Description

A practical and complete course on painting appealing and photo-realistic digital portraits by an experienced digital artist specializing in portraits.

The course contains 10 parts, each part under 10 minutes of video content, featuring a beginner to advanced introduction to the techniques and best practices in painting artistic digital portraits.

The program of the course is following:

  1. Skin tones: choosing skin colors, creating palettes, using the color wheel in graphic software to help choose the right tones, using non-standard colors for skin.
  2. Eyes: eye shapes and proportions, anatomy, perspective, application of shadows, walk-through of the whole process of the eye painting.
  3. Noses: nose shapes and proportions, anatomy, perspective, application of shadows, walk-through of the whole process of the nose paint.
  4. Lips: lips shapes and proportions, anatomy, perspective, application of shadows, walk-through of the whole process of the lips painting.
  5. Ears: ears shapes and proportions, anatomy, perspective, application of shadows, walk-through of the whole process on the ear painting.
  6. Hair: basic hair shaping, work from basic shapes to details, matching the hairstyle shape to the face.
  7. How to work with references (portrait edition): the use of reference photos, techniques for recreating characters from photos, useful vs. useless parts of the reference photos, using one vs. many photos, the use of 3D software.
  8. Sculpting approach to painting: painting without the use of a sketch and guidelines, “building/sculpting” the painting and treating it as clay that can be distorted, cut, rebuilt, or reshaped at any time.
  9. Smart rendering: indicating when it is worth focusing on details and when it is unnecessary, deliberately left “unfinished” objects/parts of a painting to achieve specific results.
  10. Light and shadow as an aftereffect: adding “dramatic” light effects at the end of the painting process (when it’s finished/almost finished), “saving” an average work with interesting character lighting, and an overview of useful layers.
