@@silvercoloredlens I was injured on Christmas Day 2013, so it’s been a few years now. Art has helped my general mood levels, and my creativity has grown , my cognitive skills have suffered and they will always be lower than par. But I’m still here, and that’s what counts ❤️

[@silvercoloredlens]

@@julz63Thank you for sharing your story. 🙏 Art really does help us in a lot of ways. As for me, it's something that calms my thoughts and focus only on one thing.

THANK YOU- I am wandering in the wilderness creating plastic like Barbie skin. I need to bring life-texture, wrinkles, skin creases, bumps, blemishes, vascularity to make my skin appear alive-real and not doll like. This is a start. I am afraid I am still a kid with a crayon.

[@silvercoloredlens]

You're welcome. Keep practicing, and always remember to have fun while doing it. 🙂

[@lovewendolyne]

This is Amazing. LOVE your talent. How long did it take you to learn how to do this in procreate?

[@silvercoloredlens]

Thank you. It took me a about a couple of days or so to apply what I know and learned from using my wacom tablet + Photoshop methods. The learning curve was mainly on trying to get used to drawing directly on the screen. The layering and the blending was straight forward. 🙂

[@abdelhodroj1711]

Hey I want to tank you because i’ve learned a lot. I Also want to know how did you blend and what brushes did you use

[@silvercoloredlens]

My pleasure l, Abdel. I used the airbrush with 30% to 50% opacity to blend the colors. 🙂

Would it be possible to add step by step process as the changes in the brushes is still very difficult to understand. Also it would help to share the color palette.

[@SuperRockcore]

what do you do around the wrinkles.. could really use a close up/slow down/dumbed down explanation. anyway, ill give it a shot. thanks!

[@silvercoloredlens]

For the wrinkles, you would need to paint along the creases. For it to pop, you would need to know which areas are high (lighter values) / low (darker values). Imagine it in 3D. You also need to know your light source location. This will help you understand better as it dictates where to put the highlights. Hope that helps. 🙂

[@SuperRockcore]

@@silvercoloredlens okay okay.. paint around the wrinkles, get in close, can do.. do you go less saturated as you get lighter? I found advice that this would prevent muddyness. Thanks!

[@silvercoloredlens]

@@SuperRockcore yes, you can also do that for this case. If you want, you can practice painting in black and white or in monochrome to have a feel and then transition into using colors once you get the hang of it.

I love your voice🥰😍😘

[@silvercoloredlens]

Apologies for the bad audio quality. I will try and fix it on the next one. I hope the content value of this video was still delivered though. 😅

[@decode.666]

I have a question, if I may ... Is tracing a sketch considered cheating? Does it diminish the overall quality "feel" of the final artwork? Only talking about faces. Since my skill ain't good enough yet to simply "copy" a face from the reference free hand (I'm trying to that now more and more to learn), I sometimes trace the outlines and key areas of the reference picture/photo using the 6B pencil. After that, I'm going "solo". IDK how to feel about that ...

[@silvercoloredlens]

There's a lot of artists who will tell you that tracing is cheating. Personally, I consider it as a learning process. You have to get the hang of it and then eventually challenge yourself to break away from tracing and do it from scratch. Just remember, not achieving a perfect resemblance of your reference image is not a failure. It's your rendition of the art itself. 🙂

[@decode.666]

@@silvercoloredlens Thank you. I also take it as learning process. I've done a few paintings with tracing and without ... I'm still not 100% comfortable, though. I'm gettig there :) ...

I have a question. in Procreate What color settings do you use? srgb ? p3 ? What page size are you setting and drawing?

I use the p3 colour profile. canvas size is at 3200px (width) 4100px (height) for portraits and just switch them for landscape, both at 300 DPI.

[@intriqet8776]

The parts that would’ve been useful to me or anybody actually trying to paint skin would have been between step 5 and step 6. The steps that goes from crude lines and shading straight to utterly impressive life like detail (sus). So the title of this video is misleading because this doesn’t teach anybody how to make skin lifelike. If someone can share what they learned from this video that brought them closer to achieving the lifelike detail of the final portrait then please share.

[@silvercoloredlens]

Thanks for taking the time to watch the tutorial. 🙂 I know that it may seem difficult at first, but keep in mind that I have been doing the same fundamental process since I was just a child. It takes time and a lot of practice to be good at something. 😉 "There are several ways to bake a good bread, but only the great ones are crazy enough to persistently try and improve the recipe." I think I read that somewhere and it keeps me inspired to do more whenever I can and try to improve little by little. If you want, I made a timelapse video showing the same basic process: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fZXIcmmLad6nmM0feature=shared Hope this one encourages you more. Keep it up. 🙂
