RE: SPEED PAINTING OF MY FIRST DIGITAL PORTRAIT ON PROCREATE (VIDEO)

in #art7 years ago

Very cool! That's awesome that Procreate allows you to capture the process easily. In regards to the critique you asked about, a few tips you could try is maybe starting on a medium grey background in the beginning. Looking at it I think you could push your darkest darks a bit to make some of the forms pop a bit more and starting with the base being in the middle of the value range can help with that. That's mostly it, I really like the color variety you added in the skin. Looks really nice! Hope you keep it up :)

Yes it pretty much records by default. Really easy to use.

You are 100% right about the range of value, and I will definitely start with a midtone background next time. It was kind of an after thought here. Value is something I frequently have a problem with. lol When I first started painting a few years ago I did the opposite. Everything was all darks and dark midtones no highlights. I'm still working on the balance. I kinda skimped on the hair and there definitely should have been some darker darks there.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out.
