I am sooo happy you did a cyber Sci- Fi painting. It’s just sooo beautiful and the way with are strong warm tones and cool tones just has me in awe. You never fail to put out gem videos ❤❤.

[@EldritchUniverse]

I LOVE these videos. I wish Clip Studio Paint would sponsor you to do these every week. I love your rendering style and always marvel at how you translate that to digital paintings which is the only medium I engage with.

[@AlpayEfe]

That would be cool!

[@renealbrechtsen9743]

Digital artists usually go way overboard with their layers. 50+ layers for every brush stroke they make and use layer modes (multiply, overlay, etc) on everything. It's nice to see something a bit more on the "traditional" side.

[@icefireobsidian7490]

Oddly enough waaay back in ancient adobe photoshop days (version 5) too many layers could cause a server to crash… especially if the file had raster and vector files mixed in. Not that I ever accidentally took out a server at a print shop as a junior graphic artist or anything…. *darts eyes around* I tend to use always shift back to one layer from maybe three … trained as a traditional artist and sometimes I need to stay in one layer for my sanity lol 😂

[@Sara-pk8wv]

as a tradtional artisit I love the gouache brush in CSP it feels so. natural and textured. it is really a great program if you're used to traditional brushes

[@stephaniegrehan9084]

Your painting still looks like YOUR paintings even digitally. Cool as

[@franscisk]

The goat has blessed us again 🙏

[@AlpayEfe]

Haha 😁🙌

[@MoltenImaginings]

I really like the simple 3 layer painting process you talk about here. I am still very new at digital painting and what I struggle with most is removing the sketch lines without removing the whole layer. Also I need to be looser in my digital art. And this was very inspiring

[@Jon0326]

I love that Clip Studio is so artist friendly. It’s jam packed with so many tools.

[@igorzhur]

Please keep making videos like this with CSP. Very cool style! Thanks

[@ashrafomar5415]

I'm scared of too many layers , it can be frustrating, and makes the process less enjoyable when trying to keep up with all layers. it's absolutely inspiring to see your process and how you prioritize of what works for you over all distracting tools and still be able to make a beautiful paint. Thanks for the video.

[@kullenberg]

Using tons of layers is mostly for comic book style coloring, it's not necessary by any means.

[@sagmeister2234]

You should join David Finch on one of his Monday Night Draw episodes. He gets into color and painting on some of his episodes. That would be excellent.

[@AlpayEfe]

I’d totally do it

[@smotbutterman1127]

For a second I thought you were referring to the movie director.

[@md.boujee]

Your paintings looks so good 😍

[@tinneyo5714]

Alpay doing Alpay-things! Great work buddy 🙌🏼

[@mikeythepigeon7896]

I love clip studio and how you can customize the brushes. It's really fun to see how your process differs when using different mediums. It would be interesting to see you try out good old MS paint.

[@ChuckLeeMBM]

I was needing my Alpay fix!! Been a while, and im so happy you dropped this!! Love your content always and this is no exception. Great work my dude, and thanks for the content and tips!!

[@onstr]

I like the idea here. This is a really good and sound idea, definitely going to try it and most likely adopt it into my process.

[@igorzhur]

Definitely keep making videos like this with CSP. Very cool style! Thanks

[@lozantoninocreations]

Non digital artist here and one of the reasons for not trying it is the layers and knowing the best way to work. Actually I'll add brushes to that list, as I only have the Photoshop defaults and when I watch other YTers, they have so many custom brushes, I of course won't have. I appreciate you talking about your 3 later approach ans also that you're using pretty default brushes. You have answered my 2 questions/issues at the same time. 🙂

[@madebyzehra]

I proud of u as a turkish u making so much

[@dhruvnautiyal4276]

You are awesome ... 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

[@paulmccormack293]

sketchboard pro,its a gamechanger for the ipad :)

[@diegefahrten5554]

i really love your art style wether its traditional or digital. the way you use colors and leave some parts much more abstract than others ist truly amazing :) sometimes i would wish for a little bit more individuality in the faces though

[@kahramaneskidemir]

Oh I would like to pay for a digital painting course from you! Amazing content as always.

[@carlabudephane7486]

Yep, knowing when to walk away! I've just literally three hours ago done just that; been working on a painting of a lion for eight months and suddenly a few hours ago realised I had to walk away from it. Relief but also the nagging doubt that it wasn't 'as good' as it could have been. But six months too long 'for chrissakes! I have to learn, to make sure that I don't give so much time to another picture again.

[@da5idnz]

I feel you on the dangers of zooming in. Last year I started on a study of some pots on a shelf and didn't finish it. I just went back and added another pot and zoomed in too far while working and it looks like the resolution is too high and lines are too fine - doesn't match the pots I already had....

[@amandapeete7907]

Hahaha I am also an oil painter who is just starting to dabble in digital painting and I also instinctually set up my layers like this.

[@gurujot951]

I'd like to see him use Rebelle

[@kaycampbell364]

please step by step live painting

[@deniselisboa1]

wonderful painting!! Digital art is loads of fun. i wasted my clip studio free trial a few years ago and didnt do much with it due to lack of time XD can't say anything bad about the software though

[@carlingram1003]

This looks cool. Much better pricing options than photoshop too. Out of interest did you use any reference for this painting?

[@Quinix13th]

Liebe Grüße aus dem Workshop @Vienna :D

[@Marhoektube]

Hi, do you use any kind of screen protector? Thanks

[@drawzt]

❤

[@RobertoDomeArt]

Another awesome video, and beautiful art style. Are you using something like paperlike on the ipad screen?

[@AlpayEfe]

Yes… although I actually like the regular screen feeling as well

[@manuelchiacchiaretta6851]

it would be nice to see the reference you used. can you?

[@RodTiagoC]

How did you select between the two different blend modes?

[@NME10E]

Did you trace the under drawing or did you draw it?

[@winstonwesleydesign]

Did you use any layer blending modes such as in the beginning when you first put down the cool and warm colors? Did you use any blending modes for your highlights or shadows?

[@AlpayEfe]

I did not. Just straight painting

[@JiosLife]

I paint in the same way

[@williambreedyk7861]

Does the software allow you to switch two layers multiple times ? For instance, start with the drawing, paint over it, and then bring the drawing over the paint ?

[@kullenberg]

Yes, and you can also make a copy of the drawing layer and put it on top as well if you need to reinstate your lines. You can mask it out and only make certain parts of the lineart visible too.

[@MrNecropodo]

Hi, man saludos, Do you have a course online?, I will like to learn how to paint, I already draw, and I am not so bad, but when I try to paint i cant do it.

[@leonoradupreez9550]

What tablet and program are you using?

[@ReceiveMusic]

iPad Pro 12" and Clip Studio Paint

[@fuzzydragons]

Zooming in really close is def dangerous with digital lol get too focused on the details (i am sooo guilty of that lol)

[@ritpop]

In a few years we eill have videos like this using ai, untill 2010 we had a massive problemn with digital art and now its the default. Idk, i think is nuts and sad at the same time.hope im wrong

[@kservant71]

Nice! What software? Procreate? Sketch?

[@kservant71]

Never mind, ha ha! Clip Studio Paint!

[@Jon0326]

YES my brother in Christ, YES

[@dallas88b]

Be aware if you try this app on your ipad..... until you buy it you cannot save what you created not can you export it. Pretty pointless trial software I think. (Worse still, it is subscription fee only, and, inexplicably, more expensive than the one off license fee for a mac or PC copy)

[@user-rt7jl3cs4b]

Artist Cesar Santos blows you out of the water.

[@paul_domici]

Digital painting is a good tool but I prefer something hand painted!

[@victorinosparkajen9405]

digital doesnt feel right like the texture and vibrations your brush makes as you feel it through your hand. its simply not the same process and emotive feeling especially when your brush decides to oops and lose a hair into your work.

[@tiagomesquita6980]

Shame Clip studio has that disgusting subscription based plan on tablets... I will keep pirating on the pc.

[@Hanaa_MuslimaYemen]

I am your sister from Yemen, and by Allah I only spoke out of hunger and distress. My mother, my brothers, and I lessons and tears. We are in a situation that only God knows about. God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 15,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 45,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967736246190 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger. My family and I ask you, by God, if you are able to help us, do not be late and may God reward you well..`/--~«««~-♡~♡~♡~~•~•~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡♡؟?♡~~~: ~:~.~¡~~¡~¡~.~;I.i.i.i.i.i. i.I.|-.&__...،،.....،.،،،،،...،،..،،،،،،،،+_+_😮❤😮❤

Digital art sucks.
