How To Paint HOLOGRAPHIC SKIN Like

[@apterus-illustrations]

wow, i just noticed the mention (i haven't been a very good social media person lately ':D ) it is very interesting to see an in-depth analysis of a process that became almost automatic to me. i learned things and noticed what i haven't noticed before! when next time someone asks me about my colors, i'll just point them to this video, you've done a much better job explaining what is going on than my previous attempts at it. thank you!

[@SrishCreates]

Oh my gosh thank you so much! I've been such a huge fan of your work for so many years, and I'm so so grateful that you've taken a moment to watch and comment. Thank you so much! 😭😭😭

I would not be surprised if the real reason for this comment by Apterus is to send the viewer on wrong path and that his paint process is totally different, and I totally understand him wanting to keep it a secret after all the years spent in a strict eastern European Art school studying classical techniques and the arduous time, he spent transferring that knowledge to digital then unlocking and understanding every hidden feature of PS. LOL

Peter Polach picked a palette of perfect paint

I'm dying, I really appreciate the time u take to do this ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

WHAAAAAAT??? His art style is GENIUS like the Einstein of art, & you actually figuring it out, then explaining it to us is also GENIUS. I can't even comprehend lol my brain!🤯 I'll need to rewatch, cause even though I have zero expectations on my capability, the challenge is too epic😍

[@SrishCreates]

Ahahaha I haven't even scratched the surface of how incredible his work is, so this is a huge compliment. Definitely try it out, you'll learn so much just by giving it a shot! 😄

[@VelvetKatOfficial]

@@SrishCreates 😊 just saw your post about your art on IG, so after I try out this technique, I'll share it with you. So nervous!! Haha

[@SrishCreates]

@@VelvetKatOfficial I look forward to it, please feel free to DM me! 😄

[@scoiataeli]

I need to rewatch the part with rainbowbrush, as it is my first time hearing it and it is something that I really need 🙀

[@maxperegrine7055]

Great video, it's awesome to see someone break down the greats like this! One thing that might help is to be mindful of your value ranges. If you make the skin too contrasty, it could end up looking like metal

[@SrishCreates]

Oooh that is a really good point, especially when you paint skin to have these unnatural colours! Thank you! 😄

[@bluespark777]

Super helpful !

[@SrishCreates]

Aww I'm glad! Thank you! 😄

[@demnachung]

[@SrishCreates]

[@evette866]

Could you please make a video on awanqi’s art? I absolutely love their work, and I would love it even more if I could understand it better! They’re such an inspirational artist to me, thank you so much!

[@SrishCreates]

Ooooh I think this has been requested before, I'll look them up if I haven't already! Thanks! 😄

[@evette866]

@@SrishCreates Thank you so much!!

[@vermillianno]

yess I second this. awanqi's art is amazing.

[@zaram7391]

Actually I like the first one too!

[@SrishCreates]

Aw that's sweet, and also you're a braver person than I am 😂😂😂

It’s better to do bad art than to do boring art

No. No! I am _not_ doing this. I'm only just now beginning to get a grip on holographic clothes. Using this for skin is right out! I will _not_ be considering this for any characters I will work on in the future. I refuse. Although... No! Uh uh. Nope. Won't do it. Don't care how cool it will look if I can master this. It would look pretty darn cool, though, wouldn't it? Couldn't hurt to at least give it a try. I mean, it's not like I would be using it all the time, or anything, right? Just once or twice, here and there, wouldn't be so bad... And Logic? Pft. That's that new fangled thing the kids these days are doing, isn't it? Look, just because everyone else is doing it, doesn't mean you have to as well. Don't be a sheep, people! Though, it does remind me of a lesson that I wish I could say I learnt a long time ago, but the truth is I'm still learning it today. "Trust in the process" doesn't just apply to trusting that what you're doing will work out in the end no matter how it may look right now. "Trust in the process" also applies to trusting that you will know that something isn't going to work. At the risk of sounding all mystical and metaphysical here, if something you're working on is not going to work, you are going to _know_ it instinctively. It won't be just a hunch, or a feeling, but an absolute certainty. But here's where you're going to have to be careful: be sure that what you're feeling is an actual truth, and not just your insecurities bleeding through. It's very easy for those doubts to bubble up, so you have to be able to recognise those doubts as soon as they arrive. That way, you can push them aside while you let your "trust in the process" work. Also remember, this certainty will arrive at different points in your works. Sometimes, it'll come to you in your concept phase, sometimes while you're putting in your preliminary line work, and sometimes when you're half way through your colouring and rendoring. If it arrives, stop. Go back a few steps to see where you went wrong. You might be able to salvage what you've done. But then again, you might have always been on the wrong path and will have to start over again. If that happens, sigh if you feel the need, shake your head if you must, smile if you can. And then start over. But here's the good news: that certainty that will let you know for sure if something isn't going to work is the exact same certainty that will let you know if something you're working on is definitely going to work. This is why you have to be able to identify your doubts and insecurities so you can push them aside. The more you're in tune with the "trust in the process," the more it will be able to let you know earlier on whether you're on to something that will work or not. It will save you a lot of time you didn't need to spend on a work that you weren't meant to do. And if it doesn't, well, it'll definitely help you to smile a lot more often than you will sigh. God, I hope that made sense.

Oooooooh this is actually super powerful omg! It is so funny how art imitates life, I've honestly learned so much about life through art and vice versa. And you're absolutely right, huge part of trusting the process is trusting your own ability to notice mistakes when they pop up. However, I'd like to add on to that by saying we need to learn to also trust when something goes right! More often than not, self doubt manifests in like a million different ways, and while it might be impossible to catch them all, that has got to be the end goal, right? Thank you so much for the super insightful comment, I always look forward to them with every video! 😄😄😄
