Staff MattP Posted December 30, 2014 Staff Share Posted December 30, 2014 Fantastic, really useful tutorial, Paolo - thank you!!! (Interestingly, my computer just auto-corrected 'tutorial' to 'tortilla' - I wonder what that says about me!?!) Hope you have a great New Year too! :) paolo.limoncelli 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CartoonMike Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Great tutorial. Cleared up a few things. Thanks! re: autocorrect -- but when I type in technobabble, it doesn't autocorrect or flag it as misspelled.

retrograde Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 This thread is getting a little cheesy... but seriously... Nice dino Paolo.

paolo.limoncelli Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 Ahaha! Thanks! This thread is getting a little cheesy... but seriously... Nice dino Paolo. Is it all pixel or is there any vector... any chance of seeing the wires? (outline view) Sure! I'll share the entire process which is pretty common... Used the blue pencil to sketch a fast layout as a base Then traced refined shapes The very last step is the "real" painting, for shading and texturing. I used these shapes as clipping layers (paint within the shape) and the PainterPacked. peter and Hanzz 2 Quote The white dog, making tools for artists, illustrators and doodlers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosa cobos Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 thank you so much Paolo....to download your genrous sharings is great but to have learnt how to custom or do my own brushes is much better. This is exactly what I wa looking for. Now...I can give it a tryl It would be wonderful to. do a t utorial dedicated to brushes , f rom scratch... to know how the app is working with them. And the essence, the real "soul" of it. I had a long time to learn the layer basis on the digital tools. Now I understand it perfectly. It has happened the same with the brush creating, but though I did manage it in Ps I was not able to do it in Ad or AP. The t utorial is great and really nice to see it in images instead of a movie cliop, for. you have time to stop along the way and read and think about what you are seeing.

paolo.limoncelli Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 Thanks Rosa, you're welcome! ;) Take a look at this one too, it goes a bit deeper into the engine and explains how multiple nozzles work. http://www.paololimoncelli.com/parametric-bristle-brush-model/ The second part is still baking...
