Timelapse: inking a comic page in Krita (uncommented)
Vložit

- An uncommented timelapse while inking this page 6 of episode 34 of my webcomic Pepper&Carrot ( www.peppercarrot.com/ ). During the process, I thought about activating the recorder and I even put a webcam so you can see what I'm doing on the tablet too. I'm not doing it for everypages; because you can imagine the weight on disk about saving around 10h of videos like this; and also how it is not multi-tasking: when I record, you don't see me open the door to get the mail of the postman, you don't see me cleaning temporary accident of a cat bringing back a mouse at home, you don't see me typing to solve a merge request issue to merge a translation of Pepper&Carrot.
It was recorded with OBS on Kubuntu 20.04 and edited with Kdenlive 20.12. The tablet I use here are both the Cintiq13HD and Intuos4XL; it depends my mood (I'm not sponsored), but I prefer the Intuos4XL if I had to choose. For inking and sketching, the tiny Cintiq is nice.

Hi David, I love your artwork!! It's always pleasing to see you working. 💚 I saw you load your references in a "reference docker", I might have missed it but I only see "reference tool" in my krita. How do you enable that docker? Thank you!
Hey, it's a plugin (I even duplicated the plugin to get a "Reference Docker Plus" ) . You can find it here: github.com/antoine-roux/krita-plugin-reference I might do a tutorial about it later (and request Krita team to get this plugin part of the default.)
@@DavidRevoy Oh, I see... Thank you so much! I'll definitely add it. Honestly it's kinda difficult to use references loaded directly in the canvas, I always have to be moving them around.
Looking forward for more videos, you're awesome! 😊
@@caroljystudios yes, I needed this as well because I use the reference tool and the picture is never completely still haha.
@@unaestrella1876 Right? I keep zooming in and out to find my references... 😂 it's not effective.
Hey David I finally published a comic! Thank you for your tutorials there's no way I could have ever gotten it up and running without you, thank you so much and I can't wait to see what more I can do
Oh wow! wow! wow! Congratulation and thank you for your kind words. (Now I'm curious; can you tell me where it is? if you prefer on another channel or email for privacy reason, no problem; I would totally get it )
@@DavidRevoyyep! I've been writing this to follow along with your tutorials www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/charming-little-witch/list?title_no=628878 until I'm ready I'll publish my dream book! Thank you for the lessons! They've made making comics my favorite thing of all time, I didn't think I'd get to do it ever (adobe is waaaay too expensive but you've made krita such an incredible tool for me) so thank you! Much love from Kenya!
@@inkchip7351 ❤️
Thanks for sharing this. I am always amazed at how skilled and fast you are doing these.
J'ai déjà participé au patreon un moment, et ai acheté un poster d'un artwork, et franchement je regrette pas, toujours aussi bien après autant de temps
Merci 💚
yayy another video ❤️ they are so relaxing to watch, thank you!!
thanks!
Your videos are incredibly helpful! I don't know how to thank you! Sending you lots of positive vibes ❤️
🧡🧡🧡
Your Art is so amazing and wonderful. I really like the way you paint and the line art is so smooth. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, it has been really helpful for me. 🧡
Thank you very much 🧡
This is actually an inspiration! love your art as always.
🧡 Thanks ꜱʜɪꜱʜɪ ᴀɴɴᴇ !
Merci pour cette vidéo, c'est toujours inspirant et instructif de voir votre travail et votre manière de procéder ! ✨
Merci!
Love your video's and I love your comics. Thanks for doing these videos.
Thank you for taking the time to add a comment 🧡
Hi David! I'm love your artstyle and thank you for sharing process! It's so... conciliatory. Especially with this music.
Sorry for my poor english :)
👍 Thank you!
I really like your artwork :))
Thank you!
Thank you
Cats and mice! Mine brought a baby bunny....sitting here and I heard a lot of running around....next I see something out of the corner of my eye run past me with the cat right behind. I have to look to see what is going on..and as they run past me at full speed again I see what is going on.....have to get up and rescue the baby bunny which I returned to the wild. So much for art work that day.....LOL! (The other trick is to try to sit on my sketch pad when using pencil and paper....sigh...) Thank you for this video. Will never be as fast as you are!!!
Awww, baby bunny! My last one right now really brings like 4 mouse a week. Fortunately, most of them are alive and not injured; just exausted and trembling (poor things). I always find a way to catch them and bring them back to garden. Thanks for your nice comment! (and for reading the description 🧡 )
This is an amazing artwork! I would really love to make a comic like this, though a run into a problem about the radial lines/effect lines or whatever you may call it. I would love to know how you did them, did you drew them yourself? Or did you use a tool in Krita I haven't seen yet? Thank you in advanced! Again, love your artwork!
Hey, thanks! Yes, I drew a set of speedline/radial as PNG, using the Krita assistant (they can assist in drawing parrallal lines, or concentric lines) and then I just drag and drop my presets over the canvas when I need it.
Hey David, could you please make a video on tips for writing a webcomic?
Hey Snigda, I'll try; but to be fair; I still don't think I'm legit enough to speak about writing/story process. Each time I still feel after publication of new episode I struggle between random win and fails, and I haven't found a solid receipe that works all the time. (something that comfort me: neither hollywood has found it, neither anime ; even if the two are big industry since decades...) I'll see what I can do. Have you see my video of 2018 from "a comic page from A to Z" ? The first part has a bit of my method to cut the scene; but nothing about writing.
@@DavidRevoy I think it will be an amazing video, super interesting with beautiful art either way.
@@unaestrella1876 Thank you for the encouragement; I'll think about it then. Maybe I just need to add good 'disclaimer' before starting a video like that xD
@@DavidRevoy yeah you should definitely have a go! because only good can come from it. I'd love to attempt comics sometime in the future when I learn to get faster and more efficient. It'd be an amazing video.
It's finally updated
Hi, I noticed you draw at the screen tablet first and then switch it for drawing on tablet and looking at monitor. any preference there? why do both?
Great art, started following you recently, when I started learning to draw digitally. reading adventures of Pepper and Carrot as well :D
Hi David!
I dunno how iften you check out your comments, but hey, here's hoping.
1st off, thanks for your awesome tutorials and I love your charcoal pencil brushes!
They feel super natural and easy to draw with, surprisingly!
Anyway, I just got started using krita and a lot of your content has helped me a lot... though there's still A LOT to learn.
Here's what I've learned so far.
....I can't ink or do very good line art, like at all.
I just can't seem to nail down those 'confident, single strokes' I admire, but I can definitely do a rough sketchy look that feels, easier and more natural fir me, I guess?
This is gonna sound kinda dumb, but I honestly dunno if that's okay. I dunno, it's just where I'm at right now, I guess?
On the flip side, I have a relatively easier time with stuff like using layers and coloring, but yeah---my 'cleaner' line art attempts suck.
I was nust curious on any words of wisdom you might have for an amateur with digital art.
Hey! Thank you very much. About doing clean line-arts; it's really difficult because each lines require a perfect control (on X, Y and pressure). So, it require a big connection to "anticipate" how the line should look and the execution; how with the tablet+krita it can be done. Tools like the Stabilizer in the tool option of the paint tool help a bit; but in general, yep; this is top difficult. Good luck working on it; it require a lot of patience and be shielded against repeated frustration. But when it start to 'flow' a bit; it is really enjoyable and feels like super powers. ^__^
Hi David! I truly enjoy your videos and tutorials! I have learned so much about thru your tutorial on the colorizing mas, and it truly feels like it will speed my process. Thank you for sharing! Quick question! What is the main brush you used here to ink? I'm having a hard time finding a good inking brush which creates more natural lines instead of solid lines like most inking brushes! Thank you!!
Hi! Thanks for the feedback! I'm using the Bristle 2 Flat rough; a brush I made for Krita 4 ; ( docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/krita_4_preset_bundle.html ) I have several version of this one; with 70% flow, or with more pressure. or 30% opacity to sketch. I think my main modification over the default is the precision slider up to 5. (the dev wanted the default to be less resources intensive and removed the precision5 to something less). I also use the stabilizer built in Krita ; the value depends the tablet I use; around 40 on my large tablet; around 70 on my smaller ones.
Hi David! I'm sure I already know but... this would have colour added too right? I ask because of the inking on the hair at this stage. Would the opacity be turned down on the inking layer?
Oh, yes, you can see the final episode here ( www.peppercarrot.com/en/article467/episode-34-the-knighting-of-shichimi ) ; about the part I filled with dark gray, sure, I kept them on another layer (or I split them atfer when I forgot) and merge them over my coloring/shading group.
@@DavidRevoy thank you!
Salut David, je suis impressionné par chaque vidéo ! d'ailleurs je me me demandais comment tu faisais tes lignes de vitesse en arrière plan.
ça ressemble clairement pas à du "copié collé" genre fast-lines.jpg ^^ Elles ont l'air vraiment personnalisées... il y a un outil pour ça ? une méthode ? MERCI!
Merci pour les retours! Alors en fait; ce sont des lignes tracé manuellement à l'aide des 'assistant' de Krita. Mais j'ai fait ça dans un fichier séparé et quelques variations que je réutilise. Au moment de leur incrustation; je les deformes (avec le mesh transform tool). Bref, c'est une bonne idée pour une prochaine video. Je mets ça dans mon fichier à idées .
@@DavidRevoy Chouette!! Donc, si je comprends bien, à l'origine, c'est des lignes convergentes (façon point de fuite) tracées avec un genre de guide, mais déformées après? J'ai voulu faire un truc du genre, mais la déformation à tendance à trop flouter pour mes gouts (j'avais fait l'essai avec photoshop et gimp)
@@neddyf00 Oui, c'est ça. Pour empecher que ça floute de trop; il faut beaucoup de resolution en entrée, et parfois quelques filtre de contrast après coup.
@@DavidRevoy Merci, je vais essayer de les faire en 600dpi ou un truc du genre ^^
@@neddyf00 me 'concentrique' , ma plus grande fait 5120x5120 pixels xD Sinon, minimum 2000 ici pour celle lineaire. J'essaie de partager ça bientôt.
Sinon, il y aussi le générateur de texture intégrer dans Krita; SeExpr (via 'Fill Layer') qui a des presets de speedlines. J'essaierai aussi d'en toucher quelques mots.
Is the original sketch done on paper first..?? then you scan it and you color over it digitally?
Ha, no, the original sketch here is done directly with the same tablets. I sometime do that on paper too (for next episode,I'll have to: I need to travel and paper + pencil is the easiest mobile material to work anywhere; plane/hotel/in all moment of waiting...) That's the beauty of a workflow with a sketch+cleaning step: you can handle the sketch phase in many ways; the rendering is not important at this step.
Pourquoi utilises-tu 2 types de tablettes graphiques différentes ? (Écran et sans écran). Merci.
Bonjour, alors en fait j'ai appris la peinture numérique sur tablette sans écran; et du coup c'est ce que je préfère. Mais souvent, j'ai envie de dessiner, de voir ma main, mes gestes. Alors, à cette période j'avais la petite 13HD de Wacom et je la connectai parfois pour dessiner. Ca permets aussi de changer de position de travail, c'est bon pour le dos et les fesses de varier un peu quand on fait ça 10h par jour :-) Recemment, j'ai une Artist 16Pro Gen2 de XpPen; et cette tablette fait les deux : assez large pour être utilisable en tablette sans écran, et je peux aussi l'utiliser en regardant l'écran. C'est encore plus facile de passer d'un type a l'autre.
@@DavidRevoy ok merci pour les explications 👍🏻
Hey David, how do you put another screen on your other monitor and what brush is that?
For my desktop setup with two monitor; I just have a graphic card that has enough plug to connect many monitors. Once connected, the desktop environment and operating system take care of managing the screen layout. But I imagine here you ask about Krita; You'll find in Krita menu "Windows" a "New View" and "New Windows". If you refer about my tiny picture on the left of the Krita monitor in this video; it's two "Reference docker" a plugin ( github.com/antoine-roux/krita-plugin-reference ) ; and if you refer to the webcam ; it was recorded separately and my video editing software (Kdenlive) helped me to put it into overlay during video-editing.
@@DavidRevoy Yes that's what I meant is to have your work show up on tablet and other screen. Sorry for not making it more clear lol and what kind of brush is that your using it looks good for inking. Thanks
@@booya2k Ha ok! Well the screen recorded on the video ( in large) is in fact the screen of the little Cintiq. If you look at it and compare to the webcam ; it's similar and sync.
About the brush; I made the inking with "f)_Bristle_2_Flat" (not sure if I remember the name) ; it's one of my fav brush that joined default in Krita. I have like 10 preset that are just variation of size/opacity/flow around this same preset; just for convenience. The variation I use the most nowadays as "Precision 5" and "Flow 70%" but no other modifications. I also use a stabilizer; probably between 30 to 70px.
@@DavidRevoy thanks! The brush seems neat. Do you use it for painting your pieces as well?
@@unaestrella1876 I often use this one for detailing and painting things under 15px large. But as soon as I paint 'blocky' bigger shapes ; I tend to rely on f)_Charcoal_Rock and f)Dry_Roller.
What brush you using sir ??
Hi, I use a set I created; you'll find it here: www.davidrevoy.com/article854/krita-brushes-2021-bundle
Thank you
