A finishable workflow
Added 2019-06-20 13:24:25 +0000 UTCSorry for the absence this month! I've been almost buried by frustrations of failed attempts. This week I finally got a result which seems finishable and I want to make a quick WIP post of it.
æ¹å‹¢é€™å€‹æœˆå¹¾ä¹Žæ²’有更新...ï¼ä¸€åº¦é–‹å§‹æ€è€ƒæ˜¯å¦è¦æš«æ™‚放下å¸æ’畫這æ¢è·¯ï¼Œä½†å›žé¡§åŽ»å¹´è‡³ä»Šçš„嘗試，還是有些許進æ¥ï¼Œæ‰€ä»¥ç¡¬è‘—é 皮一直在實驗和糾錯。於是在這星期...其實已經è¬å¿µä¿±ç°ä¹‹ä¸‹ï¼ŒèŽ«å其妙試出了一個看似å¯ä»¥å¥½å¥½å®Œç¨¿çš„方法。
I twitted an earlier version 2 days ago:
兩天å‰æˆ‘在推特上貼了張更早的版本：
And mentioned that I was adapting to a new workflow: doing sketching/shading/rendering at the same time. To be more specific, starting as a very rough sketch, then painting above the sketch, and while painting I still constantly switched to sketching/shading by creating new layers. If I'm happy with the process, all layers will be merged into one, and then repeat.
然後æ到這張圖的作法是「åŒæ™‚ã€è™•ç†è‰ç¨¿/é™°å½±/ç°éšŽã€‚更詳細點說明，先畫個éžå¸¸ç²—略的è‰ç¨¿ï¼ŒæŽ¥è‘—在è‰ç¨¿ä¸Šæ–¹é–‹æ–°åœ–層慢慢補上陰影與ç°éšŽï¼Œé‚Šç•«é‚ŠæŒçºŒé–‹æ–°åœ–å±¤æ·»åŠ æˆ–ä¿®æ”¹è‰ç¨¿ï¼Œè¦ºå¾—效果ok後會將所有圖層åˆä½µï¼Œç„¶å¾Œå†é‡è¤‡ä»¥ä¸Šæµç¨‹ã€‚
Surprisingly by this method, not only I'm gaining much more flexibility of painting, but also I don't need to heavily rely on references because all errors are highly fixable and the result still remains controllable. All I use for this work so far are 2 small heads & 2 anatomy figures on my desk. Anyway, I'll keep finishing this work before the end of this month!
本手法的最大優點：æµç¨‹æ›´æœ‰å½ˆæ€§ä¸”容易修改，ä¸éœ€è¦å¤ªéŽä¾è³´åƒè€ƒè³‡æ–™ï¼Œå› 為大部份å•é¡Œéƒ½èƒ½å¤ æŒçºŒä¿®æ£ã€‚ç›®å‰ä½¿ç”¨åˆ°çš„åƒè€ƒè³‡æºå°±æ˜¯èººåœ¨æˆ‘桌上的兩顆å°é 雕和兩隻è—用解剖模型。總之本月çµæŸå‰æœƒç¹¼çºŒå°‡æœ¬åœ–完æˆï¼

Yeah they are probably very used to this method, or this workflow just matches their preference of painting. I guess it utilizes the biggest benefit of CG workflow: you can modify everything at anytime. But I somehow need tons of time to adapt to it 😅
2019-06-30 09:11:06 +0000 UTCI have seen artists who use this method while streaming and I feel that they are just super relaxed when they paint? They seem to do everything by instinct and they don't worry too much about the technicalities of the drawing.
2019-06-25 13:20:10 +0000 UTCI'm guessing this kind of workflow is used mostly by concept artists. I still have some doubts about this approach, but the values and lighting work so much better this way. It took me years to adjust my habit haha, and I can totally feel your pain if not starting by drawing a thorough sketch😔 I also using some small tricks to help me not being lost in the painting process, which I plan to discuss in the next process post😉
2019-06-21 12:20:55 +0000 UTCThis sounds really advanced! I find that my workflow works best when I have everything sketched out thoroughly because I tend to get lost in the more painterly environment OTL However I should definitely try something out of my comfort zone TvT It's awesome to see you developing new approaches, can't wait to see more of it! <3
