I also apply the light on the figure to match the lighting of the model. ![]() I also work on the overall lighting as my Sky hue changes from top to bottom from dark to light, adding a little figure over there to complete the early information of my image. ![]() What I do in this phase is a quick use of the Lasso tool to draw my ground shape, and the use of Bucket tool to fill it with black. As you can see the placement of the outpost is exactly where my thumbnail is.Īs I continue painting, I try to keep my layers separated my sky from the model and ground area, focusing only on values. This is the very first step for me to start. I thought I’d use dark colors to make this piece a night time piece. The lighting on the model is really important, and I could take advantage of it to use it as a guide for the whole process. I also use a quick gradient to fill my background. Creating thumbnails and quick black-and-white sketches are so useful for the composition, placements of elements, lights and shadows, and so on.īefore I start to paint anything, I’ll put my exported PNG model to where I think is best in the image. For example, I saw this minaret model and I thought of creating an outpost based on Islamic architecture, so I exported the perspective that I wanted and used only the top part of the model, and after making a quick composition I thought of creating a thumbnail of my overall idea in my sketchbook. What matters is changing the course of that model into something useful for your own idea. One thing I can say is that there are tons of simple models that you can find online or create yourself. I saw this model on her computer and asked her if I could have her permission to change the model into something new for this month’s tutorial. Now, in this tutorial, I’m going to use one of the models that my wife created for one of her works. I usually start paintings based on sketches and thumbnails, or even based on photo references, so using 3D is a new thing for me as well. And the other software I have tried for a bit is MagicaVoxel. It’s good to mention that I’m not a 3D artist, and it’s not what I would always do, but usually for those who want some basic models to create a guide for shapes or mostly perspective, I can say Google Sketchup is a handy app that is so simple to use. ![]() In this tutorial, I’m going to use a basic 3D model as a base for my new speed-painting.
