[@onthemove201]

hey thanks, not many teachers put their work online, this is extreemly benificial to most of us, amazing tutuorials!!! keep them coming, thank you!!

[@Aquaneos1193]

You get into so much detail compared to other channels on KZbin. Thank you so much.

[@zgaryhall]

This is pure genius, the more I watch your tutorials the better they get.You have a brilliant style I never fail to be impressed by your work.

[@Illumirage]

Must say, that was pretty awesome what you said, "This is for the community, I'm not trying to sell you the school." Coming into this, I figured it was, kind of an incentive to enroll. But you don't care about that, that says a lot about you. Thanks!

[@2geez_art]

i think everyone's already said it but i'll say it again seein ur vids n learnin from them im really beginnin to push myself in the landscape department. always used to focus 100% on character design from watchin ur vids ive realised landscape is just as important.

[@gdsworld]

Keep'em coming Feng! You rock....

[@CSMethod]

these videos are excellent, every each of them is just awesome, especially the style and the production pipeline is just great . And I watched Feng since he made that video on gnomon -painting robots, and then the gnomon masterclass also very nice .

[@JaDeeeee3097]

PERFECT!!! I am thankfull.... BTW there are not only very young people in here ;-)))) Drawing and painting can also be a hobby, as you said painting aliens and monsters is endless fun!

[@FEARLESSHYENADESIGN]

I need to build up my library of images! Great video, thanks for the lovely tips!

[@tr1tan]

i'm going to save all of these videos just in case he takes them down or stops doing them... they are too good lol. seriously feng is the god of concept art. if i had the money i'd go to that school in a heartbeat.

[@lasthavoc]

First off Feng I kust want to thank you so much for what you have been willing to share. You're incredible sir. I realize fundamentals are something you'd like to avoid but I was just wondering if you could do a video on a side to side comparison of how light bounces off circle, squares, spheres, and cylinder from one or two light sources and angles. If it isn't fair to your students, then disregard the request and keep rockin'.

[@ronny302]

Amazing stuff. It looks so planned out, but is improvised. ..stunning. Thanx for your tutorials.

[@towakun6678]

Every time I listen to these videos while I'm working my brain just gets into super-creativity mode - I'm more of a medieval fantasy guy and not really into sci-fi but when I listen to these videos I suddenly wanna design sci-fi stuff and find it super cool lol It's like these videos brainwash me, but in the best way possible lol

[@DodderingOldMan]

Wow, excellent tutorial, perfect combination of talent and knowledge on display here.

[@Floatharr]

One thing I'm interested in is beginning to come up with original designs/ideas. Drawing from reference and life is easy, but without any help my mind's drawing a blank. One critique about your painting is that the atmospheric perspective on the middle tower vs the structure are too much the same value. Same with the character and the far right tower. Unless it's intended, ofc :) Many thanks for another great tutorial. These are always a real treat and I look forward to it every time.

[@justtimeticking]

I cant wait for the coming videos.

[@Emanon009]

Looking forward for Traditional work !

[@WildernessSlimes]

I learned a lot just from this one episode. Thanks!

[@Fengdesigns]

Thanks for the comments. Regarding academic studies: It's not about the paper or degree, but what type of education is provide to meet your career needs. In our industry, nobody cares about your degree or diploma. Not a single client ever asks for a resume; but instead, they want to see a "project list" and your portfolio. So build that portfolio - it's all about the portfolio. Even experience is sometimes trumped by an amazing portfolio.

[@doughntworry]

well i would love to see a video about perspective even if it was "boring" its something thats very important... but i totally understand that you cant share your whole course with us :D i love your tutorials and they are really helpfull the way they are! keep them up

[@FZDSCHOOL]

[@LolFishFail]

I'm trying to learn how to make concept art for a game that I'm making. Thanks for these tips, it's really appreciated. I live in Wales, UK so as you can imagine, I can't attend a school in Hollywood :) Would you ever consider selling a DVD or something, with those more in-depth tips?

[@kwantylion]

MASTER!!! MORE!. I'm from the academy of fine arts, and I learned much more while watching your videos , than I learned at my classes ...thank you for that! please say something about brushes...:)

[@karkof]

Looking forward to the upcoming videos. Awesome stuff. Shame about the no on perspective though...

[@bluegiant13]

thanks for the videos man! i watched them almost every day, iam in the first year of a graphic design school in the netherlands ,but because of this vdeos im wayy ahead of my clasmates ,im planing to do game art !

[@bangbangteng]

@MattOBrien2212226 Yeah, You can set up an adjustment layer above everything that reduces everything to BW. Then just paint underneath using any method you prefer (overlay, dodge and burn, or what have you...) and then turn off the adjustment layer when you need to go back to color! p.s. Feng didn't respond, this was me just figuring out the simplest way I could think of to replicate his trick.

[@GAWproductions]

I'm so happy that these are still being made. Amazing work, Feng. If you can say, what movie are you working on?

[@aldyshinwa]

Dude this is awesome, thx

[@beaubidness6622]

I LOVE your videos.

[@nerddrrage]

Wow this has helped me so much in my illustration project. THANKS!!! :D

[@lasthavoc]

@tkawaii Solid suggestion. Thanks, I'll look it up!

[@TheRussianBlackSmith]

Feng Is the best

[@andrewsmith6772]

How would one go about finding a good job as a concept artist for say a video game company or something? something more organized than just freelance work

[@DeasyCharacterArt]

Hi, You mentioned some suggestions. I've been following through these video's from the start and again, thank you, because they're the best kind if tutorials i've came across on the net and i've picked up quite a bit from it. as a suggestion. maybe a how to use tutorial on some of the tools like the colour adjust adn so on that you use alot would be nice.

[@terrydrain]

Something I would really like to see is you doing spaceship/craft design^^ You probobly alredy coverd it but in depth~

[@obscure741]

dont stop these tutorials very helpful for beginners

[@abigolchezburger]

lol i had no idea about this industry until your videos xD

[@shinsource]

Hi, Feng thanks so much for these tutorials. Are your textures from a commercial collection or personal? Would love some sources to know where to start gathering.

[@bangbangteng]

These videos are great Feng! One question: How are you adjusting the values in a desaturated mode, then switching back to color and keeping those value changes? You can see it at around the 6:15 time mark. That's the only technique that made me scratch my head... :/ Thanks!

[@skytopiea]

dude, ur amazing

[@cetriyasArtnComicsChannel]

@lasthavoc might want to try getting Gurney's book 'color and light' off amazon

[@Kiwi888-t9p]

ni hao mate, keep up the good work, just subscribed!

[@bangbangteng]

@MattOBrien2212226 Pretty sure he's using an adjustment layer, to just desaturate it, then possibly make scaled changes like overlayed masks or curves adjustment layers.

[@eklerrr]

@kwantylion I left my academy.. As far as i can guess you are from Warsaw/Kraków/Poznań? I am from Kiyv and I left my academy. I thankful fot it;s fundations though. some really great stuff, it really helps to understand what Feng Zhu and others guys who share with us knowlege(mostly on forums) more deeply.

[@Versulas]

I love that he left the hollywood sign in XD

[@Hardboi01]

dude that was awesome!!! Any tablets you recommend for a beginner?

[@MegaYousir]

thank you, this is very helpful :)

[@KashanArtist]

Hi I am from Pakistan I am teaching art at University and various art schools since 1997 I want to learn from you and your school how it's possible guide me.

[@KJamesSr]

Do you have a video outlined just textures? How do you get them in their, and how do you paint them in yet leave some of it out?

[@TheLukaszencja]

and i learn perspective on my own, once i run out of materials i will take some private lessons ;D

[@hoteltech]

Feng is a badass

[@snjorRefur948]

I can draw well but i lack imagination, can i fix this kind of problem? I love doing this kind of things but creativeness in perspectives has been one of my lowest qualities, is there any way to improve it?

[@Crybaby-wl4gn]

Hi. ik this comment is 8 years ago, but im curious how's your progress?

[@Fantasy2012dz]

did you use hard brush for your sketch as always?

[@kwantylion]

yea...I'm from Warsaw...and I'm here just to get the papers...no papers no work:(!

[@afhbvutrncbfkjbgjs]

can you please make this into a background? i'd like to show this off to my friends.

[@richiemakowski6904]

when u said the thing about bluring ur eye i was shocked bc i do tht all the time but i thought i was just weird

[@bensparrow9250]

how do you do that skewed freeform transform?

[@erwin11933]

Hi I love your art work I'm from Hartford CT I want to know how can I get to your school and what kind of benefits do your school have please send me a massage or information about it

[@FZDSCHOOL]

[@justtimeticking]

The reason why Zebra pattern is black and white, is because lions dont have color vision.

[@ChibiMisaki]

lol, he said sexy...XD

[@Cruelhazard]

You seriously paint opaque? That blows my mind man. I have to use opacity jitter or it comes out weird.

[@hannesdelbeke]

i don't get why you say perspective is so hard it's so easy to learn

[@1jeivanci]

heeeey, math-like dry perspective IS sexy!

[@eklerrr]

@kwantylion I left my academy for that reason. You pay money for "art summer camping" kinda stuff and even if you do not pay money you lose your time dong so much lame stuff. i apritiat thoght fundations of my Academy.

[@TOER1113]

zebra style ))

[@DRGIZMO29]

dude you're like a salarian. you're very brilliant but u talk to fast for me :( lol
