PS Gradient Map Pack for Patrons!

Hello! I've exported the photoshop gradients I used in the latest YouTube video! In the attachments below you can download the ".grd" file that contains all of my photoshop gradients (when you're choosing a gradient in Photoshop, you can right click inside the current gradient presets and select import [or use the little cog icon]). I'm also including the painting from the video before it has any gradient maps applied, so you can follow along EXACTLY if you want. Hope you enjoy!

Free Corel Painter Brushpack 2021 (minor updates)

Hello again! This is a slight update my publicly available brushpack for Corel Painter. It mostly just has a couple new brushes (including the "one-sided" brush, which is pretty fun for building forms). Also has some minor updates to older brush settings.Just download from the attachment and import it in corel painter (the option is inside the brush selection area).

Lateralus Pikachu Video

I made a quick video showing some of the process stuff for the latralus pikachu, it gets a little off the rails in the second half because I didn't record all of the finishing steps. Enjoy the trip.

Knytt Stories Level by sinix + egomassive

Knytt stories is a freeware game that was made by Nifflas in 2007. Shortly after, I made a quick little level test inside it, making a bunch of various little art as well. Over a decade later, I was contacted by a Knytt enthusiast known as Egomassive who found my level and asked if he could properly finish it. After a flood of nostalgia, I filled in a couple small gaps in the art and Egomassive put together a really fun little experience.The attached file is a full zip that contains our level plus the original freeware program by Nifflas to run...

My current Corel Painter brushes! (attachment)

As an ongoing thank you to everyone, I'll try to keep uploading any brushsets that I use for either Corel Painter or Procreate. (i'm still using the same old procreate ones from last year, so I'll update those eventually).In the meantime, if you have Corel Painter (any version past 2015 I believe), you can try out my brushset, which has some custom stuff, but also just compiles everything I use.(let me know if the attachment works, haven't fully tested it)

Sorry, I meant to get this uploaded earlier, but here are my current brushes I'm using in procreate. Still working on them, so will update this eventually! Please google how to install them if you're unsure... I'm sure that will be more clear than I could be.**minor issue with the "Round Opacity" brush, I messed it up without noticing... will update in the future updates, but for now, you can fix it by going into the brush settings, under "stroke", under "pressure taper", turn the amount all the way down**!! ...

Trying to provide more useful content to you all. The attached psd contains the full res of the lineart, base colors, and finished painting from the most recent anatomy quick tips on backs.

Here are the full res images that got saved during the most recent paintsploration. I've also included the "moonlight party" dance version that I messed around with for the video... because a few people asked for it.

Digital Dump (Jan 2019 #1)

Hello everyone! I'll be working hard this year to create a lot of new content, and while I'm doing that I'll try my best to always upload hi-res downloadable versions of any art to here. If I forget or there's a specific image that you wanted me to upload here in high res, feel free to ask on the Patreon Discord.I'm also sorry for the lack of paintover pals, the last months were a mess, but I still have the entries from 2 months back, and I'll hopefully be doing that belated video next week.

October 2018 updates!

Sorry for the lack of content the past 2 months. I've fallen into that annoying analysis paralysis trap where I wind up thinking about what I want to do, instead of just doing stuff.The video backlog is still looking the same.. planning to do an intermediate painting tips video, an anatomy quick tips on backs, and a design theory video.!! Important Note !!I'll be emailing out for Paintover Pals submissions today... be sure to check your emails if you're part of that tier. You'll have until the end of the month to get those in!Di...

August 2018 status update!

Hello everyone! I just wanted to offer an update on things. July turned into a mess because of some real life setbacks, but things have stabilized. Unfortunately, that put me super behind on videos. Here is the current lineup. I'm working on the Paintover Pals for the entries I received around a month ago. After that, I have a bunch of videos I'm hoping to work on. Another Anatomy Quick Tips and Design Theory will hopefully both be out this month, along with a video about stroke economy.Ideally, I also want to finally get grinding on th...

Chroma Corps Cadet (full res)

Here's the full image from the simple brush video. It's attached as a download. I would say this took around 3 to 4 hours to make. All done with the default photoshop hard round opacity brush.

Hi-Res Eyeballs!

I'm attaching the Anatomy Quick Tips painting from the eye video. Now you can study from it at maximum res while watching the video. If you guys are super interested in seeing one of these eye processes in real time, let me know which one!

Patreon Bonus Video [June 2018]

Here's a slightly longer form painting process with some talking. Still sped up, but only because I was working incredibly slow this time. If I get a faster painting, I'll try to post some real-time stuff sometime.Link: https://youtu.be/We1JOolgmK4ALSO: Attached the full res image if you want to download it.Feel free to let me know if you like these types of posts, or want something different.

Paintover Submission Email sent out!

If you're in the paintover tier, be sure to check out your emails (and spam folders) for an email from me regarding submissions for the next paintover video. No rush, you have until the end of the month.As a side note to everyone else, I'll let you know the current lineup for the youtube channel consists of a new Anatomy Quick Tips (eyes) and some more paintsploration and another general video on painting improvement stuff. So, I'm getting back to the pure educational stuff. Also, going to be posting more great stuff on here for all...

Allison Stokke photo study steps

I've been focusing on being as free as I can with the base colors... therefore, the whole image is really made or broken at that step.

Ani-May 2018 steps

I'll start posting more images like this, they might be helpful. The standard approach for most illustrations is just lines -> base colors (on multiply layer) -> flatten and paint it out.The base colors are most important, don't be afraid to go wild with them, lots of hue variations and experimentation.
