@davidrevoy thank you so much for sharing this. I wish I had this skill set. I think your artwork is so beautiful! It’s nice to see how the creative process is broken down.:ac_heart:

Gorobar

@davidrevoy wow, great. You even did the landscape version 😀

David Revoy

@gorobar 😉 Yes, and thanks for suggesting it, it was a good idea 👍

@davidrevoy

I guess that the "Fête des lumières" coming to your hometown, may be an inspiration source :)

David Revoy

@Vor Hehe, I saw it from the outside but never visited in. I had a quick look: festivaldeslanternes-montauban , 19€ the entry, or 16€ for those with an address in Montauban (😅 Ha oui, quand même!). Maybe I'll visit, it's until 5 February.

Artha

@davidrevoy That shading is gorgeous!

And I don't even know how to start learning shading.

David Revoy

@Artha Thanks! I made a tutorial, but it's more about a technic I have using specific layer blending mode with Krita, than really the fundamental (values/light properties/color theory), it's here youtube.com/watch?v=7FRyAiLIGw , I use here the same method, just without the line-art.

@davidrevoy … and I have my new desktop background! Thank you!

@davidrevoy Nice. I love the expressions. Pepper is over the moon about that star, while the dragon is still trying to figure out what he thinks about all this. It's brilliant.

@davidrevoy c’est fantastique! Simplement superbe. Bravo et merci de partager!

@davidrevoy It’s super interesting to see how much the 4th step adds to the atmosphere of this piece although it already looks quite finished after shading.

David Revoy

@yellowjitsch Thanks! Yes, it's difficult to jump from step 3 to 4; because my eyes spent hours reaching step 3 and after that, recovering a fresh observation skill on the result and deciding what color filter could enhance the piece is difficult. Somehow, I found that turning the rendering to black and white (with this tip youtube.com/watch?v=FTvVBi1Vo7 ) at this step let me more easily spot if my values are 'washed/dull' and not deep and with a certain 'luminosity brilliance/glossiness.
