I loved every piece of this.. The colour constructor seems like a magic tool.. but without the magic in it.. :3

[@samireblue1040]

i love your painting and your voice xD keep up the excellent work!

[@valterjohansson6397]

In an age of concept design and comic books it's so nice to have someone talk about colurtheory.

[@KikiiLil]

Right. So I'm not about to get over how you made such a simple-looking sketch turn out so majestic in the end. I guess colors really do make the most, huh.

[@dannypavlov913]

Whoa the final result is amazing.

[@rycky56]

Once again, Ahmed, thank you very much for sharing this tutorial. I have to admit that the last video about this color construction software was a little bit abstract to me but now, it's crystal clear and I think I'm gonna buy this software to help me understand better colors and lighting. You're great! Thank you.

[@lucassoares4084]

Man, how could you do it so well? Keep with the great job :)

[@DanielTejnicky]

And now I had just purchased that colour constructor... you sir are good salesman =D heh

[@Chenguin]

For some reason this picture makes me think of the girl + the dog hopping into an open top biplane. The girl lowering her goggles and then the dog attempting to, first with his stubby little front paws, then trying to scrape hem down on the side of the plane before finally using his back paws (as though he were scratching his ears in typical dog fashion). I realize this is probably a "cool story bro" but I am hitting "post" anyway. OH, and great video!

[@kwikset7905]

Gahh, Color Constructor and this video helped me so much! Now I can design colors and yet keep them grounded to the physics of light.

[@teafoo]

wonderful work, just found this in 2021. Keep up the good work!

[@mainwon]

damn. it crashed and u kept going. i respect that!

[@bobertbolero]

fantastic video mr ahmed! tho I hope you dont take offense if i say this but l think it would be better if you had left the social media links on for just the first minute instead of the whole video; it was quite distracting haha

[@janninejaylo]

I need to practice my coloring skillz

[@PhilipTF2]

Did u do it?

[@lubnam.mosmari4171]

You are a genius

[@lolapple]

Wow, really insightful! Thank you for demonstrating ways ColourConstructor works, in action! :)

[@lisamaier9984]

Loved the quick example video. It looks like a great help when laying colors. I really need the help. Thank you so much.

[@Maejys]

Lovely piece :). Just by watching how to use the programs it helps, for instance, I could have been using more of the ambient light in the shadows, which I never thought about. Thanks for the video.

[@angelashackelford644]

I have gotten a lot better at drawing, but color has been an issue even after watching your color tutorial (don't get me wrong, it was useful!), but I went ahead and decided to buy this program for the use of learning more. Thanks for being so helpful! :D

[@cryan9137]

Loved this. Great production, explanations, and painting man.

[@harharchris]

At the first few seconds of the video I thought it was tomatoes. Anyway, thanks for teaching us this nice program. I might buy the color constructor because of you.

[@ghostie7790]

This program looks so helpful. You've gotten me excited to try it out!

[@notmyname90]

This video was very helpful! i'm about to create a Digital Color Workshop and this tool is definitely part of the program. Thanks for the implementation of this tool to an actual art.

[@JoiskiMe]

That was awesome! Wow it worked so well! I'm excited to try it out!!

[@Pfftspiff]

Hi Ahmed! Your videos are amazing and so helpful! You've sold me on the ColourConstructor, and i'll be trying it out. Will you by any chance be doing another tutorial using the program again? For me, color is one of the toughest things to work with and it's so frustrating. Thank you!

[@dexterbacchus4449]

Thanks for this Video Ahmed, after seeing your video I am going and get this program, actually I was on Gumroad looking at it, and the example videos for it are yours. Once I saw that - being a subscriber and knowing how well you are at explaining, things I knew I would get a great description, Thanks brh.

[@linkthai1995]

This is very helpful, thank you Ahmed :)

[@Siryath]

>so photoshop crashed Story of my life

[@goku21youtub]

+Can u fucking handle it? you guys haven´t worked with maya or 3dsmax or any autodesk software , after that you´ll praise photoshop for its stability xD

[@hamstergirl4444]

+goku21youtub You can also add Poser and Daz Studio to that list >.

[@goku21youtub]

***** please don´t use daz or poser :) youll have much more fun and creativity with a real 3d package, if you´re a student you´ll get a free 3 year license on the autodesk production suite

[@hamstergirl4444]

goku21youtub No worries there, I don't need that kind of aggravation, lol...Poser gives me fits, and I'm mad at Daz, don't like the changes they made in their program and policies. That 3 year license has my jaw on the floor, I didn't know about that - but I'm not a student, and 3D modeling is a bit too hard for me - when you get older, it's harder to learn things and your memory retention goes right out the window, hehe. But thank you for taking the time to tell me about that :)

[@Ciaurrix]

guess it couldnt handle it

[@juliemolina1971]

Your videos are so great and so helpful! Thank you for sharing your process.

[@lucasmnribeiro]

Hello again Ahmed! So, you're finishing this color tutorials series, i'm right? After that, can you do basic tutorials? Like realistic face proportions ( and after how to put style on it ) or how to do good poses and composition, you know? The basics. And how is going your patreon? I'm really excited with your tutorials, you are so good at it! Thanks.

[@COLORPAPERPRINCESS]

Ahmed Aldoori your channel is very good and i like your videos too :) i subscribed

[@chocofro3]

A year and a half later and I finally bought the colour constructor haha. Rewatching this for reference.

[@linschannel_]

the little sketch turned into something like a scene from a cool animated movie lul

[@rodog9290]

Your channel is just awesome. Amazing work! :)

[@YenoWorld]

Man beautiful stuff once again x_x

[@DanielCruz-ju6yf]

formidable!!!

[@angelashackelford644]

Sorry to bother you, but do you think you could do a video on kind of finalizing a piece? I have a rough time deciding what line art should show through and what should be colored. I'd love to have your opinion on line art in general. Thanks! :D

[@pokemaster2464]

Great Video!

[@alexandrefreitas2569]

Wow this was amazing! Pretty cool tool, but of course without the knowledge and the skills it''s impossible to get these results. It sucks that your photoshop crashed, but in the end everything seems to have worked out very well :D

[@duncanmattocks1800]

A bit late to the party on this. I am super keen to get my hands on something like this but alas I still use photoshop CS6, I don't suppose you know of anything out there that can be used in an older version of Photoshop do you? All the prismatic colour palette tools for photoshop run on CC. Thanks for your time :)

[@tinyhobo2042]

Where can I get this image?

[@KyuiSensei]

First of all - amazing art! You are great! :) I have question, maybe two ;) What brush seattings do you use? Only treansfer? Do you use first local color (transfer off) and then put shading, lighting ect? Thanks! ;)

[@timotheemathon9492]

This is amazing ! Are you planning to add different types of materials possibilities in the future, such as metal, SSS and so on to see how it reacts with light?

[@murrylancashire]

timothée Mathon Yeah I have plans for adding in those things. I'm just trying to make sure the next release is as a solid as possible before i ship it out!

[@sethblingfan1785]

I though Colour Constructor was gonna be free... -_-

[@mamilleralmeida]

Love this app

[@milhouse777]

Turn on the auto-save/backup man haha, nice video

[@kiwispit18]

Right now my brain is scattered all across the floor by how color has confused me right now. Im studing color theory, ambient light, and how it affects other colors, if you could explain color in more detail in a future vid, that would be great! (or if someone can link me to any vids explaining color theory and things like that)

[@Eltonm28]

Argh this is wonderful!! :o

[@pepperwolf3819]

Are there any modern versions of this app?

[@greenazure4367]

Whats the song? Sounds chilled whatever it is

[@itsssjim]

more of this

[@suhaylaahmed5607]

ThankYouuu :)

[@goku21youtub]

final result is actually quite cgish in its look imho , good for concept art for a cg project

[@hannadang3329]

I bought this cool and it's fantastic! But I really want to know the song o: it's very calming

[@shiroiame2452]

working form a screenshot, fucking hero xD

[@pukao8570]

what's the music in the bg?

[@Soviet20]

Sorry noob question here using photoshop, but how do you keep painting over already colored sections without using a selection tool and it doesn't pixelate the edges, is it some sort of masking effect applied to the layer?

[@hannadang3329]

Tokki Rin Not sure if this will answer your question, but he used Lock Transparency on the layer

[@Soviet20]

:U was messing around a couple of days and found it was the Transparency Lock. Still thank you! :3

[@JediMediator]

Is this a Photoshop plug-in, or a standalone program? I only use GIMP for painting, so I want to know if I can still use this tool.

[@brandy1999]

+Josh Klope Its standalone

[@itsssjim]

use Krita if you want a free program, gimp sucks.

[@gepo0111]

which brush opacity you use?? 100%? pd: nice work and colours!

[@hellowordoo]

Hey Ahmed, I wanted to know which software do you use for screen recording?

[@Brujitaloveskurama]

Adiós... Hasta pronto c:

[@diamond-nj6fx]

My answer might be in this video but I can't watch it at the moment. Is there a way to upload the swatches that you make into photoshop? If so, how?

[@diamond-nj6fx]

That should definitely be a feature to add but, thank you!

[@JazGalaxy]

+Ahmed Aldoori You might already know this, but if you select the eye dropper tool and hold down the "alt" key, if you click once inside photoshop and then drag the eyedropper out of the Photoshop window, you can sample colors from outside the program. So if, for instance, you had a color inside your web browser that you wanted to sample, you would alt-click-eyedropper and then scroll the mouse over to the browser window. Let go and Photoshop will pick up the last color that the mouse is hovering over. It saves a lot of time from having to bring photos into photoshop. (or illustrator, in my case)

[@nakimishiyumi3744]

Can I have the link to download color constructor ?

[@Renmiou]

[@tai0purto]

I thought the mushrooms were strawberries in the thumbnail of the video.

[@tai0purto]

+Tai Porto This was very useful, I like it.

[@nissenyaart7171]

Anyone else finds that those mushrooms look like giant tomatoes? I couldn't get it out of my head xD

[@DanielTejnicky]

holy fuck!
