[@666DARKFLAMES]

I hope there will like 100 episodes or more and 30 seasons of Reiq's coloring like a pro.

[@REIQ]

Yes I'll Make them Shorter!

[@bigdadbeefsticks]

@@REIQ Why make them shorter? I mean, I understand if that's just what you want to do. But I really enjoyed the length of this video

[@seancastillo8869]

I second this id watch for days

[@lamblyy]

God loves you in Christ Jesus. We are sinners by nature and we need someone to save us. Jesus died for our sins so that we can live free of sin and death for eternity. Turn to Christ!!

[@blaneandgame9]

reiq gets me so excited about art. hes so humble too. love it.

[@mattrees210]

Every single second blows me away, ReiQ you are THE master 🖤🖤🖤

[@arman5043]

Been waiting for this for ages!

[@dityara1738]

Excactly what i'm waiting for. Thanks reiq !

[@vvvion]

Thank you for this video. It was very informative as you explained your thought process and your approach to this piece. It was a breakthrough to hear (@ around 27 minutes in), you did not like how you had drawn her face and it took you, off and on, about 4 days to correct it. Even more, you was honest and admitted you needed to look for references. This helps us amateur artist to hear that Pros like you still struggle at times with your art. I had assume with all the years I been following you, art would be automatic and easy for you. But I realize it not. Experience helps on to improve their art level. That why you are so good- you keep pushing yourself. Thanks again for sharing!

[@REIQ]

Didn't took me 4 days may be 2 hrs to correct it, that will be shown on the second part, but yes we all struggle!

[@vvvion]

@@REIQ , sorry that I mis-heard you. But thanks for enlightening us on your process.

[@octonolite_0]

Thanks for gifting us something this good and thoroughly detailed. I'm sure I'll rewatch it several times.

[@SoSkuld]

I really love your process ! So interesting ! I think I will try it for my own work ! Thank you for sharing your knowledge !

[@davidtheartist8179]

This is fire already and it hasn't even started yet🎨🔥

[@nindioart2502]

Ohh reiq, no debiste 🥰 muchas gracias por compartir y enseñarnos tanto

[@TalcimeLowKey]

I see reiq my brain shuts off and click automatically

[@KayzeChannel]

This helps a lot. Thank you Mr. REIQ

[@almasnvlrr]

I love your drawings!

[@steverogers7601]

If you have a video where the process is in real time, meaning not sped up or fast forward, I would LOVE to see that!

[@ponungnonang7021]

Excited😝😝

[@h3rpad3rpacifilis]

Hell yea, very informative!

[@flafcodes]

Wow... Just at the right time! I'm studying painting right now. 😮

[@REIQ]

Thats right! XD

[@Silver-xf7it]

Can't wait

[@Hotterman10]

This is great

[@GarredHATES]

I’m definitely gonna watch this

[@alexanderlumsden7010]

yea

[@thekorv95]

Damn he's good. Thanks for this vid Reiq!

[@metalassassin8841]

Thanks alots Reiq!Hopefully over time I'll get to steal some of your style xD Tbh my biggest problem is the coloring phase when you start with the values, tho I learned a few tricks from an old video of Artgerm that made me understand how Photoshop fucks over the grey values.If anyone else deals with this issue I'd recommend looking for Artgerm's video about this "problem".It's a video that he was coloring Chun Li if I remember corectly.

[@BaronVonTacocat]

Sweet!

[@thefullbleedart]

Really great tutorial! Thanks for sharing your technique

[@REIQ]

You are so welcome!

[@REIQ]

Second part is better!

[@butters3746]

Could we get the hex codes for the shades :D also when shading in the second shadow are you using it on another layer?

[@lightskinssj9815]

Cmon I’m got school tommorow well it’s look like I saying yo an extra hour lol 😂

[@esRaortiz]

I would assume this would be applicable to character design concepts as well. Not just illustrations. Beautiful work. Gracias por el video 🙏

[@REIQ]

Absolutely!

[@ruqby]

I like how informative this video is but what texture brushes you recommend and about how long in detail should you work on character color build.

[@mileenah33]

OMG Zero Two! im excited! :3

[@Ellesk]

nice

[@mrvaporiz]

Must see

[@Jaugarez]

Do you always start with a grayscale value when coloring? also are you using custom brushes in corel?

[@CanalDojogames]

Reiq, do you use clip studio,photoshop? Man there is an video from you, the first i saw that make me your fan and also wish so much an display to draw, the wacom one i think 16inch? I can't remember for sure. It was 2014 and since them i always am an huge fan of your style and art. Personally i love so much manga and keep drawing it but i found that my "home" is on pixel art. I do manga but when i do on pixelart its like magic...i can do anything. Thank you for always inspire me... Today finally i have an Huion 22inchs and im just passing to learn more, see your art and thank you for all these years inspiring me.

[@ziggyzombie76]

All hail the exhalted one 🙇

[@SoSkuld]

Hey ! What brush do you use on painter for values ans painting ? Thank you ^^

[@qmelon4263]

It’s time my brethren

[@kenshobuq7105]

I would like to know, where i could get these Brushes you use REIQ, i use Photoshop. I want to try coloring as well but i'm a total noob at it, but i think i get the general idea.

[@ninjascroll1017]

Did you colorize your grayscale value layer and then color on a layer above set to multiply? Was the value layer set to normal

[@REIQ]

Multiply and overlay setting!

[@LiloVLOG]

Where I can find the songs?

[@REIQ]

You have to buy them Lol

[@LiloVLOG]

@@REIQ Ok, what's the name?

[@saoulojeri]
