Estupendo amigo me encanta !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi ! Thank you so much for your videos, they are so helpful ! Your art is a great inspiration for me. Do you think to make a video about the construction of a portfolio ? Because, I work to be a concept artist and do you think it’s better to have more sketches design in the book, or more polished images ? Thank you again Have a nice day !
Perfect as always ! So inspiring and awesome. Keep doing this type of thing it’s pure gold for us ❤
he says : i hope you like this.... me who is learning concept art.. and can't find the right words to describe how much i loved this!!
I finally spent a weekend to finish this practice. Thanks Grady, once again I learned more things from you. Never realize how importance the notan sketch can be. Because during my work, some colleagues might find it's kind of a waste of time painting from black and white , more of like an old school style for them. 🤣 Especially when u can creat a desigh with Blender. But this vd shows how critical the fundamental is. From what I've learned from this, I think notan sketch is focused on the abstract SHAPES and value groups between light and dark which can provide u a more clear head before you go futher into the value sketch.
Really glad to see you back :)
My wife is wondering where the original reference image is from? Great painting!!!
A great video. Creatives of any type need to know that they aren’t the only ones who run into fear while trying to do their work. Have you read the book “Art & Fear”? I really thought your final image nailed the scale relationships of the forest, tower and single traveler. The tower though, due to the lighting, almost looks inviting, compared to the darker areas of the forest. I wonder if something can be done to add a greater sense of menace to the tower itself? I think maybe it looks like there are no dark, enclosed spaces left, it’s all open to the light. I’ve run into abandoned houses in wooded areas, and it was the enclosed spaces that were the most creepy. But good work, you really put across the value of being methodical, and not getting ahead of yourself, while still allowing for many creative iterations. Definite “subscribe”!
Wow thank you, it looks great. ;3 I hope there will be part 4 too... hehe
thankssss
The combination of your art, the music and your soft voice explaining what you do inspires me so much. Thanks for the upload!
Thanks! This means a lot, as I have often felt very self conscious of my voice haha Thanks for watching :D
couldn't have said it better :)
Great to see you back Grady, congrats on the move!
Thanks so much :)
The video was amazing and very useful, and as a student would be awesome to hear your career advices! I tell myself if my art one day ever hits your level, I would be extremely happy! If you ever think of making a course, let us know, looking forward to see the book!
Thanks :D I will be launching a Patreon hopefully in the near future and there I’ll be able to go much more in-depth and specific as well as share career advice, and help with portfolios etc. I just want to make sure I have the time to offer something of value before I make it official, but we’re getting there!
ok this was poggers
I love your Concept Art videos
Thank you :)
I can't be the only one who replayed that part. It's addicting!
Amazing video, I was wondering if your brushes are available anywhere?
Loved the video. very clear
Thanks! Glad it was clear
One of my main issues with backgrounds unlike character design has always been layer management. I always second guess myself if I should add some details or whatnot on the smae layer, or a new one to keep it nondestructive. And at times my foreground, midground and background come out looking like paper cutouts. Then there's also the composition aspect and even though I know it's about telling a story I feel it always fails in that department.
Thank you for making this series. I'm a beginner concept art student and your process really clicked with me. I feel like learning at school and learning your process is a nice combination of the technical and artistic approaches and both are helping me a lot. Thank you again.
Great to hear! Thanks so much for this :D I wish you the best in your studies
What a lovely new tool for the tool belt. Thank you!
Thanks for watching :)
Lo-fi Skyrim!
Happy New Home! Very useful video, this one.
Thank you!
super duper helpful!!
Thanks!
cool way of colorizing! can it work in similar ways in procreate?
Thanks! I am not terribly proficient with the adjustment tools in procreate yet, but yes I've used the gradient maps in procreate the same way :D The interface is quite different though, so it functions a bit differently than in PS. The other thing is that photoshop allows you to create gradient maps as a layer, which can be turned on/off and there can be multiple. As far as I've found, the gradient map function in Procreate will only allow you to adjust the painted layer directly.
ah nice I see. will definitely start playing around with it. thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next one!
Great work!!
Thanks so much!
Awesome, Grady! Thank you!
Thanks to you! As always :)
adding color in digital has been a major hurdle for me,thankfully people give helpful advice abt this,thnx :D
Yea it's a tough thing to get the hang of. Thanks for watching :D
Hi Grady… you don’t really need to have a camera to record yourself talking. It takes a chunk out of the painting workspace, it puts more stress on you, and it can be distracting when we should be watching the workspace. We need to hear your voice clearly, and you need to convey useful information. You need to give us the best possible view of your workspace so we can actually see the process. So, having yourself in the corner of the screen adds nothing useful, but does have drawbacks. In many of the painting tutorial channels I watch I’ve never seen what the narrator looks like… the whole screen is dedicated to the painting app and supporting material, which is perfect. Thanks for taking the time to instruct all of us!
Hey man, thanks for the kind words and the feedback. Honestly I have been wondering about this as well and trying to find the right balance. I was thinking maybe for the art portions I will remove the face cam, but still have an intro and outro like in my more recent videos (this one is quite old and I didn't really do any editing/proper camera setup). The reason for the video in the first place is that I personally like to see the faces of creators as it makes me feel more connected with their perspective and them as a person. I really appreciate your feedback, and I will certain think more on this. I think you make some really good points. Thanks for watching :D
Hi. Portuguese trying to learn concept art and struggling. Just found out about you and this video. Great help and useful insights. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
Oh dude. You are so inspiring. This is the best way to learn about conzept art. Sharing your Ideas, your flaws, your "mistakes" and how to solve that is just the best thing I have ever seen. Keep it up. Its just perfect. Thanks for sharing your Art
Your channel is a gold mine <3
I know this is 2 years old but it's helped me SO MUCH, thank you for posting it
nice :)[
Incredible work and video. Thank you for sharing your process! May I ask what tool were you using on 15:14?
Very beautiful. Thanks so much for showing us your processes.
tiny bit concerned that you seem to have disappeared? hope things are okay
Hello! No need for concern, work has just been really busy and I have just moved to a new house so things have been quite chaotic. I'll have new stuff soon! Thanks for looking out for me :D
Looking forward to part 3 of this series!
Hi Grady, first of all thanks for your videos. You probably couldn't notice this comment but still I choose to share my real thoughts about this channel. Me as a rookie game artist have watched all of your videos carefully, thinking about how am I gonna sharp my skills through your vids. It's probably one of my best surprise this year to find an artist who is willing to teach things with all detailed art skills, painting process and his own thoughts about how to be a better professional concept artist. (I paid a lot to learn game art 2 years ago then I found I learned much more from you XD) Ngl I was at an emotional low point few months ago , starting to doubt my abilities of being an artist, questioning myself should I stick on the game industry or just go back to be an architect again. It's your words remind me of my passion for painting. Just keep practicing before thinking about money or finish smt really cool stuff. Once again thank you ,wish you all the best!
Thanks so much for this, it really made my day :D I am so so glad anytime I hear from passionate people like yourself who are resolved to keep pushing forward with their art :) The path is full of doubt and sometimes it can feel hopeless no matter what level you are at, but there are always breakthroughs around the corner if you keep moving forward. Thanks again, and I really wish you the best.
this looks so cool
Great artistry! Do you use a tablet and stylus or mouse for your work? if tablet/pen, can you share what you use :D
Thanks you❤
Just wandered to encounter your channel. Very inspiring! I really want to focus on studying environments while on school break so ty for these tips!
Is it weird i play your video as my snooze sounds. LOVE YOUR WORK!
I watched every single videos of yours in just a couple of days. Just wanna say a huge thanks for all the great tips and tricks that you're sharing. That's sincerely extremely helpful to watch. I can finally say that I understand some concepts that I struggled with for years. Thank you so much, you are a really good teacher (and artist in general) !
I've been through several of your videos and loved them all! I had been looking for more real-time painting videos. Timelapse is great but sometimes I want to be able to see the deliberations and experimentation as they happen. I'd say even if you don't feel up to commentary, if you recorded your work and just selected certain phases to keep in realtime, timelapsing the rest, and upload it with music it would be great IMO. The commentary is good but I know it takes a certain energy and thoughtfulness you might not always have while deep in work.
I’m just starting out and just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. The video composition, guidance, and music choices are so dope. Thanks man.
Third time, and I will rewatch until the magic dissipates! Amazing work, I can feel this piece of art! Thank you for your art, Grady! Beyond inspiration!
Loved this study, bought a print of it on your artstation
wow i love it
