Description Wow... huge file is huge. Put this together a few days ago, submitted to my tumblr but forgot to submit it here. This is usually how I do a digital painting. Hope you find this somewhat useful!

Walk through that I promised of this picture: [link]

Here's my tumblr where I post a lot of things I never post on dA or fA.

I'm going to refrain from typing too much because of joint pains now

huhg, its really interesting seeing how you paint. Thats for certain. I usually put down the general kind of colours that i think I'll be using my my background, and then do the character and then finished up the background. Funny how everyone has their preferences on what method they use.

I'm currently completely obsessed with backgrounds :\ and usually I only do the background first when I'm not to sure how I should do the subject. I usually do it the way you mentioned as well!

For real? I've been attempting backgrounds on and off, but yeah, they never come out how I want and I just don't have the patience for them So I seriously admire your background abilities

Syphellium In reply to Amadoodles [2011-07-14 11:02:35 +0000 UTC]

You really really just need to sit down and do them I actually like doing backgrounds (sometimes they are just easier for me then the actual character) so I don't really have experience on how to deal with those problems, sorry! But I do experience patience issues with many other things, usually you have to find a part of them you really like doing! Focus on that part and soon you'll grow to like the whole background process. Like I like going crazy with the base tones of grass, so I force myself to do everything else AND the base tones of grass. Hope this helps... in some way.

oooh i like your methods. I like to do the character first and then the background and then edit the shading. . . cause i dont like to do backgrounds I only did the background first like...once or twice. But it was okay...i didnt see a huge difference

Syphellium In reply to InfinitePocky [2011-07-13 12:42:08 +0000 UTC]

I used to do that, but recently for full paintings I dunno I feel as if the backgrounds are 'easier'. Lol cuz it's basically repeating the same steps over and over again (this is why I like grass so much!) so I don't have to plan what to do D: I'm so lazy lol
