What would be the best programme for using a tablet, Illustrator or Photoshop?
I'm more Illustrator inclined, 'cause I <3 vectors, but I can do Photoshop, and I know there's a pressure thingy on there.

I'd ask on the livestream chat, but I'm too stupid to figure out how to log in DX.

 

[global-wolf]

Depends on what sort of art you want to make. Both are good. :O

 

[Geist]

I <3 photoshop
you can always do vectors in ps, but it's more time consuming. Illustrator is more for graphics design, if you want to do straight up painting, ps is the way to go.

 

[Jimnymebob]

Right, thanks.
I'd been drawing in Illustrator, then colouring in Photoshop lol.
And yeah, I'm more of a graphic designer.

 

[Geist]

graphic design is fun stuff
I know a lot of people that do that, there's pros of it and cons, like most things. It's all about preference, as art always is

"That AE Purple Stuff"

Next step in learning things about art.

learning colors, learning what goes where. Not being able to paint and my fear of putting colors in places really is getting on my nerves.

Also I don't understand the use of diferent brushes
. i know different pencils on paper and such, but when it comes to this on photoshiop i am stumped beyond all belief.

 

[Neon Ness]

Different brushes just have different looks. For instance, small spatter brushes can give the look of a traditional paintbrush when used on a relatively low opacity and layered. Other brushes might give the look of some other texture like charcoal or sand.

One of the most important things I learned about colors was that they are heavily dependent on those surrounding them, everything is relative. Just try junk out at first if you're hesitant, you might stumble across something that looks good.

Now I feel like drawing something too, but I'm not sure what v_v

 

[Purple]

I shall try it, man i just. ugh i don't know what it is with me and coloring..

 

[Geist]

Coloring is scary territory bro
At first it's so overwhelming, and then once you get comfortable and you get good at it you're like <3
At least I think. I'm not good at coloring yet.

Just attack that paper, no fear. Make it your *****.
You really shouldn't have anything from fear. At the best, it turns out sweet and you learn something, and at worst you screw up and you learn from your mistakes, and the only casualty is your art. Oh wait lulz layers and ctrl z

Oh wait lulz layers and ctrl z

Hahahahaha

 

[Geist]

I've been really really really wanting to render a 3d model in maya and then paint over it in photoshop. For some reason the idea came to me and it won't go away. I can assume some professionals do something like this to a degree, but I've never heard of it specifically mentioned.
Anyone have any information on this?

 

[Chronodiver Lokii]

I've seen it used in a lot of seriously insane pictures. Specifically in some that have some insane backgrounds....1 sec. -goes through DA favorites-

[ZIO]

It's similar to how I get away with drawing backgrounds such as landscapes - Take a photo of a place near me and draw over it.


I know it doesn't help me more than observation buuuuuuuut

 

[global-wolf]

If you go through iscribble's galleries, there's some amazing stuff in there. Makes me so so jealous.

Edit: I think I missed a couple posts. o__o;

 

[Chronodiver Lokii]

So I'm being forced to clean out my entire room because it is insanely awful due to the fact I go through paper insanely fast.
I currently have a pile of sketchbooks in my doorway. I don't even think its all of them, but its a bunch of sketchbooks ive used since around 2005 or 2004 i think.
....it's probably around 2 feet tall right now.
And that doesnt even count doodles on computer paper/etc....

 

[Joeadok]

Heyo AE dudes, still arting around?

 

[global-wolf]

Joeadok! Haven't seen you in forever D: You should drop by more.

 

[Joeadok]

Yeah, I should. But the local internet cafe is too annoying to believe.

 

[Wiscus]

Delurking to say do it anyway!
Its nice to see you

I hear you there... I have multiple containers filled with sketchbooks to the brim. There's at least 200 stacked away in my room back at my Ontario home, and an additional 50 that's starting to pile up here.
