Description I am 30456% done with stupid mood lighting


Time Taken: About 4 Supernatural episodes

Tools Used: Photoshop and ZERO SKILL 8D


I DON'T THINK I EVEN GOT BASIC ANATOMY RIGHT; Call this the missing ship from the kissing prompt because I ship every single Levi ship really hard since I DON'T THINK ANY OF THEM WILL LAST *crying laughter* But no seriously just trying to digital paint here, lalala; I forgot to remove the texture from my brush (if using 1 layer is a crime, then so is using 1 layer and 1 texture ) and stuff just... I don't know how layer blending options work okay. I know some stuff glows and some stuff darkens but then you put different stuff together and I just sit in the corner and cry  

Also I'm shit at backgrounds I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW ANYTHING WORKS IN PHOTOSHOP OKAY EVERY TIME I TRY TO CHANGE THAT I JUST REMIND MYSELF THAT THESE RESULTS ARE WHY I KEEP GOING FOR TRADITIONAL MEDIUMS My gallery goes to hell when I pull out the graphics tablet

ALSO! I PAINTED IT IN THE EXACT SIZE YOU SEE HERE! HOW @$*(#ING CLEVER OF ME

LOL if using 1 layer is a crime, then I am a very serial offender XD (and I'm not sure what that makes using zero textures, because I have no idea how)


not that I am in any way qualified at all to give advice about using any media (I don't even know how to disclaimer this hard enough XD), but it sort of looks like you use Photoshop with the same technique that you use traditional media? Not that this is bad, but if that's not the effect that you're going for? I actually like the way you do cloth here, especially Levi's shirt. Eren's jacket could maybe use a wider range of colours? arghhh I'm sure you've looked at tonnes of tutorials anyway, but yeah. Obviously I'm not going to try and tell you how I paint, except in a 'here's what NOT to do' kind of way, because 1) I have no method and 2) whatever remains is highly inefficient and inadvisable (see preceding comments about serial offences).


ahhhh looking at it now, maybe it's that there's too much white? Particularly in the skin? (even though the lighting is white, so maybe that's just how it should be)


Anyway, I still think it looks cool so you should stick at it! and experimenting around with different styles is cool, so lots of kudos


(wow, that was a really long comment that actually has zero substance to it ^^")

i actually meant 1 brush, because I'm now addicted to using a new layer every time I fiddle with opacity (which is all the time )

You're probably right actually, I just realised I use everything the way I use colour pencils and COPIC markers even if the other medium has very different techniques (watercolour, digital painting argh) and the cloth was a lucky stumble it seems, because I know how to shade cloth, I just can't seem to do it in a way that matches the skin and non-existent background OTL RE: the white, I don't know, lighting is usually at the point when im just about to give up, so I haven't paid much attention still, thanks for pointing everything out (because have i mentioned that you are way better at photoshop painting than me anyway and anything you say may as well be scripture? because I have now)

I will stick to it and hope it doesn't kill me out of frustration im actually on the mend with watercolours simply because my digital painting absolutely sucks
