I tried to draw like Qtonagi (and found a simplified drawing method) | Artist Study

[@tj.9499]

she said in one of her streams that she uses DAREK ZABROCKI's brush pack (btw your content is very helpful! and high quality I really like it)

[@tppoart]

ahhhh thank you! 👍

[@ilmn25]

random fact but i also heard her mention she has been drawing for 8 years

[@realestredacted]

@@ilmn25zamn only 8 years?? I’m surprised that is a lot of progress

[@nekosaikou8018]

@@ilmn25 she has been drawing digital arts for at least 13 years

[@marikuma88]

Very late, but are there any similar brushes for Clip Studio Paint? I googled his brushes and it said they’re only for Photoshop

[@mmm44158]

Qtonagi said in her last stream that she really impressed about your analys of her drawing process. Great job.

[@tppoart]

Really??? woowowowoow 🤯

[@bakk3731]

for the lines, i found that simply drawing it zoomed out like she does will already put you in right direction, since theres less control therefore giving it more natural "shake"

[@tppoart]

ahhhh I see

[@CheckeredLemonaid]

Qtonagi makes everything accessible yet she’s impossible to replicate and i think thats honestly inspirational when developing an art style

[@ShadowofArts]

What I love so much about these kinds of videos. Is that you are clearly not “copying” another’s art but studying it to improve your own. Finding techniques, examining what works well, and colors used. I also want to study to improve my understanding of different materials and shading.

[@temshopy1446]

You're so underrated for an art tutorial channel, i feel like i learn along with you keep up a good work. : ^)

[@tppoart]

🙌 thank you!

[@tppoart]

Hope this video was helpful! Lemme know what you want to see more/ less of in these artist study videos, so I’ll know how to improve the next one!

[@Shioyacchi]

I really hope you can analyze the paintings of LAM or Fajyobore. Thank you so much!

[@iwanticecreamrnfr]

can u do a study on hanacue's art? (i think thats their name)

[@t-ben5634]

Astonishingly attractive editing!! Very well-structured and in-depth video. I love the analysis of your own work and your ability to embrace the differences from Qtonagi. ur art is absolutely superb keep up the work :DD

[@tppoart]

thank you!

[@Ghost-hd5cu]

One thing that I noticed you might've not picked up is a shading technique not often taught, but you see it everywhere. We're taught to shade a cyllinder with it getting darker on the edges if the light source is in front of the cyllinder, but you can also light it on one side with either a bounce light hitting the opposite side or another light source. Most often in this technique, I see atmospheric bounce light on the other side. The technique is to shade the center vertical line, or closest vertical edge of an upright cylinder, as the darkest point. Then apply a little atmospheric lighting on the other side of the darkest edge. 6:11 they arent actually just 'blending between two colors' she's putting that slight atmospheric lighting on the inner part of that shadow, with a transitionary dark part on the edge of the shadow. I see this technique ALL the time in japanese, painterly art and it's good to learn! A simplified version: some, but not all shadows have their darkest point along the transitioning edge of the shadow. You'll see a small line that doesn't always connect all the way along the transition. Sometimes this line is a deep orange when there is a harsh light block hitting the skin, then as you get further into the shadow, it'll lighten back to cooler blue tones. Krenz Cushart, Quruiqing, and this artist play with those transitions a lot. This piece of art is htt (ps://) twitter (.com/) quruiqing/status/1285082462964477952 a good example thats a little more graphic in use than painterly. You can see it a lot on his knees and thighs.

[@tppoart]

Wow thank you! I've been wondering about this 'line' between shadows and light for the longest time. Do you know if there's a terminology or name for this transition technique?

[@LU-hn4kv]

I wish to get with my art to the point where people would study my style too.

[@shinsekai101]

keep working hard! especially if you are still young, you have plenty of time. I have up due to my work demanding more of my free time and I had to sell my wacom since it was only gathering dust. Chase your dream my dude! Dont regret it later! Good luck!

ngl this channel deserves more subs. The way he explains the techniques is easily understandable + the video editing is great. youtube randomly recommended me this video. And I m loving it. Great work.

[@farahsyaheera2358]

I love the one with the detailed background! It looks fun to do and feels like light-hearted children's storybook

[@Annie0619]

even she said she don't care people copy her art style and also puting out so many process vids I still could never learn how to do it the details in her art is just insane🤯 （I need her brain🙏）

[@zkme2734]

I'm really happy the algorithm finally gave you love, you really inspire me to continue to practice my art.

[@mayacold8263]

Thought I was just trippin when 9:21 showed up Great video! The editing for the different artists is such a nice detail, you're a real artist!

[@cappipa2910]

I hope you continue to make this! I love your content! I never seen something similar and for this kind of more modern/contemporary anime styled artists that have a huge impact on "the internet" aesthetics this days! I also enjoy a lot your style of editing and voice over. It is really on point. I feel like I learned a lot, thank you so much!

[@svkopm]

Gosh! Im looking for my artstyle and I was really inspired with Qtonagi! I love to draw this antique stuff, it feels like sky and heaven (for you to know, Im really enjoying heaven dreamy theme), and your video helped me so much! It directed me in right way, and now I understand absolutely everything in her drawings and her art logic thanks to your explanations!

[@davidebic]

I found out about you just today, but I already fell in love with your videos. I think the main reason why your first attempt failed was the hair. Already from the line art I had a sense of discomfort comparing it to Qtonagi's. I think the main reasons are two, the length, and the detail. You drew your hair as a single, shapless mass that lacked detail. Qtonagi on the other hand, from what I saw, really likes to draw many single chunks of hair, making it very detailed. Also, your hair was way too long, making the proportions of the legs fade out. You analysed her proportions just to break them by drawing incredibly long hair, making the leg disproportion hard to notice. But I have to compliment you on your second attempt. Even though you said you weren't confident with painting, you still made an amazing job. Imitating other's brushwork is one of the hardest things to do.

[@tppoart]

Ahhh I see. Thank you for the feedback! 🙏

I think the "fluffy" lineart she achieves honestly comes from having a lot of experience and confidence behind the drawing.

Instead of the color overlay i'd try a gradient map, that way you could add blues into highlights and get better reds in the shadows.

[@mymzi]

Awesome video as always, really likes how you explained it's very understandable. Please keep it up! Also, my suggestion for the next video it would be great if you try and break down my favorite artist Rolua or Helloclonion art style since he uses photoshop and really good at maximizing the feature of the software.

[@DOT107]

a bit late but she's seperating the backgroudn, midground, and foreground via contrast. basicaly if the BG is paler, the Foreground(most of the time the character) is darker, and or vice verse. Your work just kind off blended everything because there wasn't a contrast to seperate the BG and the FG.

[@bebekliar6745]

while streaming, qtonagi had mentioned that using Grunge brushes (not really sure how to use them for sketching or coloring)

I'm having a hard time trying to breakdown Cierra （シエラ, m_seseragi) 's artstyle :( I've always admired their artstyle. The way they used the colors, did lineart, and more. I didn't know where to start. They are one of the artists in Arcaea. Please help! I would appreciate it and help me with my process! Cierra doesn't give much hints so it's gonna be a little hard which is why. The only time I've gotten to replicate their artstyle was just copying an artwork. I've subscribed! To know if you'll ever make it or not :')
