I like Steve Huston's style but I find it hard to imitate digitally. Is there a digital artist that is similar to him but uses digital methods instead of Alla prima oil painting I use csp btw. Should I change software in order to get a closer texture to oil? Can I use a standard round brush or do I have to use special colormix settings in order to get the desired effect
>>7982384Yes, with a lot of blending
Probably need something like Rebelle, or heavy textured brushes.
>>7982384Honestly being able to blend all this hues especially the gray on the chest to make it look like there's reflected light is pretty genius
this board is never getting out of /beg/ hell holy fuck
>>7982384they look lole they have got extra thick gloves on
>>7982384Yes, you can get a very similar look. Use Rebelle as it's the only art program that closely mimics the feel of painting traditionally. Additionally, Court Jones has a lot of videos on his YouTube channel talking about approaching digital painting in Photoshop from a tradionalist approach (minimal layers, how to think about colors, brushes, texturing, etc).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAVOnbRjodMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCbOy5dYfJA
there's some anon on here that rendered like huston, don't know if he's still around. it was the figure drawing thread iirc
>>7982506Fuck you talking about?
>>7982533the absolute permabeg retard posts itt, not that you'd understand
>>7982384you just KNOW he has a digital bara alt somewhere
Why not just do trad?
>>7982559Cuz it's fer the goyim
>>7982511Mind linking his posts?
>>7982384If you want this blended look digitally just turn down your brush opacity or set it to pen pressure, it's how Craig Mullins and most of these realist guys workPersonally I dont really find replicating traditional media digitally all that worthwhile, I prefer playing into its' strengh, easily achievable hard and airbrush edges, content-aware effects and such
>>7982384I can say my rendering style has been somewhat been influenced by Hustons work...but not trying to nail it identically. Skipping the higly stylized bravado brush marks, atleast in this piece. This is done in Krita, a free digital art program. You can ask me if you want to know more.I painted this in the "traditional" mindset. One layer, only brushes etc. to keep it as simple as possible.
>>7982384Damn forgot to attach. (these captchas suck)>>7984883
>>7984885People keep saying "blended" but in fact it's not..it lacks the very soft blending usually found in digital art. These are more textural and impasto marks, and abstraction. With some "Sfumato" thrown in, and a lot of suggestive forms. Shadows are lacking in detail, to make it more chiaroscuro type approach. With a subdued monotone type of colour palette, with some complementary color scheme, blue and yellow. Also warm light vs cold shadows..>>7982384
>>7982384>Can I apply Steve Huston's painting techniques to digitalI am not an expert on digital but I doubt it. There are some rare cases where digital artists are somehow able to make it look very trad but it requires a ton of workarounds. Not to mention thick alla prima oil... that would be quite difficult to achieve I think.
>thick alla prima oilholy fuck stop posting
>>7984885Wow great work anon! I'd love to learn more. Would be down to exchanging socials? Add me on insta if you wantHere's my art account@____h3sh___jrI could give you my twitter or discord if you want too
>>7984885How do you select your hues and their respective shadowsWhenever I paint in anything other than gray scale my shadows look off, I feel like I'm never selecting the right shadow color
>>7985130a shadow is just a plane reflecting light other the main light, you determine the shadow color the exact same way you determine the light color, but using secondary lights
>>7982384>>7982480>>7982508Pay for an ad, you bloody bastard
>>7984885Holy shit saved. What's your blog, I'd love to see a process video of this
