Genre: Video Tutorial / Drawing, Adobe Photoshop
In this DVD, Cecil takes the initial idea sketches created from the first volume of this series, “Ideation Sketching” and paints them digitally using Adobe Photoshop. From ten-minute building shading to coloring a vista layout for a futuristic city, Cecil will use basic painting layer techniques to put down value, color and lighting into multiple scenes.During this process, Cecil will also edit the structure design of some sketches as he paints them. Watch as Cecil breaks down his efficient workflow; demonstrating how he preserves line drawing as he separates value and color in multiple layers, and focuses more on readability and defining shapes rather than surface material rendering. This technique allows him to quickly present painting concepts for a production team to review.
