[@Gondohar]

This was really interesting, and I certainly feel like it will help a lot of students! But, I feel like there is one pretty huge thing to remember about this lesson, which is Local Value! This Lambert Scale works great for very lightly colored objects, but remember if you are shading a dark object, you won't be able to have such a dramatic difference between the light and shadow family of values. When you have an object or model with a naturally dark local value, the value structure will have to be shifted. That being said, the Lambert Scale can still be used for shading the light family, but a tonal shift will need to accompany it to accommodate for dark local values.

[@Ellionart]

Also it only works for spotlight, not diffused light

[@Gondohar]

@@Ellionart - I think it could work for other lighting conditions, but it would be MUCH more complex. For diffused lighting, it seems like you would just need to consider the fact that a lightly colored object would be very bright and you would only see ambient occlusion.

[@McKurdi]

@@Gondohar glad I’m not the only one here noticing this. I have not even once done a drawing where I can go from light to dark so fast, if I do that it becomes flat and ruins my drawings. And I do a lot of realism so my job is 80% shading, even with my tattoos since I’m a tattoo artist as well. This lambert value scale don’t make sense at all. The more values, especially the mid to darker tones I give my drawings, the more depth they get.

[@McKurdi]

@@Gondohar even the drawings he shows in the video doesn’t follow the lambert scale lol. They all have a very smooth transition, as it is supposed to be of course

[@zerosenpai4324]

it works with an object with one light source and turning off the bounce light because bounce light is just another light source but so much weaker. If you apply the law to every light ray. It will look realistic. This law is how we identify form.

[@vashdesigns1556]

Dorian shows works from his student days wtf, I need another lifetime.

[@futurestoryteller]

My drawings were praised for most of my life, but I never got formal training, and I stopped drawing for a long while. I don't think anything I do is of professional quality. In some ways there's nothing more infuriating than seeing what Sargent could do at 19. It makes you feel like if you were ever any good you should be there by now. But who knows, negative outlooks aren't conducive to positive results.

That really did blow my mind. Wowww. I sort of knew the tones near the terminator should be a bit darker so that there's a nice gradation from the light side to the shadow side, but I didn't know there was a science to it! And I also didn't know about "dirty" lights where you could mistakingly make the tones on the light side too dark. Thank you! Thank you for the step-by-step process as well. As an inexperienced artist, I always never know where to begin. I just fumble my way through until it looks right. But having a process will help do things faster and confidently.

[@CreativeSteve69]

This was really helpful. I noticed when I took my drawing class at school that Shading was one of my weakest points to tackle. I so would love for Dorian to do a shading course. :) Also thanks Stan for introducing me to these lovely artists the past decade i've been following ya.

[@nutsandbolts1264]

It explains so much! The reason art looks realistic in shading isn't because there's more shade than light it's because it's the exact opposite, one angle greatly increases the percentage, so basically if you want realistic shading don't go all out instead work it up slowly until the light highlights the drawing. It's either light or no light!

[@Jens_Art]

Oh woooow, now I’ve truly seen the light! 🤩 Mindblowing, indeed! 😄💪

[@scruffymakaveli6870]

Marshall's perspective and Dorian's shading course will probably be the most important courses for beginners. I am really excited about this.

[@wakabaloola]

I don’t understand where Dorian is getting his numbers from (?); doesn’t Lambert’s cosine law give: cos(80 degrees) = 17% rather than (3:09) 45% and cos(10 degrees) = 98% rather than (3:58) 99% ?

[@iadtag1853]

Talk about staying on your lane. He tried explaining the physics of it, man. But failed in some ways. The incidence angle part is also cringeworthy but you just have to understand to understand I guess.

[@wakabaloola]

iadtag look. Dorian supposes that all artists have got shading wrong in a subtle way, and then goes on to explain the correct way. the concepts are nicely explained, the first 8 min are all about Lambert’s cosine law. However, all numbers and tables quoted are wrong (the first 8 min), so i’m slightly surprised that (a) proko didn’t realise this; (b) that Dorian didn’t realise this. In particular, in addition to the mistakes i mentioned above, all numbers in the table at 4:11 are wrong, the correct values (to two significant figures) being, 10 -> 98% 20 -> 93% 30 -> 86% 40 -> 76% 50 -> 64% 60 -> 50% 70 -> 34% 80 -> 17% 90 -> 0% the so-called Lambert value scale at 4:52 is consequently wrong also, because it it based on the table the sphere shading at 5:07 also looks wrong (it transitions too sharply to darks), again because it is based on the. wrong scale the cosine function diagram at 5:48 doesn’t look like a cosine everything after the Lambert scale discussion, after 8:10, is excellent imho, although that was meant to be an add on.

[@ronfrancis6012]

@@wakabaloola The cosine law gives the radiance, but he is also converting radiance to brightness. I think he's using a simple gamma correction formula used in sRGB because the more accurate formulas make the values a little lighter that he states.

[@wakabaloola]

@RonFrancis thanks for your input, it’s appreciated. what is the relation between radiance and brightness? can you point to a reference? Dorian mentioned a cosine dependence, and if the said conversion you mention involves the angle it won’t be a cosine anymore.

Thanks you! I've been painting and drawing for a million years, and the Lambert scale is a revelation!

[@Proch936]

I think there's a mistake. Considering lambert cosine law at an angle of 80° you should get 17% of the light. A 45% is more to a 55° angle. Or am I wrong on lambert law?

[@AdmiralSamStarcraft]

That is correct for the radiance, but I think he also takes into account our nonlinear perception of brightness. When a surface is reflecting 50% of the light, we interpret it as 75% brightness. So the “linear” scale he showed was actually nonlinear in brightness but linear in perceived brightness.

[@___9136]

@@AdmiralSamStarcraft That explains why it reminded me of sRGB vs linear RGB luminance diagrams. It looks like the equation is something like cos(n) ** 0.4545 then (results: [1.00, 0.99, 0.97, 0.94, 0.89, 0.82, 0.73, 0.61, 0.45, 0.00]) .4545 or (1/2.2) is an approximation of the standard sRGB gamma curve. so.. I THINK that the values shown are specified in sRGB space, but as a percentage. That has some problems, mainly that it really only works for that particular color -- you can't just scale the values to get the correct curve for mid-grey, for example. You have to calculate where the color you want is in linear scale, remove the gamma correction from the curve, scale the curve, and re-apply the gamma correction. Well.. my conclusion is that supplying the values in the particular format he has, is much less useful than it looks. Working in linear color in your paint program would be a more solid way to address this.

[@morebagful]

@@AdmiralSamStarcraft So the explanation is only partly to do with physics/optics and the explanation for the rest is to do with how perception works?

[@teinili]

I dont know anything ablout gamma correction or whatever but If you simulate the Situation with blender and select sRGB as a Display Device you get the scale he shows in the Video. But if you switch to "None" the values are the actual cosine values. Not sure what I can conclude from that though :D *Edit: Just realized the values didnt match for the lighter areas so I am very confused now
