Another day gone in planning of my movie. Thanks to my best bud Alok's constant push to do a speedpainting just minutes before 12 am, I managed to churn this out. Since my friend Ankita was watching while I painted this (I dunno how she had the patience for so long!), I comfortably finished it in 1 hour 25 minutes. Learned mainly about rim lighting and back lighting, although I need to do more of these studies!

Speedpainting #05
Feedback and criticism is highly appreciated!
The big jhol that happened with this one is that a guy had copied the original photo, copyrited it, and put it up on google. That was the one I painted from. Then I see the original on deviantart, and it seems so that it is different in its lighting and color!! So after I was done with it I had to tweak its colors to match the original. Sad story. :( Anywho, learnt a lot.
Really great work!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rajesh! :)
DeleteI was wondering.. how do you go about matching the color? are you using the eye dropper tool? cool work btw.
ReplyDeleteHi Jon,
DeleteI try to visually pick a color as close in hue and saturation to the one I'm observing. No, I never use the eye dropper - that way you'll never learn and it won't help you recognize color. If you take a look at the original you can see the difference in the saturation of the lemurs as well as the tree's leaves in the background. That's where I need a little more practice.
Thanks for your feedback! :)
This is fantastic! Would love to see its process. Thanks for the tip on not using the eye dropper tool. I now realize it has spoiled me silly.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dapoon! I have no idea how to do those process videos but I'll def. upload one when I find out. :) Yeah, the eyedropper is only for selecting your own colors, not the ones in the original photo. :)
DeleteAmazing speeds Nikhita! Love the light and colors! Great works.
ReplyDeleteThanks estevao! I'm learning, so there'll be lots more where that came from!
