Basically you use a reference picture and draw from it as fast as you can. That's a speed paint for me. Normally they are not refined. I will do a tutorial soon.

[Sparrowsmith]

ah thanks, and I'm looking forward to it.

[Hirei]

Yeah I'll probably put it up of the speedpaint I did on Ji Ah since I have the screenshots.

One of the earliest semi-realism i did back last year...

and here's a really rough overview of how I did Lee Ji Ah's portrait:

4 main steps are
-Base - Lay down base colors
-Color layer - Lay down shades
-Shape -Shape your features
-Blend - Blend it all

If you have any specific questions let me know.

[Trickster]

This topic is just...... breath taking. Seriously you're much better than you think! Outstanding.... it's all I can say.
In fact I dare say you're my new favourite artist

[Hirei]

@Sparrow: Actually I don't know the exact gender of the painting...many say it's an it.
@Username?: I'm flattered

Edited my post above with images of the powerpoint I used while doing a demo.

Here's Fenrir's WIP so you can see how I layered my colors.

30 min speedpaint done sometime in Dec:



lol...I see lots of mistakes.

[Nommy]

Yeah, some of your art IS lacking, but you really are much better than you give yourself credit for. And it's harder to spot the mistakes in your more recent works (and even some of the older).

Don't be so hard on yourself. You'll get there.

[Hirei]

Well it's easier for myself to be harder cause it'll just motivate me to work more XD..........plus it's really embarrassing when you say OMG THIS IS MY MOST AMAZING WORK, and people point out tons of mistakes.

I've seen people praise art that looks like it was done by kindergardeners. This is nothing new.

However, when I praise your work, you can be sure I mean it and that I'm not just being nice. If I tell you your work is good, it's because it IS good.

I know exactly what you're talking about, Abo. The work that I've seen ( which is just plain shit, sorry, had to say it) and still getting extravagant praise for it makes me want to vomit. They have no standards when it comes to art. And this isn't aimed at anyone at RRR, so don't take it personally.

Hirei, your work is simply gorgoeous. And you're only 18!! I visited your Deviant art account. Amazing stuff. Keep it up. And don't be too hard on yourself. I've seen farworse. Much worse.

[Hirei]

Done in painttool SAI, I want that program but my trial ran out D; Buy it for me please so I can make epic CG? ._.

[Harryb412]

Wow, you art looks really good!
That last piece is probably my fave.

But that Fenrir pic is really quite amazing. @_@

How long'd it take to make him?

[Hirei]

Fenrir or the one I just posted?

Fenrir took around 15 hours.

[lyla2284]

Wow, you must be blessed with infinite patience. That's what art teaches me, since patience is a virtue I have yet to learn. Btw, can you perhaps post some tuts on how you do your shading work? And can you draw like the legendary Tetsuya Nomura (FF character designer) ? Because I'm trying to emulate his style. Well... almost.

[Hirei]

I can't really emulate Tetsuya's style I'm afraid.

Besides it's best to create a unique style of your own. Don't you think

How much does it cost?

Love the pic, btw.
