Photoshop :: Digital Painting Tut?

Apr 17, 2005

i'm speaking of painting with a tablet from scratch using brushes. i need something thorough. i've been looking but can only find concise tutorials that really don't tell me much.

i've sort of hit a road block. smudging colors together isn't getting it done for me anymore.

Photoshop :: How Much Of Canvas Size Is Too Much For Digital Painting

Jul 24, 2013

I was just wondering for photoshop how much pixelsfor canvas size everybody is used to using?
 
I use photoshop (previously 7, CS3 in office, recently upgraded to CC) to draw comic strips, and quite often I just keep expanding the canvas vertically as I draw more panels.Now, of course common sense would dictate that the larger the file the slower your photoshop gets. I just noticed today that one of my files is getting sluggish, and yup, the height has gotten to 14000 pixels. Better crop that thing before it gets to the point I can't even open the file anymore. So I was just wondering if there was any rule around as to how big a file can get before it's too big to operate on photoshp.

Photoshop :: Oil Painting Type Images From Digital Cam

Apr 14, 2006

I have an Orite C8020 Digital cam 8.0 Megapixel , the images from it kinda oil painted type

As you can see pixels look like kinda dsplaced if you zoom in .

It has two noticable settings

1. Exposure = (auto) and +1 + 2 +3 etc. and -1 -2 -3 etc

2. While Balance = (auto) ( daylight ) ( flourcent ) and one more I can't remember

Image quality is also set to fine

and resolution is on 1280 x something

I'm really disappointed by it's results like this. Is this the fault of camera ? or just the setting ?

Photoshop :: Organic Digital Painting "sphere"

Feb 21, 2007

here is a simple way to start practicing organic painting in photoshop using greyscale. I have used this same technique on all of my digital paintings.

1. Start with a medium grey as the background color. you can go to edit/fill/ then select 50% grey, or just double click the black brush color and select a grey halfway between the white and the black.

This will the the middle ground for the entire painting.

2. Take the elliptical marquee tool (the top left corner of the tool pallet.)
on your canvas hold shift and click and drag to make a perfect circle on the background.

Create a new layer and name it shadows.

Start to paint using a soft, 5% opacity brush around the bottom of the circle where the shadow would be if it were a sphere... start really light and work big. then as it gets darker work smaller and more detailed. i start with a brush size of around 125.
when your done it should look like this (it should not be totally black anywhere)

3. Create a new layer and name it highlights.

on this layer do the same as you did with the shadow but on the top side of the sphere using white. Add white where the light source would be hitting it . work large and work your way dont to smaller detailed areas (there should not be much detail with a sphere.)

4. Now after this is finished open a new layer and name it shadow and glow. you can add a shadow below the sphere. what i did was use the elliptical marquee tool to create an oval what would be the shadow of the sphere. after you paint the shadow, erase the part of the shadow that you can see over the sphere. ten ad a blur to it. you can use the gaussian blur and mess with the sliders untill you find one you like. the shadow must line up with the light source. for example if the light source is on the right side the shadow cannot be on the right side. once yo have the elliptical marquee selected fill it in with a 5% opacity brush untill it is dark enough to match the shadow on the lower side of the sphere.

also, some things you can do is add a bit of glow around the top of the sphere. this will be the light that is bouncing off the top. also add some highlight to the bottum of the sphere. this is where the light will bounce up from under the sphere . both of these highlights, or glows should be very subtle.

Photoshop :: 3D Texture Painting

Apr 22, 2013

I have a project open in a 3d view to paint on a 3d mesh. Everything is fine until I save, close, and reopen. When I open the file to resume I can no longer paint on the model. I can still go to the UV (flat) view for any of the materials on the model but I can't paint on the mesh in 3d view.
 
I can open a new 3d layer,  re-import the mesh, save and reapply all the previously painted texture to the new mesh layer and keep working but this seems not a very efficient work-flow.
 
I don't think many 3d pros actually use this piece of PS for texturing.This is the first time I've tried the 3d functionality of PS so I may just be overlooking something.

Photoshop :: Painting On Top Of Picture With CS6

Aug 20, 2013

I was painting on top of a picture I took, with the Art History brush one day adding an oil painting look to it (I was working on a new layer and not the layer with my photo on it), at end of the day I saved my work I had done so far and quit the program.  The next day, I went to continue my work.  When I loaded my work, added a new layer for a new section of the painting I wanted to do.  The Art History just painted in white instead of adding the oil painting effect I got the previous day.  I picked the same brush presets and the colors on my palette were set to the default colors (the way they were the day before). so that I can continue on with my painting?

Photoshop :: Re-painting A Vehicle

Feb 21, 2006

I have a new truck that I'm building and I've seen some places that have some kind of javascript that allows them to just select different colors for the vehicle. I however have no idea how to do this short of heading at it with a the paintbrush tool. I'd appreciate insight into this and if not is there a possibility that someone has a single color photo of a 96 s-10 pickup that I could use the paint bucket on.

Photoshop :: Best Tool For Painting

Dec 19, 2008

I am trying to paint in photoshop using a mouse and I realized that I can not make the mouse do what I wanted it to do. For example the mouse makes my brush strokes too jerky and I don't get smooth lines and the textures don't come out right either. Is the mouse a good tool for painting in photoshop or should I go with something else?

Photoshop :: Plugin For 3d Painting

Oct 13, 2008

I'm creating a 3d Avatar (human model) and getting tired of fixing seams when applying textures to my UV space. I HATE seams around the hairline, sides of shirt and pants, etc. Clean up can either be a pain or it looks bad.

I need a Photoshop plugin were you can paint in your UV areas and it will automatically "tile" your brush strokes so that there are no seams on your 3d model. Is there one out there?

Were you load up your UV layout in photoshop, define the UV areas and paint away without having to worry about seams when I apply it to my 3d model.

Is there such a plugin/script for Photoshop?

Photoshop :: Painting With Patterns

May 22, 2005

I'm trying to paint with a pattern I created but I'm having trouble doing so. I'm trying to follow the instructions in the photoshop manual but it almost seems as though they missed something (but it's probably me who's missing something). To create a pattern, it says to use the rectangle marquee tool to make a selection, setting feather to 0, choose edit -> define pattern, give it a name, and hit OK. So when I do that, nothing seems to happen after I hit OK. If I try to use the paint bucket tool, I still get the same monotonous color. How do I actually use the pattern I just created with the paint bucket tool?

Photoshop :: OPT? [HDR, Painting With Light]

I've been seeing 'OPT' (over processing technique) around flickr, but I still don't get how it really differs from HDR, or how to pull it off in photoshop. I'm already familiar with lucisart and photomatix (but not well versed with either), and neither seem to be able to pull it off.

Photoshop :: Brush For Oil Painting Look

Apr 8, 2009

I'm trying to create a oil painting feel to a project I'm doing.  Before I start I wanted to ask around first about the best brush to use, or a brush that I have to play around with the presets to create a good effect for the project.  Any tips for this type of look is welcomed.  As a reference point I'm using a jpg of planet Earth for this project if it helps out in describing the effect I might come out with.

Photoshop :: Spray Painting

Jul 16, 2005

I'm trying to learn how to spray paint my car for the concept car contest... I just tried spraypainting at 10% opacity and 45% flow.. It seem to be working, I'm able to build layers tones ok..?. Are there norm or standard setting to get the best out of the spraypaint tool? Maybe a brush setting something? Or a mode? Normal / screen something.

I'm sneaking up on this spraypaint stuff,.. but if somebody can head me in the right direction, I'll officially thank them in my acceptance speech..
