Illustrating ImagineFX Issue 206 Cover - Process Video

[@TheSantifive]

This is great. Also, to anyone stressing over how much their stuff takes, this is clearly sped up and still lasts almost an hour (with the sketch already done). So just, keep at it it takes time and dedication and no one else can do it for you.

[@user-rb1qq7hn8p]

You can see the time in the bottom right corner. The piece took 4,5 hours to finish with the sketch done preemptively

[@cryptorcd9352]

@@user-rb1qq7hn8p Nah going from the clock at the bottom it was around 7.5 hours without the sketch. It was done in 3 sittings, date of the day changes

[@htsunmiku]

Tbh 4-10+ Hrs (of course give or take) is quite normal for digital artists. And when you're in the flow of things, you don't even notice the time. If anything it's people who work traditionally that get me (oil paints etc). They can spend weeks/months on a single piece.

[@toufikd561]

Nice motivation 😢

[@sebasstein7014]

@@htsunmiku Depends, a pretty decent landscape painting traditionally can be done in an hour or less.

[@ibrahimettolba1314]

I can't even imagine how much practice is involved to reach that level good job bro

[@augustpadao5459]

i love how u didn't say something like "talented",cuz that woud be disrespectful af

[@OscarMemo333]

not that hard. Im near that level of art. like 3 years of non stop hard work.

[@lexnaum]

@@OscarMemo333 3 years of practice and hard work would probably fall under "pretty hard"

[@ihsurart5389]

3 years minimum everyday for atleast 3 hours

Everything about this is so well done! The drawing part is just CHEF's Kiss

[@ricardocampos2614]

The time, the dedication, the passion... thank you for all the things you allowed me to learn through your content. Merry Christmas, wish you the best!

[@JuanCarlosVargasdesign]

It is because of people like you that after so many years I still have not given up with the pencil, thank you for sharing your art ...!

[@mujiii]

It is amazing! I don't get tired of looking at it.

[@CoryPaints]

Incredible work, man. Really. This goes to show people that work of this caliber isn’t just thrown together in five minutes. You covered the radius of your work area like, thirteen times total. Lots of artistic choices to make. Great job!

[@squarz]

As someone that is trying to do some art with decent results I'm speechless in front of the amount of details you put on this without any real reference. It's really something. Thank you

[@christopheyoungart]

Don't be fooled, I have a pureref file open on another screen with about 100 reference images and many years of experience drawing this kind of subject matter haha

[@kingerlander1404]

@@christopheyoungart that's amazing! As someone who loves mechanical detail such as you put on her backpack (or something like that), your work really inspire me.

[@Immortal_BP]

@@christopheyoungart yeah i used to think everyone drew from imagination, i got so frustrated when I was in art class and couldnt draw any complex art. like i would look at my own hand and draw it as reference and it would turn out great but then i try to draw a face from my imagination and it just did not work. that morphed into youtubing eye tutorials, lip tutorials, face tutorials etc. lol, not a good path to go down. I eventually figured out refrences are pretty much required, atleast until you become an expert like Jung-gi ;P

[@freezedriedfruits]

@@Immortal_BP i love jung-gi! so inspiring

[@virtualsnake1994]

@@christopheyoungart thanks for the honesty. great respect!

[@alppatuk]

The way you work is so fascinating. Amazing stuff.

[@matisse8623]

Amazing how this is traditionnaly treated. The sketch making really looks like someone drawing on paper. Easy to guess his practicing medium, beautiful. What am I doing spending more time watching this kind of videos than actually practice, damn

[@YThates]

I was so happy to find out you were going on a cover! Great work Christophe! -misterpickle

[@nagissacarbatt5403]

Sei il più grande al mondo , amo il tuo lavoro , spero poter disegnare come te, continua così formidabile

[@ghuff31]

this is awesome. Years ago, your Genzoman tutorial taught me to love the hue saturation (ctrl + U) shown here. Nice to see those techniques still being a great foundation!

[@MegaDeepbass]

Beautiful work and great lesson in technique and taste! Thank you!

[@jean-philippehuguet8783]

breathtaking !

[@thelastpage382]

The beauty of your work motivated me to get back to practice! You are most certainly my favorite artist, absolutely love your work.

[@paulogaviola5522]

When I see something like this, I feel ashamed to call myself a digital artist.. that said, amazing work sir!

[@elmind74]

Youre without a doubt my greatest artist, please post more

[@truthbelt614]

Gorgeous!

[@SogonD.Zunatsu]

This looks so old school, like in the beginning of digital art when people came from traditional art took a round brush and made due.

[@rocker761001]

wow this is absolutely fantastic, i don't have a single negative thing that i could say about this.

[@Inf1ltr81]

[@simscales]

Are you sure you're a human being? Please tell me how to be that patient! I almost never finish a painting, and watching this gave me so much anxiety and guilt, but I forced myself to watch it till the end cause OH MY GOD! You are an inspiration.

[@clagunner]

Wow so good. Every time 'This looks good enough...' Nope, lets add an insane amount of more detail! The arm tattoo was an inspired touch. Bravo.

[@DWileyNewMarket]

every time i see a masterpiece like this i try to pick up my brush and do something then i get sucked into the void of the white canvas and get lost in time

[@keroki932]

try doing photostudies then. you wont need to think about what to draw and stil improve your skills.

15:59 The Selection includes the red part, why didn’t it affect the red part in the end?😖😖can someone plz tell me🙏

[@AnittaDeady]

i tried (shift+option+delete) but it went the opposite way

[@melody_BP]

This might sound barbaric - but could Chris be using the paint bucket to fill in the color? That way it wouldn't affect the other colors in the selection

[@ravedragneel1266]

goddammmm such good artwork lovely work am
