This is the second in a small series of portraits I'm doing of my characters! I hope this process walkthrough helps some of you to understand how I approach lighting/shadows, and why it's super fast and easy to do it this way rather than a more 'traditional' approach.

Thank you fro watching!

wonderful video. thank you for all the explanations! i love seeing more people use clip studio. i'm just really happy with the program. i switched a few years ago after photoshop started to need more and more resources and managed to make my huge gaming pc (not even a laptop!) lag. ridiculous.
so anyway :) thank you so much!!
Hey! Was just wondering what brush you used? The one that seems to be written in Chinese, that was used broadly throughout the sketching and shading stages.
I completely agree with inking it first as well. It helps me see my shading to. Anyway thank you for the tutorial

Yo no cap, I would watch a whole ass anime about this character. This is literally art and a story in one, like his expression, his _EYES_ and even the clothes, makes me want to know who he is and what world or time he is from.
He looks like Trump but younger tho

thank youuu that makes me very motivated to continue writing my script x'D
"Coloring and Shading" starts at 8:56 (before that is stuff about sketching, inking, etc.)
thank you
I love you
should be a pinned comment
Thank you sir
LMFAO thank you!!!!
watching this has made me aware of how much I need to loosen up while drawing, I usually focus too deeply on certain mistakes and give up in tears
especially with hair, I will never understand hair
yes
same with the hair
I feel you... There was never a same method I'm using for hair Cuz I really cannot remember any method lol
if you're really disliking a drawing, just move on to a new one! since you've already recognized the mistakes you made the first time around, you can avoid them afterwards. as for hair, try to think of it as sections instead of individual strands! ;D
@@litsa9038 for me the shapes of hair just don’t feel right and I struggle with volume.
I think I just don’t understand how other people understand hair (?)
And I always just assumed I just had to force myself to finish everything, especially with digital painting. Thank you Beter
Not to be dramatic, but your art style is so pretty it literally made me pick up my iPad and start drawing 😭💛
SAME
Same like wtf??? It looks so glowy and polished😭

Hi Kat! Surprised to find you here!
omg girl I see you literally everywhere lmao
I LOVE how you did the lighting on his face, especially his eyes omg. and his fluffy hair is so cute 😤 👌 I always really enjoy hearing people talk about their characters and projects and having this in the backround while drawing is so nice
IKKK HES SO PRETTY😭
@@melsdrawingdiaries FRFR HE LOOKS SO COOL
We have the same pfp 👁️👄👁️
Seems we're simping today. I'm totally in.
what you said about stepping out and give the painting some time really made me realize that i dont have to do things in one sitting and call it a day... especially because i see stuff in my paintings that i dont like literally 5 seconds after i posted them on social media sobsss
Another way to get a fresh look quickly is to just flip the image horizontally once in a while. Stepping away is definitely a more thorough way of refreshing the mind though.
Professional illustrators spend up to 100hours on one work. made me realise i need to stop thinking i gotta finish one painting a day
*struts in after seeing thumbnail* Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between, the professional lazy procrastinator has arrived
(Also amazing job!!!!! Beautiful art! 💕)
you're at the right place my friend, I only have patience for figuring out the easiest and fastest ways to do things so I can continue procrastinating regularly :P (kinda jk but also tru lmao)
@@CosmicSpectrumArt continue procrastinating regularly??? xD didn't know that's a thing hahhahaha
I looked at the thumbnail and thought it was Draco Malfoy, but this was even better! It's amazing and it helped me so much with shading and highlighting!
13:39 explanation of the tools you use was very helpful! thank you so much!
The shading process was cool and all, but I'm still in awe over just how simple and elegant the hair turned out.
Just straight up gorgeous work.
As I was watching you draw the sketch I took a good look at his hair and thought, "huh, it looks like he cuts it himself". It's really cool how you're able to convey a detail as specific as that just in a portrait
I'm glad that was apparent!! :D thanks for commenting haha
I've been dragging my feet on rendering a piece because I just couldn't decide how I wanted to do it, this gives me some new things to try!

This is beautiful, your art and videos have been inspiring me to take my art journey more seriously and to do more studies and the like to grow in my art as much as possible. Thank you 😊
thank you for the comment!
You’ve made it onto my list of “artists that remind me why I love art”
Idk why but whenever I watch paint videos like this I'm like " yeah okay seems straight forward" and then halfway through I'm like "idk how we got here"
If this isn't a mood Idk what it is
i gasped when i saw the thumbnail. this piece is gorgeous! :O

I've always struggled with deciding between attempting a painterly style or keep inking, since it's my favourite part of the process, but now I realise I can do both! Thank you so much, I'll be trying this later!
I remember seeing this video at the time i was first exploring digital art, and the one step of "doing line-art even if you'll be painting or doing smth like painting" especially when using references helped me SO MUCH
before, it was so hard for me not to just copy the reference because i was painting directly over my sketch, this also helped me make my very first digital semi-realistic piece ever, and 'till this day i'm proud of it!
so thank you so much for sharing this info with us :)
yess that's so great to hear! It's crazy how much of a difference these little things can make eh xD
hot damn, the way the art went from just the flats to having so much depth is genuinely mind boggling. definitely going to try out this method in my own art!
i'm 13 seconds into the video.. and i hear FIONA and i was like :0
anyways, your art is so beautiful and stunning, i love it so much
Fiona is such a pretty name. I always loved names that give off "cottagecore " vibes
ME TOO. my name is fiona and i never see anyone else with the name and it threw me off guard
Such a lovely piece! Your voice is so soothing as well! Loved to see the process! ♥
I just LOVE your shading style! I would personally love to see more full illustrated videos with voice over, but vlogs sounds awesome aswell ❤️
me who wishes to be drawn in this art style, because I've simped for it now. Amazing work, I learned a lot!
OMGGGG.. I LOVE TO DRAW BUT I'M SO LAZY BUT PERFECTIONIST AT THE SAME TIME ~ THIS IS PERFECTO!!!! I NEED THIS 🔥🔥🔥😭💓💓💓
Aa I love this so much, my art style/process is kind of similar to yours but I can never spend enough time on my drawings, so your quick tips seem to be really helpful 💓 Thank you for this video, the drawing is ✨ stunning ✨
So I started following you years ago on deviantart...like...YEARS (Mellolover years) I remember sitting and reading all of the Fiona comics and *ehem* having a bit of a crush on Sock. Your art greatly inspired me and my style, so thank you for the impact you’ve had on me! 💕
Good god, thats so long ago x''D thank you sm for sticking around!! I'm so glad I was able to inspire you ;o;
As somebody who is incredibly new to drawing and digital art, this is incredibly helpful. This makes my drawings seriously pop so much more than what i had ever hoped. incredible. I had to watch this video again and again and again and again. I always go back to it to make sure im shading it similar to the way you do. Thanks!
This is one of the prettiest character portraits I’ve ever seen. His eyes pierce right into the soul!
This is the first time I've ever seen a character drawn with a actual Hazel eyes. And the colors are, solid and hard, but pretty accurate
You gave so much invaluable advice while drawing and using references, I can't thank you enough. I get stressed out whenever the coloring goes the wrong way and your outlook on things helped me realize that I need to loosen up A LOT and not try to copy what other artists do that just doesn't match with my style (aka lasso tool painting 😥)
You talking about losing the essential peice of a sketch after getting rid of lineart is exactly what I've been struggling with and I'm so glad I watched this video. Never knew anyone else struggled with this! I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate hyper realism with lineart because i always tend to end up getting rid of the line work completely and I hate the way it looks after that.
What a mesmerizing portrait. It's going to suck you into thinking about the character's thoughts, background and circumstances.
ayy, we share the same technique, i also do line art after a rough sketch, its just most comfortable way for me to shape my idea. what you said about losing the emotion/the original idea through painting is spot on.
Love all the flyaway hairs on this piece
Really interesting stuff. I will admit when I am in Clip Studio I just wing a lot of stuff using my intuition whilst telling myself to learn the tools some time.
I draw in pen/pencils on paper a lot, my colouring experience is mostly book form, reverse engineering and even miniature painting.
A process I found helpful was to draw on paper, photograph it and insert that sketch as my initial sketch layer. I just find it to be... More relaxing? Easier to access. To just doodle on paper and if it turns out well, transfer it to digital. Line it over and colour.
Colouring and shading is always magic to me at the moment though. I have done entire paintings just using one layer - bad idea generally but it was fun. Knowing when to create a new layer to do a step is the thing that voids me right now. I rather enjoy your idea of doing a lot of skin shading on one layer, rather than different tones done on separate layers.
also I love the brushes you’re using for sketching
Beautiful art! Reminds me of Saimain from back in the day… she had that gorgeous Line With Painting look, which I absolutely love.
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing your process.
My layers are pretty simple, too:
(Starting from the bottom)
0 - ref, scanned pencil sketch or desaturated, high-contrast photo.
1 - quick and dirty blocking with overlay to preserve ref
2 - quick and dirty sketch/trace.
(Here i hide the reference layer so i am forced to build a more unique image.)
3 - actual lines. (If I’m doing it for money, i will sometimes vectorize the lines in InkScape and reimport)
4 - the pickup lines. (Usually in red so I can distinguish them from the lines on Layer 3)
(Once the pickup lines are done, i change the color to match the lines on layer three, then merge.)
5 - lighting using overlay to preserve lines
(From here, i clean my color blocking layer up, mute the quick-sketch layer.)
6 - fine details!
7 - flat copy
(On this layer, i finally add a bokeh or dream filter in Krita.)
But dang, it’s never as good as your stuff! Lots of work to go!!! 🤣
I could watch you draw all day 😍
I only watched a minute of this video because after seeing your art it filled me with the motivation and desire to draw, I'm so sorry but it's going to take a bit for me to get through this video. The arts really good thank you
Wooow the grainy details on the hair is so beautiful
watching this is therapeutic, not gonna lie.
Was struggling to shade using this software since there's a pen, pencil and brush tool with a lot of presets. This video helped me a ton
The way you render... so magical. Feels like you're almost sculpting
Shadows and Lighting is literally my weakness. Thanks for this!!
Usually i put on videos in the background while I draw but I know I wanted to pay attention to this, your advice is really helpful and your art is so beautiful
thank you!! :D (I also have a ton of videos that just discuss art related topics that you can leave in the BG hahah)
This particular drawing made me feel some type of dramatic feeling i love it
So mysterious yet beautiful (ik if it is correct I mean it's pretty and mysterious at the same time )
the shadows are so interesting, love the dude tho such a good looking even with his "messy" hair XD thanks for the inspiration !❣
this painting is sooo beautiful. A small suggestion: maybe next time can you show the thought process of the color choice or how you chose the shading color? It would be superr helpful. I'm glad I found your channel!
Thank you! tbh 90% of the time I go with a very dark red (close to black, but not quite) for shadows, which is why i didn't explain much more than that. In a future video I can try to explain further though hahha, thanks for the suggestion :)
This video is a godsend.
I have a very line heavy style, inking has always been my favorite stage. And while I've dabbled into painting linelessly more as of late, I always find that I'm missing some of the essence of what makes my art recognizable.
I'm thinking of borrowing some of your process and see if that works better with how I naturally like to paint. It sounds like it should !
how tf am i only finding your channel now?????!!!!! friggin immaculate
I am so happy to see you drawing Fiona! I’ve been a fan of your artwork for such a long time- I preordered the comic with these guys in it when it first became available all that time ago. I still have the sticker because i could never bring myself to use it... You’ve been a great inspiration to me for many years, and surely will be for many to come!
Thank you for sharing this process and talking about it!
Thank you so much!! It's so nice to hear ;u; Thanks so much for the support back then, it really helped me to keep it going. I hope to finally dive into the new version of the story on a more regular basis this year and start actually executing the project :D
I’d like to thank you since I’ve been drawing for quite a while now but my shading is TERRIBLE- this video really showed me what I need to improve. Fiona looks amazing btw 💖
Nice video ! Gonna train now !! Thanks so much for showing us your process !
Have fun! glad you enjoyed it :))
I've been struggling with keeping my characters consistent and manageable in a painterly style. So I started using your line art tips, and it's really been helping me get things done in a timely manner. Thanks for the vid!
DUDEEEE IT TURNED OUT SO GOOD!! your art is so amazing oh my gossshh
Thank you so much for making this video! I have a pretty lineart heavy style and could never get my head around how to make the shading more interesting and painterly like! Completely blew my mind and will definitely try it out! Thank you again!
i´m stucked with an illustration and watch you´re prosses really helps me to overcome that artblock and figure it out what step doing next in my own work.
Gorgeous❤
I love his name and the dramatic lighting so cool!!!
this was awesome!!! 🗣🗣🗣 this kind of process makes more sense to me than the painting process you mentioned (painting and correcting on one layer)
I'm already in love be with your character
I’ve been following you for a LONG time but this is the first video I watch from you, and just watching you go over your process it’s some like magic to me. And very, very inspiring as well. Thank you for sharing this!
Your art style is AMAZING. I love this character, I love how you sketch and how you render it! I feel like I've learned a ton from this video. I love how you were able to add so much definition and detail.
I can only hope to be able to do anything so amazing with my own art.
this was so helpful for me because the process of painting digitally does not compute in my brain, so seeing it be done in steps like this makes it seem possible. also watching how you do it made me appreciate the end piece even more, so cool to see it come to life
the eyes are so striking and mesmerizing! i audibly gasped when i saw the thumbnail yesterday, and i still can't get over it today haha. you did an incredible job!
Me too !!!! I was like "this will save me !!"
your lineart is AMAZING
Thank you so much for this. My art has been in a complete slump when it comes to colouring and shading and this has been such a huge help to push it forward.
Thank you again
Thank you so much for this tutorial, this video was a godsend! I was really struggling with learning how to shade in a 'painterly' looking style but most other digital art tutorials used the airbrush grayscale method that's not for me, but this was perfect! I literally took notes lol
In love with the style
This was so informative and helpful! Please keep making more such videos❤
Wow this actually helped me so much! I was having so much trouble drawing on “one layer” for a more painted look, but it was taking so long because I didn’t have defined lineart or even a clean sketch to work off of. I just kept redrawing and fixing any mistake was a nightmare. My shadows and lighting was a mess, too. Thank you!
I'm quite pissed and unsatisfied with my own art at the moment, and at times I just hate looking at my progress even if I know that I have improved. Just the icky feeling of comparison and self doubt really put a tole on me...
But even so, tutorials like these, really helped me, from the first time I watched this, to now :)
So thank you so much :DD
all the little details are so incredibly awe inspiring your art gives me so much joyyyy
Omg! I love to watch your process. You're a huuuuge inspiration! You can achieve this kind of rendering that is believable, detailed and still simplified . I wish to get to this point one day with my stuff :3
Thank you for showing us your art
Everyone has their own method. I wouldn't say yours is the fastest, but it works for you. I love using the llaso tool, merging layers, and using clipping masks for me it makes lifeless work flow better. I will say I work from a messier sketch line create a base and then carefully line what I want to just delete the access. In procreate I find this process to be most efficient especially merging layers of the same setting(?) To make it all cleaner then just work over the line set. For more complex pieces I might duplicate a sketch layer and have it above everything on 'lighter color' and then delete that one I have my bases dealt with. Line work can be tedious but I guess in the end it depends on the style and needs of the artist ^^
this is so stunning. beautiful.
I just want to compliment you on how you drew his face. It feels very organic and conveyed emotion perfectly! Keep up the good work :D
Thank you!
I really enjoyed watching this, even as someone who doesn't draw digitally. You explained stuff and the way you mentioned the colours and exact opacities and stuff it felt clear enough to try emulating even for someone with no idea what they're doing!
I always panic after the flats section of a digital painting and it takes so much longer than it should - your approach is clear and the art is beautiful, I appreciate you sharing so much detail!
look thank you so much for this video. all the time ive been wanting to do a drawing that has paint-like quality like this but i thought you actually have to paint it and i never considered lineart at all god thank you so much im so inspires now :]
Wow I really needed this. I paint on one layer and I struggle with exactly what you said. Facial structures warp, expressions change etc. This looks so amazingly polished!!
I know what you are talking about. How I struggled trying to find that little blob in so many layers. Great stuff. Love it.
as someone who has never fully grasped painting and is primarily best at lineart, i am SO keen to try this method ✨ looooove how this portrait turned out too
I love and appreciate this step by step more then you will ever know
The lighting on this is sublime
Ur art is amazing that I made this channel cuz of u
I've struggled a lot to do a more painterly look while sticking close to my original drawing -- this helped a lot, thank you!
This was so well demonstrated and well explained , thank you !!!
Oh my gosh as someone who struggles with painting on a single layer as well, thank you for showing me a result like this can be achieved on multiple layers with the right technique, this was very very inspirational and though I don't use Clip Studio I think this method can also be applied to pretty much every other drawing program, in my case Sai2. Tysm!! Amazing video and drawing!!
Okay, you have no idea, I've been looking for a good video on how to do this style of shading/painting for a while and this is the perfect video showing it, I can't wait to use this method
I love it ! This character remind me Archibald from the book the Mirror Visitor
I have been searching for ways to do shade/lighting tec bc I also do use clips studio and this helped thank u
Your art is just mind blowing 👌🏽😊
You are very good at articulating your intentions and process. Bravo
Yeah..other tutorials are intimidating and it doesn't explain very well, they use hundreds of different colors and layers. This is something I could try. Thanks.
I fell in love with your character as the video processed omg... gorgeous!!
