interesting to hear you encourage us younger artists to take the time to figure out that fold, or that hand, if it bugs you, dont move on but fix it. this is the first time i have heard such advice!

Just found you. Tutorials on how to, concept to sketch, a roster of characters for a game. With the quality and uniqueness that LoL, Soul Calibur, Pokemon, and Yu-Gi-Oh have.

Welcome Back!

Brooooo I'm so happy you're back to making videos. I've got you on All notifications sub and eagerly awaiting more epic content :) Always inspiring and informative to watch your process!

Thanks a lot !!

„no calling in sick“ is such a toxic mindset in general

Maann Dave, you were such an inspiration for me back then, I watched a lot of your art streams, and all of your videos I think back when I graduated from high school. Thank you for all of your videos, tips, and everything. I especially liked your art streams, where you really took your time and created something with the community. :Dd So I would really watch your live streams here as well, or long videos. I would love to see your take on world & story building too, like doing some characters & places with a story and expanding on it as time goes, or something like that.

The blink at the end got me so hyped up 👁👄👁 Insane video, Dave! Love watching you paint, hopefully you will find the time to make more of these videos in the future, seeing u paint is just such a motivating thing. As for the character, it has so much personality, love it so much!

woooow Dave I just realised ur back! this is insane, a dream come truee. Personally, I missed watching you paint so much. Looking forward to see more videos after I check the latest ones ❤

5:58 how is the shadows so soft? whenever i try to block in shadows it looks odd and looks really harsh. is the opacity low, im sure it has to be more than that. im a beginner and don't really understand digital art yet.

why does his voice sound so different from his actual videos

It was fun to see your process. Love all of the subtle details you put in your work that bring it all together! I didn't know about the ctrl shift c shortcut, so I immediately tried it out in PS because that would save so much frustration! But it doesn't work for me. Is it supposed to work with clipping masks involved? Also curious about your layers, did I miss something or do you not use clipping masks at all? If not, then why? Would love to hear your perspective on this.

Would love a video on how you approach planning and painting magic effects in your work!

HES BACK!

Hello Dave, just wondered if you'd seen any affect of AI art on your industry? and your ability to work? Maybe you use AI for reference? or ideas? or maybe the robots have stole your jobs XD? would love to hear any thoughts you have. Thanks from New Zealand

You're best

Mote tutorials please. Love your work. Membership, patreon, onlyfans, i will sub everywhere.

stoked you're back!

That was very helpful! Thank you 🙏

thank you for these videos man <3 I learned a lot from you, especially when I started to learn these things back in 2020 oh, and also I love the character, but I think the key idea would have been really cool with it : D I know that it wouldn't make sense but I would take the key shapes into an edgy style xd and make them big, at least one of them and paint it with purplish blue? xd Idk what would I do to make it right but yeah xd that would be my idea, thanks for the video :' D

I went to Lightbox for the first time this year, and I was too afraid to walk up to you, I wish I would've lol! It's so nice to see readjustments; I struggle with getting it on the first go, so it's discouraging when other artists' pieces seem so perfect.

(screaming, crying, throwing up) DAVE IS BACK!!!! I've been a long time viewer on Twitch, so I'm excited to see you're back! It was really cool seeing new designs in WoW and being like "oh Dave for sure had a hand in that one lol" Glad it's been a great experience for you, you deserve it! I personally have been struggling with finding a balance between realism and stylization when pushing proportions and/or shape language, and would love a refresher on how you go about finding that balance. Excited to see new content on the horizon!

Glad you are back Dave! So, I have this kinda basic question, but what canvas resolution do u usually work with? I noticed it was 7000x9500 on this piece. Is it some kinda industry standard, or just something you prefer personally ? For big illustrations I don't usually go over 5k on the bigger side, so I am just kinda curious about that, thank you!

I'd love to see stuff on workflow and how to use references as well as what you consider the fundamentals.

Minute 12:17, why did you whispered in my ear that way, Sr??

HEY! Welcome back! Couldn't have come at a better time! I'm working at an indie Game studio as the Creative Director, but we're so small at the moment I'm LITERALLY All of the art roles for the time being. HELP! *LOL* Any tutorials you have will be extremely valuable. Thanks for coming back to the platform!☺ Missed ya, sir!

Hey Dave! Really glad you are posting again, GREAT CONTENT! I sent you an email, but thought I would reach out here as well. Would you be interested in being a guest designer on my channel?

this looks amazing. what (if any) reference did you use for this? or did you freak just free styled all of that?

You are one of my heroes Dave, welcome back. Greetings from Brazil o/

Nice nice nice you are the Best Dave Greco. Your art is soooo nice

amazing

Would love to see you use procreate and do a tutorial like this thanks so much for the great vids Dave ❤

Man that was a jump scare at the end

I personally just want more Drawing with Dave.

Loving all the comeback videos buddy! Great work!

Beautiful! She's new, fresh and a tough one. love her design and the little bot boy with her. Watching you draw is always the best inspiration! See you soon Dave 🤩

Would LOVE to have walk through of things like how you create your own lighting, colour picking, some of the top lessons you’ve leaned over the past three years, and just general breakdowns of how you go from sketch to final! Can’t wait to see what comes next :)

I love your workflow! Btw what is the name of the music that starts at 29:00 ?

It was captivating to watch

return of the king 🙏

Amazing. Tonnes of helpful things, dude! I have to start taking simple notes.

It turned out so rad dude! I love the teal and pink in this! so beautiful :D

Looking very cool! I said Thalia for a name before but not sure if she's still got Thalia vibes. She's got kinda a different feel now... hmmm maybe Mira?? As for the bot, I think I've got one. I think Trip would be cute!

you gotta stop leaving me dave, vids are amazing

Glad to see you back Dave! Big love and warm hugs from Scotland ☺️🤍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Love it

I'm so grateful for your work and art. It helps a lot even in mental health. Absolutely love your style and i'm always eager to learn from you. Thank you so much! Awesome!

Me: “Huh… how does he do that?” Dave: “…Ctrl-Shift-C..” Me: “Oh that’s how you do that..” 😂 Thanks man, always appreciate learning new tricks!

The blink gave me whiplash. Spooky
