Digital Painting is a Pain
For maybe the past week, I've been struggling with digital art. We all know how unhelpful youtube tutorials are. Seriously, there's a difference between speedpainting and a tutorial; back to my point. Recently, I think I've broken through. I was going for cell shade, but it looks more painterly than anything.
Eh, it's whatever.
This is a character from my in progress comic. Her name is Mordecai.
Note: 7C is my discord tag. This belongs to me.
I'd say you're getting the hang of it really well. She's looking good already. Takes some learning curve to get into it. Heck, I'm still learning to master it, haha.
We all are. That piece took me maybe 5 hours and I didn't even acheive the cell shading look. Guess I still have learning to do lol
I see you're playing with the opacity setting, maybe lowering it more and layering the paint will produce the effect?
I've been playing with the opacity, what's really frustrating me is flatting.
Ah, yeah, flattening can get wonky. I tend to save as a png without first flattening, then work from the png so I can keep the layers separate in case I need to fix something later. Makes a lot of files, but those can be cleaned up when you're done.
