I love core lines so much as a kid everyone thought it was weird and scary I thought it was cute and I also like his style of drawing in general So part one was researching his creative process and how he designs his characters how he comes up with these movies part two Was creating my own version you could basically do anything But you have to follow his creative process and I painted these two things I recorded the process of me doing it, but it's mainly just the time lapse There is no room in this room to do it like if you look at this image I used up a whole lounge and table like I can't fit it here. I'm sorry I know you guys don't mind voiceover. So this is basically what I'm going to be doing So yeah, let me show you how I got to here So I first started making sketches and I threw the sketches away Don't kill me but it did like two or three sketches of each painting to get a feel of What I want the character to look like and I'm going to start with this because it seems More simple and you need to know this character before you get to the actual painting So if you can't tell this is me in timberton style I wanted to imitate his style of art because that was the assignment And I also wanted to try to put characteristics of myself into this character Not just physically but emotionally and personality wise because that's what timberton does. That's his creative process So unfortunately, his name is cancer and I can explain bear with me here. I'm referencing the horoscope not the condition This guy is really into horoscopes. He has a moonshirt which is inspired from that green moonshirt I always wear he doesn't have a lot of friends because they all think he's weird for reading horoscopes And he's usually tired and up at night constantly studying them Which is why he has frizzled hair and like those droopy eyes and he's always reading more Which is why he's a book also timberton just draws his characters like long and skinny So this is you know my skinny legend version. I wish I was this tall But that's not gonna happen ever and trust me This took four or five tries to get it right because I had to look at core lines Character and I had to look at the characters from the corpse bride and number for christmas because I don't draw in this style I don't know if you could tell but I've never done something like this before now We get on to this painting in short is basically cancer on a planet and he's fighting a snake That is what you get when you first look at it But this is supposed to be this is supposed to be the cover art for the movie because timberton makes movies I didn't do a whole storyboard, but I have like the plot in my head So in almost every timberton movie He transports the character to like a whole new world or it's just a fictional world in general And I wanted to do that for this cancer lives in a nuclear family, which we don't know what that means There's just the regular house regular family since he reads a lot He found this old book about horoscopes and he reads about this 13th horoscope named ophiacus. You don't know That's a new horoscope that no one accepts like not me at all But I wanted to include that in the plot so he reads it and then he gets transported Coraline style to this new planet pretend there was a portal in the book and he's just sucked into it This sounds like a stupid fanfiction. I realized then he gets transported on this random planet I didn't name the planet yet and it's supposed to be Like greek feeling that is why there's columns here. And yes, I know the columns don't really Show death and I realize that now, but I was supposed to make these longer and these ones fatter But I'm sorry. Don't kill me. I'm self-taught, please So I wanted the horoscopes to all be their own characters. I didn't want them to just be like Stars or constellations. They're all based off a creature and I wanted them to look Human-like I didn't get to design them But I wanted them to look like gods that have traits of their, you know Animal or creature like I'm not going to have a crab as a character It's going to be a guy who maybe has one crab arm But a reason why I chose a snake for ophiacus is because ophiacus is known as a serpent bear And I thought in what world is a guy holding a snake intimidating like you see that on a boardwalk At jersey short every single day. So I wanted to do something more intimidating That's like a basilisk or just a big anaconda. So I chose this Yeah, it looks less. You'll like because that's the point it is a villain and it's supposed to be A god too and because none of the 12 horoscopes want a 13th one This is considered the villain because they want to be accepted in that's basically the whole plot So now I want to talk about how I painted this thing So I first started off by sketching every single thing which I have learned is a waste of time Please don't please tell me the way they paint like if you are an actual painter Please let me know because I find that every time I sketch it out I just end up painting over it and I can't see my pencil marks. I already had sketches before so I didn't take that long, but I found that making the snake look like it was protruding and like going towards cancer was very hard So I just try to make the snake get smaller and smaller and like disappear almost back here I didn't think I got the point across after sketching I started off with the galaxy background and I've done galaxy colors before But I wanted to mute the colors a little more because that's what Tim Burton does He doesn't use bright colors. Usually he tries to mute them down and make them more earthy and like dull But he also adds a pop of color like with Coraline's jacket. I don't know. It's confusing It was a lot to research But if you look at it from far away, it kind of all blends in which is the point I took a blue purple red and a magenta. Yes, I know magenta and blue make purple now Thank you for the 5,000 comments I just placed them around in splotches and added black to like make it more dull and dark That wasn't hard to do except I got upset because I realized it was painting over my sketches And I was just wasting my time Shit while I was doing it and I don't like that. I had a guide on it What's up? You're in the video now And everyone stop copying After lining that jar I wanted to outline the snake in black So I took a little bit of pencil to guide myself and then just cover this all in black And then I realized you couldn't see the snake at all It looked like a black cloud at this point because I made the background too dark and I regard that a little bit So I thought why not just outline it because I know how to outline that's something I can do at least But I had to let the black dry So then I started doing the constellations and I wanted to do real horoscopes obviously because it's not horoscopes So I chose cancer. I think this is Libra Let me know if you know these two I forgot and I just did it by taking the end of a paintbrush and like dotting it around and at some point I closed my eyes because psychologically your mind is inclined to make them look like they belong there But stars are random So I forced myself to do it as random as possible And the best way to do that is to not see and then I messed up here because I made a dot way too big So I had to improvise just do Libra there And after that I did the Planet part and I wanted to do a spotlight on Cancer so you could like tell this is the main character and since Tim Burton does like This sounds bad, but messy painting sometimes that sounds like it's a bad thing But I'm trying to say like he doesn't make every line crisp Sometimes it's a little bit like this so it looks more scary looking It's a good style and I wanted to do that So I just started off by painting the edges first with black and then as my paint dry I would just scrape it up towards the center Also if you look closely you'll see that he still has like some pencil marks because I just literally painted Through the sketches with white and I realized that the white blended with the pencil graphite that sucked But I now know not to do that and the reason why I don't really record me painting stuff is because it takes Literally forever. I think this took four hours And I don't really talk during it because if I talk I can't concentrate so outlining was just an hour of the mean Just Like this the whole time But my trick is to outline a little bit farther than what you would like so that if you make a line too thick You just cover it with black paint and this could work with any background Like if you chose to do a blue snake and you wanted to outline it with white We'll just cover the white with blue if you get too much and make the line as thin as possible and look even Because you're lying to yourself if you think I have a hand steady enough to outline like this Also, there's a symbol right here that is Ophia because it's a symbol It's a u that has a squiggly line going through it And I wanted that to be the pop of color and then I added it to his eyes too Which the eyes weren't supposed to have pupils efforts But I realized that if I didn't give him pupils you couldn't tell it was looking at cancer So I'm glad my friend caroline told me to do that and then I spent 84 years putting stars on this freaking snake I was like who the fuck thought of pusha pusha This is gonna take so long I don't even realize I didn't put any stars on the chin which makes me mad now By the way, I also outlined the snake teeth with black to make it sharp as possible And after that I added columns because I wanted the person watching this movie to realize that this is another planet Like you don't see columns like these on earth every single day This is almost supposed to be like an arena that The gods meet and I have only one reference and it's from maple story I will show the image here, but if you know pink bean final boss I like that arena and I wanted to look like this. That's the gamer coming out of me Anyways, I painted white instead of like traditional tan Column color tan doesn't it doesn't fit with the colors scheme I used and I wanted these to be like angled because if they're just straight you don't see depth Which is made me so mad because I realized it after I painted in white But I just added some random black strokes I literally took a paint brush and like dipped it in black then took some black off and then Also fun fact if you get those calligraphy pens that I talked about a long time ago on amazon I'll link them down below you can outline this and it'll dry like paint Which is so cool to me granted. Please spray this with acrylic sealer just in case I'll also link the paint I used and by the way, this was also drawn with the calligraphy pen And after that I just drew in Cancer and the whole time I was debating do I want to give cancer like color? Do I want to make him have a skin tone? Do I want to make him have his green shirt? And I thought no because I would take it away from the focus So I just did him in black and white and I think it turns out fine Most timber characters are very pale anyways And I drew him messy on purpose because I didn't want it to be like sleek Most of his characters look a little disheveled anyways And that's what I want cancer to be because I'm well I was very disheveled at this point because it was like 1 a.m And I forgot the shading technique, but I think it's crosshatch I just did it on this side to give him some more dimension. I gave him little pointy elf boots And that is the whole painting actually I think it fixed my hair I think the last time I painted before that was a month ago So it was a nice return to what I like doing in my free time Except I had to do it for grade and it was the day before But yeah, that was my whole project. I hope you guys liked it. I'll let you know my grade Hopefully it's good If you want to see more of the work I'm doing in college Just follow my tumblr right here.
