Learning this new painting technique for the first time

[@palomaroggeri8680]

Procreate actually has a feature for gray scale called “gradient map” where you can put in colors for certain tones of gray so you don’t need to use layers modes and the colors turn out very vibrant. I don’t know how to explain it just writing it down but its very cool to mess with. Im currently studying Bo Chen’s artwork and splash art for league of legends in general and I am using gray scale and this procreate method.

[@moths.for.valentine]

the gradient map is good for checking values, but painting in colors and then turning it into grays and still painting over it doesn't really help you understand values, it's just a way to avoid really learning the fundamentals

[@palomaroggeri8680]

@@moths.for.valentine oh no I didnt do that, I painted first in gray scale and then added the colored gradient maps

[@aspenisthebest]

@@moths.for.valentinethat’s not even what it’s for.

[@katherinet4769]

Yes! And its also possible in photoshop! Hopefully she sees your comment and tries out this technique, its super helpful

[@Frostfern94]

CSP does too

[@luludraws2732]

The fact me and my friend just discussed use of grayscale and now this video pops up

[@Raexai]

If ur on iOS ur able to make a shortcut to double tap a button and have it auto switch to grayscale

[@jerzydude94]

Was literally searching for a grayscale tutorial the day before I saw this video lol

Means your phone is listening to you.

I’m almost exclusively do my digital paintings in greyscale, it by FAR helps me sort the ideas and values of an image way faster. But I usually do backgrounds/landscapes when I paint, not often people

[@petertobeyparker5848]

Can anyone just tell me names of all the brushes she used, please? I'll credit you in my piece😊

I would LOVE to see you critique the Hazbin Hotel character designs - I love the show, but I've seen a lot of discussion online about the various failings or successes of the characters, and the characters all have a lot they're representing in their designs. There are a bunch of scenes, especially where more than one main character is on screen in a closeup, where the characters feel like they're so busy the entire frame is just a jumble of sharp lines. A bunch of the characters feel more like OCs than characters in a multimillion dollar project. I'm just super super curious what your opinions are!

[@planetxtraa]

i second this!

[@bayonet_ta]

Yea it's a good idea

[@Jamiesaurus_Art]

My favorite art channel. 🎨 I love your work I love your philosophy I love that you remind me to push myself and learn new things. ❤🎉I've grown a lot since just being influenced by your channel, cannot help but give you credit for the immaculate vibes.

[@combedcloud]

The Greyscale method is my favorite method for painting! I love how I can create incredibly fine color variations that I normally wouldn’t be able to pull off with more traditional methods. It also forces me to focus on values and shading, which I sometimes struggled with in bigger paintings.

[@ChantelleArts]

Such a gorgeous technique, it looks wonderful ☺☺☺

[@jaykrow]

EARLY Gang where y'all at!!! plus cool art technique. very efficient

[@kokochono5054]

God bless you. I am going to try this tutorial!

[@SillyCelly411]

I just did a piece in greyscale (forcing myself to work on values and hard vs soft edges) and when I finally got to color it with different layer modes and gradient maps I was ready to be done. I think it can be a great process but I’m still trying to find ways to make it work for me.

Another great video. I’ve tried this method before and have also found it frustrating for a couple of reasons. 1. The color drift you get with the multiply layers as you found is an issue and trying to dial it in is off putting. 2. I struggle with the tedium of having all those layers and having to do a full b&w value painting. In my opinion I think this method works best for comic artists who pencil and color their own work or a colorist working over the pencils/inks of another artist who has already laid down the values. I’m going to experiment with a shorthand version that is just a sketch with loose block in of values a multiply layer that again is loose just to get some basic color on to those values and a third layer for the final paint to dial in the overall painting and colors as well as the brush work. Shouldn’t need more than 3 layers maybe 4 at the most.

I love your content so much. I always learn a lot 💚

This semester i started doing Visual art and your channel really helped me not going to lie xd, thanks! Now that i've noticed, your voice and face really resembles my visual arts teacher, like really, and she is from Canada too so hmmmm something smells fishy here Hahaha.

[@ThirdDegreeHugs]

Do you have a class, online practice or anything. I would absolutely love to just watch your videos and improve my art.

[@JackieDroujko]

I sure do have a class! Check out my domestika course! Https://www.domestika.org/en/courses/4992/jackiedroujko

U are so cool, i dont draw, but your videos are so interesting that i watch them all, maybe a will start drawing bc of u

[@ursamedven8564]

You amazing!

[@haleytice]

Love it! I'm confused on how the coloring process works over the values though! Did you use a color mode?

[@16LifeGames]

I love your channel. I now collect the books from the new art publisher The Guide Artists Publishing. They are beautiful. I subscribe to your channel.

[@thistlepatch]

Girl you chose such a complicated process 😅but I'm glad it worked for you! I'd have given up and merged everything halfway through lmao. I've been eagerly following your portrait progress because I'm kind of doing a similar thing right now, and I can really see your improvement! The forms are much more defined and 3-dimensional than when you started out. I don't know if you've tried this, but I find that paint + blend combo brushes help me a lot with portraits because it kind of keeps the process dynamic🤔. Keep it up Jackie! Looking forward to seeing more 😊

[@opal_penguin]

It looks desaturated.

[@layoutkimsstudio2341]

hello i dunno if this is normal... when i do a digital portrait in grayscale .. its abit off in value... but when i do color .. and then convert it to greyscale its spot on. XD i tried doing this grayscale convert to color but it leaves a greyish dull finish that i dislike.

[@gloria.]

Hm not sure about this one. Love the video though thabk u for showing process

Look I’m no pro at all. I think if your comparing to the pictures the hair I feel should have have ringlets, and the eyes in your looked a lot more sassy than the sweety eyes the picture had. Other than that I must say I could not even with how talented you are! I think well done

It’s a reference. She is not doing photo realism or copying the photo. She is taking inspiration from the reference and picking and choosing which aspect of the photo she wishes to use in her artwork

Can I just say, usually love your vids but that one was not very informative... :/

[@charlotte.534]

it wasnt really a tutorial shes just showing us how shes following a tutorial on something shes trying for the first time.

[@Dropthatpickle]

I dont think you should be critiquing other ppls art if youre just gonna trace the image. You say "its not a drawing test its a painting test", well drawing is the ground work for painting. If you keep tracing youre never going to get better. Just my opinion.
