Thanks Daniel, I appreciate the kind words and notes on the design, always enjoy your paintings!
Thank YOU! Best wishes man 💪💪
Love your work, Vaughan.
HEAVYPAINT has come along way
Yes! Time for me to make a new video!
Your piece looks as cinematic as it gets. Love it
Thank you sir! This app is so fun dude. Hope all is well with you bro 💪
This is my first app that made me into digital painting!! it's really cool because the app force you to painting with shape
I absolutely agree! It is so helpful. It teaches you too see 💪
This has been on my to do list for months! Now I'm super inspired to get it aaaa. Thanks for this. I'm glad to have found you here too!
It is a blast! Thank you for the greeting!
Yay!! I’m so glad you’re making a video about HP, it is one of my favorite apps for painting, it’s so fun and I’ve learnt so much as well!
Woohoo! I love it! I am so excited to hear that! Thank you for sharing! Best wishes and happy painting!
Thank you. I’ve been interested in trying this app. Your painting looks fantastic.
Thank you! I will try to do some tutorials and try to simplify a way of working with it... But I love this app... It is so so much fun!
So incredible 😍
Thank you always!!!
He is also on yt, he streams it live. I watch him alot of time and he talks with the community
Very helpful thank you!
The fill tool seems reminiscent of a vector pen tool that you'd find in Photoshop/Illustrator. I find the colour jitter feature to be ingenious!
It is so good!!! Thank you for the comments 💪💪!
😁 I just heard about it on an Instagram post as well 😂.. And im here researching about it.. Great video.. Lots of energy.. And awesome painting 😍
Thank you so so much!!!! 💪
I've been focusing the last few months in not the way i draw details and stuff bc it felt like i wasn't really improving at all or i was improving backwards but then i find out that the reason that i wasn't really improving was bc i was focusing my attention in something that even if i managed to perfection would not look good bc my composition were bad, my colors doesn't match each others, my brush work was so hard and doesn't bring anything interesting to my drawings and this app were somehow the answer bc it forces me as you say (to think in the big picture and not only focusing on small details) of im still learning but i did manage to get more interesting results in my paintings while enjoying the process
I'm glad you reviewed it, Heavypaint is my favourite app. The artwork you created is gorgeous. 😍
Thank you! The app keeps getting better and better!
@@DanielIbanez Yes it does. I'm still adjusting to the updates but I am a middle-aged woman so most tech updates do my head in. 😝
@@annaharris2870 some of the updates have been significant! I think all of us get turned upside down by the changes lol!
Really fantastic Daniel; I’ll have to try this app.Thank you.
I wonder.... But I think you will love it! It is so unusual. I am working on a tutorial video for it right now.
Very cool and thanks!
That is interesting application. Thank you for pointing on it, never heard before!
Myself, currently I stuck at traditional drawing (graphite pencils and ink) and painting (watercolors). It is just personal hobby and spiritual need for me, nothing more. I feel my own growth of skills over time, but it is rather slow and gradual. Simply not enough practice and still a lot of fears. Btw, for this year have plans to come out on plain airs. First time in life ) Moreover, organize them, find like-minded people, so that it is not so scary.
Periodically I try to dive in digital drawing which is part of the dream :) With ArtRage mostly, but also have Krita, SketchBook and Blank Ink. I absolutely love AR, but feel that my current skills just don't scale enough to digital domain, results are disappointing mostly. And has concluded, that it is mostly because I drown in all it's capabilities, tools and millions of colors. My watercolor palette has 24-28 most of the time )
Definitely will give a try for this simple and limited tool!
And thank you for your videos, I love your art and the way of thinking.
Thank you for sharing all of that. Your art journey is at a special moment. I am excited for your year of exploration! I agree that when my paintings are unsatisfying I need to find a more simple way. I hope this tool is a helpful strategy! Best wishes on the plein air!
@@DanielIbanez Thank you for your kind wishes! Looking forward for new art talk and paintings )
Ohh this looks super interesting. If I'm doing ref based work I color pick quite a lot but stubbornly push myself out of it when doing original stuff from the noggin, keeps me way more engaged. This app seems to stick to that principle, so I ought to give it a shot too. Awesome painting too!
Totally! This app is all about refining your painting instincts! It's a little bit unusual to start painting with but it has a very logical arrangement of tools once you get the hang of it. I think it's tremendously fun. I've had a hard time going back to other apps after using it sometimes... Just because it's so fun and so uniquely challenging!
Awesome video. Bought the app. Will give it a shot.
That is awesome! It is so fun!
Thanks for this Daniel. I agree with you wholeheartedly about not liking picking colours on digital usually, I'd much rather make them as well. Always happy to hear your thoughts on this stuff. Great video. What kind of output can you get from it I wonder....You mentioned wanting to make a big print. How big do you think you could go for a good quality print?
I will figure that out asap and let you know. Thank you! I think the app is free on mobile/iPad... I need to check that vs desktop! Thank you again!
Daniel, can you please make a tutorial about how the tools work in Heavypaint? I just need to have an overview of it all and not too much depth so that I can fumble around and figure stuff out myself too. Thanks for what you do and a biiiig thanks to Vaughan for making such a great app.
I will absolutely do that! Great idea!!
For realistic effect, we have always needed bump maps with each stroke. Otherwise it's just fake strokes on a screen.
By the way Photoshop has a HSV color picker, if this is what you prefer.
Hi Daniel, new visitor on your channel! Can you cite the artists you mentioned? The one on instagram as well as your Disney mentor? I couldn't find them online. Also thanks so much for your notes and insights!
Let me get their names! I am sorry I missed your comment!
Heavypaint is an amazing app! Sadly I dont like the new brush size and jitter sliders, i wish their was a way to change them back to the ones used in this video
That is good feedback. I wonder if Vaughn will update for that option!?
@@DanielIbanez hopefully! I just find the new sliders a harder to use, they're a bit too finicky and hard to click now 😖
Hello! My version on my iPad looks different than yours. I don't have all the sliders etc. Is this because I have the free version? How do I upgrade to the more complete version? And where can I get super beginner tutorials for using this program? Do you teach it? Thanks!
Those are all incredibly important questions! I was thinking I needed to start from scratch and make a beginner series. The user interface has changed a lot since I did my first look/review. Okay, I'm on it! (Ps. I think the user interface just looks different for everybody now. And I really need to update my review!)
I've tried several times to install the PC version of this app on a Windows 10 machine. However since it doesn't have the appropriate digital signature it won't install. Windows 10 used to allow a user to go ahead and install an application anyway, but that capability seems to have gone away with the latest version of Windows 10 20H2...anyone else having this issue? Here is the dialog message "Windows protected your PC. Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk. App: HEAVYPAINT_WINDOWS_2051.exe
Publisher: Unknown publisher" The only option available is to "Don't Run".
Let me ask the creator. I have that same message... I can't recall what I did to click past that warning
Isn't there and option like Show More or Read More or something? Maybe not as a button... maybe as a text link?
I think it depends on your system settings, because it can have a Warning or just Block

Like mentioned on this article
I also hate colour picking in digital. It doesn't feel organic and intuitive like in traditional.
where is tutorial ?;) and print test :D?
I definitely need to come back to this software! Thank you for the reminder
@@DanielIbanezthere's more possibilities than before.very nice app.:) still simple
3:59 name of the artist please?:) i cant hear
Angothemango
@@DanielIbanez thank you ! :)
its great that people are using tools to make art.... but from the beginning when I was talking to the creator of heavy paint in a livestream I said "you know photoshop has all these tools....this is just like a really shitty cut down photoshop" .....then I had everybody in the stream jump on me with "well what about this! well what about this!?".....yes....yes.....PS has alllll of those tools. You can use photoshop exactly like HP.....then it came to "well the limitations are the whole point! it makes you a better painter!".....ok but again you can limit yourself in PS. I love the tools, I love artrage because it has tools that you cant make in PS. I love blender because the 3d in photoshop just isnt that good....but if tommorow PS ceased operations I would just use affinity photo or something...... I see all these people evangelizing Heavy paint.....but I have no fucken clue why because if you close everything in PS except the brush box and the RGB slider and change the background to grey you have literally the exact same thing and you didnt have to spend 20$ on it.
Its about "new" thats all it is....everyone wants something "new" and its easier to associate that with buying something different instead of learning to use something you already have.
anyways thats my rant. Lots of kids and amateurs will buy HP but it wont do anything for you that PS isnt already giving you....and again im not an adobe fan im just for people using the shit they already own and lets be real every art pro uses PS....
I understand the criticism and yet I would offer that I don't find that what I like about it to have a direct analogue in photoshop. In some ways, yes, it is like a cut down version of Photoshop... But not in other ways. I actually paint most of my digital work in photoshop and have a course with Domestica using Photoshop coming out soon. It is my most used painting tool by far. And I still think there is a good deal unique about Heavy Paint. I agree that I could craft a set of brushes to mimic some of the brushes. And yes, 100% to a portion of the UI stuff. But there is plenty that you can't simply do or make equal in Photoshop. I feel the tool curation and ui design are a really nice combo... Especially for mobile devices. And for quick digital plein air sessions... It is awesome. I would never turn to this as my singular or top app, but it has a place in my instructor paradigm for sure! All of that said, (and I 100% agree) Artrage stands alone in the digital space for it's truly unique offering. There is nothing like it in all of the digital art world. Artrage is uniquely powerful, surprisingly versatile, and anachronistic (in a good way). Artrage is still the first and last digital tool I use with my students because of how good it is at doing digital oil paint. Right now I use Photoshop, artrage, Rebelle, and Heavy Paint. I dabble with (but don't have a place for) clip studio, infinite painter, painter, realistic studio, and a couple others... But my job is to keep playing with what's out there and try to bring in things that will help young painters. Currently, I teach photoshop and artrage the most by far. Thank you for your thoughts, I can definitely see where you are coming from! I will keep examining it all and will definitely always have artrage in my tool kit. Best wishes, Daniel
Photoshop doesn't have fill lasso, you need a plugin. Otherwise you must lasso then fill, it is clunky. Photoshop also doesn't have the stretchy feel of oil brush, it feels more tactile and tangible in heavy paint. Photoshop can do mostly everything heavy paint can, but it takes more clicks
@@AlvynVillanuevaart good points! The fluency of heavy paint is significant
Man, what a crappy take dude. ‘Heavypaint is just a really shitty photoshop’ is one of the most asinine things I’ve ever heard. Why did you even repeat it, it was bad enough you said it the first time. You’re 100% wrong.
‘Let’s be real every art pro uses PS’ is also 100% completely, embarrassingly wrong. Also you have yet to post a single video of your work, so maybe just hush.
