first link is quite an old resource but I still go back there time to time. The other links look great though. Thanks.

haha im pretty out of the loop with things like this :c

awesome links! The first one brings back memories of college.

Man, you got a job drawing. You are envied :) I've pored over the first link numerous times trying to glean as much as possible from it, and I shall do so even more.

The following links will surely help a whole bunch too. Thanks loads, Fabercastel.

np dude, take your time with the tut. :3

This is a great resource. Thanks for sharing!

Glad I could help! :o

As an addition I also would like to suggest www.ipgd.freehostia.com

It totally doesn't mention the sacrifice to dark powers. what a gip :P

It's in the fine print - go look!

I'll just get my magnifying glass and bend over for a while.

*wigglewiggle*

If I one day get the patience to sit still and try drawing I'm going to use these links as a tutorial. Merci for the links mr. Fab. :D

When I think about it.. Learning to draw properly is something everyone can do, it just takes time to get the "flow" of it. Some have it in their genes while others have to start from scratch. The key word is patience. And practice. And no evil clowns in the closet that keeps interrupting the learning process.

I remember in school when everyone had to draw a plate of fruit and I had big difficulties to get the fruit right. When I showed the finished result to my teacher she asked "is it a duck?".

Thanks man.
Also, those sculptures are awesome.

how can I trust an artist who posts his avatar upside dowwwn? :O

but seriously, that tutorial is awesome,
especially for someone who still gets stuck in flat shading (like myself)
also it was really well laid out and presented,
it's really easy to find the part that you need.

thanks man :)

and that was totally a boobie,
and a squatting fatty

aahahaha yes, i love that he used a boobie to demonstrate shinyness

I'm gonna have to bookmark this journal, as there is yet to be a fave-journal option, and also that these are some fantastic reads. :D

Thanks for the info!

yay! :o np

FFFFFF THANK YOU. I found that tutorial a long time ago, and completely forgot where it was or any key words to google it. I had wanted to show it to my friend, and now I can hooray! 8D

Choice!!

I tip my hat to you, sir.

And I wink with my monocle (and tweak my mustache) in response.

Good sir, I'm forever in your debt!

awesome!
that links help a lot!

so like
i have a problem with colour painting
how do you pick the colours (shadows, highlights)
and how do you blend the shadows and highlights
and how do you pick the colours to blend the shadows and highlights

this sounds like a troll but it is a serious question, someone answer

Ugh this too is my dilemma with painting.

I read that establishing values first in a desaturated color can help make sure your values are right before adding color, but then after that I try to add color with overlays and it looks like dogshit. Help.

The only answer I can think of is to just practice and see what works. EASIER SAID THAN DONE I KNOW

painting in real life is
10000x easier than this

If you can paint in real life, can't you color pick the right values digitally? I find it easier to paint digitally :B

kind of? i find it so much easier to mix darker/lighter shades with real paints,
i don't really know how to do that digitally!

INFORMATIUON!

thanks a lot, man! Really helpful stuff! o.o

Glad you could use the infurmation, furriend

Yeah I remember that first one. Man that tutorial gets around.

The best things in life usually do

Except for aids.

But aids isn't a good thing :c

I failed at a witty comeback.

-.-...................thankyou

np :3

i know some of these links, found those on conceptart.org , thanks for sharing anyway

That's the first time seeing that tutorial, so it's gonna help me majorly.

Nothing better than good photography to get the art juices flowing. I love a great photo.

Goooood, I'd been looking for this tutorial for, like, ever. Thanks for posting, it's amazing...
