What's in Premium?

I will walk you through my complete process for rendering a figure from start to finish. I apply traditional oil painting techniques to digital art to build up solid forms. You will learn how to transition from a structural line drawing to shape and value massing. I explain how to control your edges to guide the viewer's eye. We focus on keeping the face as the sharp focal point while letting the peripheral areas blur out naturally.

You will also see how to set up a value scale to avoid muddy colors. I demonstrate how to add textures like metal armor and fabric folds over your established forms. You will learn how to balance analytical structure with observational painting to create a finished piece.
