In part three of this series Jason designs three distinct villain characters: The Overlord, The Hunter, and The Deceiver. The real key, once again, is to help artists really think about the decisions they make while designing characters. Once a character is understood, the visual details can then be added to further enhance his or her identity. Shape language, psychology, and technique are all covered, helping the viewer to create the meanest and baddest baddies around. town. in a gown. with a crown. of great renown.

Oh man, i've never considered making a silhouette before drawing the sketch itself, that's actually a really great way to start off a drawing. Thanks for the tips guy

"Key thing about thumbnails is not to make them fast, but to make them readable." Learned that the hard way, and kinda blamed the client for not "understanding" my "vision".... Big "d'oh" moment for me, there.. Thank you, Jason!

By the looks of it, here he's drawing in grayscale, then creating an overlay layer on top and putting colours in that way, or just painting in a normal layer over the sketch in colour and mostly skipping the grayscale.

@troti14 The cursor/brush will follow the movements of the pen when you have it about 3/4 of an inche over the tablet. when the tip of pen touches the tablet it makes a mark.

i would guess that he has the opacity jitter enabled. this option gives him control of brushes opacity through pen pressure. less pressure, the less opaque paint/ink application will be and vise versa. you can find opacity jitter in the brushes palette under the "other dynamics" option ( Window>brushes)

Hello Jason Chan, are you using "BAMBOO (Pen & Touch)" to draw that AWESOME Villain character on your Photoshop? :D Its SUPER AWESOME dude! Like seriously i'm speechless right now Lol

@Artillory1 13 жыл бұрын

@SamHain1031666 It's not wrong that you use the pen tool to section off all the parts, but is definitely contributing to the length of time it takes to make your pieces. You seem to be approaching your finished illustrations the way a traditional airbrush artist might. It's accurate, but time consuming. Try loosen up your approach by not insisting on accuracy in the beginning. Go from generic shape to breaking down shapes into more and more details and just know when to stop. Not sure this helps

I don't understand your question lol >< do you mean is it also an illustration? Yea, I think we can say there are two types of designs - the obvious one with the whole silhouette of a character in a certain pose and the second one where a character is in action with a full background, fully polished,furbished and beautified.

This guy was fuckin sick and he is the best illustrator, concept artist and character designer what ive ever seen! If marko dont wanna create new DVD maybe you have other sick master designer who can create something awesome with pencil?
