Here's the promised speedpainting tutorial!

Thank you for this! l'm a total beginner and l feel lost every time to try to start painting something. l have a feeling l'm trying to do too advanced things instead of taking it slow and easy and not investing 20 hours in a painting that won't look great anyway. This was a good tutorial and it gave me some perspective over how l should approach painting for now. Again, thanks

this is the best painting tutorial I've ever seen so far. Since I am having problems with using photoshop I found it super useful. Thanks to you for making this! It's fast, not annoying, fun to watch, easy to repeat and get back if you missed something. So much better then just watching videos. Again, thank you so much for what you did. It really helped me to understand!Β Β Β Β

Thank you for making this and sharing your technique. I must confess that I am guilty of paying too much attention to detail and am working to get out of the habit (especially for backgrounds).

This was a while ago, but your tutorial helped me immensely with the background here: matildarose.deviantart.com/art⦠You broke it down in a way I could understand, and I've often shared this tutorial with others struggling with landscapes.

Oh wauw, I love this tutorial!
I've been wanting to teach myself to draw better backgrounds for ages, but I always work too much in detail and I don't have time for that.
Can't wait to try this.^^

21 minutes! it usually takes me like 3 hours! that's amazing! this really helped thank u!
also, could u do something like this but with paint.sai?
i don't have photoshop cuz it costs like a bigillion dollars
π: 0 β©: 0
wait, you did that in 21 minuts? i don't belive you that!
that image looks so great and while i watched that i was like ''but i don't want to spend 8 houers on a background, i don't have theΒ patience for 8 houers, only for 3 houers to sit on a drawing'' and you made that in 21 minuts?

This is incredibly helpful. I always focus on a tiny spot way too much and it turns out crap, so I'll definitely try this out. Thanks for sharing!Β
And your art style is really cool btw

This is really wonderfull, thank you for the tutorial!

I'm having trouble making my speedpaint look clear and not super fuzzy edged. It might just be my brushes, but what is the main brush you use besides the texture brushes?
π: 0 β©: 0
... Could you make a version of this tutorial for Paint.net?
Photoshop costs like, a thousand dollars, which a thousand more than I have, and Paint.net doesn't have these oddly-shaped brushes you're using.

Oh boy do I ever have a surprise for you!Β
A little while ago, adobe released Photoshop CS2 completely free! This is because it's a little outdated compared to the newer ones, but it's photoshop nonetheless!Β
You can get instructions on how to download it here!Β www.redmondpie.com/download-adβ¦
You'll have to make an adobe account, but that's not much of a sacrifice since you'll be getting CS2 for free!
And I hope I don't sound like one of those automated virus thingies cause I swear I'm not and that i'm serious omg ;v;

Wow.
Thanks a lot. Though, what exactly do you mean by outdated? What changed in the newer ones?
π: 0 β©: 1
I just mean outdated as in it's an older program \ ( o v o ) /
It still functions perfectly fine and you can use it for a lot of stuff (it even has an animation window so you can make animations, which personally I loved and still love)! I mostly meant outdated as in it'll lack some features that newer versions will have!
I've never really played around with newer versions so I can't say exactly what's been added/changed ;v;
Overall it still works great though!

If you say so. Thanks again!

This tutorial was great. I always hoped to have more confidence in my backgrounds and now I'm positive that with a little speed painting, I can make me mind go wild with backgrounds! Thanks

welp, watching this just made me feel bad about myself XD no amount of practice could ever get me to anything close to that level. just doesnt seem like a possibility for me. good job though, im sure this helped some people with more ability.
π: 0 β©: 1
Don't feel bad. I might not be a pro, but I know that once you keep practicing and groove to your own pace; it might not be soon, but you will be able to scratch the canvas quite mightier than the gods themselves. And if your skills aren't at a professional level with a certain amount of practice, it is still guaranteed that you will have a smile on your face once you compare your skills by then and now.
Hope you dig this "inspirational", non-cliched speech that I didn't find off Google. ...please don't check.

eh, im still pretty terrible, and to be honest I dont actually have fun making art XD
π: 0 β©: 1
well if you don't actually like making art and don't want to then you've got to decide whether you want to continue, but i know from experience and from observation that if you keep practicing you WILL get better. This isn't a probably and i'm not lying, i can guarantee you that if you keep drawing you will improve, while if you stop you definitely won't. I can honestly say with 100% certainty that if you keep drawing you'll get better, it literally isn't a choice it is a fact, if you keep drawing you will improve

Thanks so much for that great tutorial!
I want to start practicing speed paintings, because I love that style and you really helped me with understanding how this actually works!
But I have a question though. How much opacity and flow do you use with your brushes? Do you start with 100% each and turn it lower from layer to layer? Or do you just feel like changing it from time to time?

I love looking at speedpaints and this looks super nice and helpful!!
I wish there were as good brushes in paint tool sai, because it feels hard to paint things like leaves as in this tutorial when painting in sai ;;Β
maybe I should just use photoshop more haha

Woah, this was absolutely helpful, inspiring and interesting! I'm going to try it very soon! Thank you!

This was so helpful! Not too long either. Before seeing this I was't sure of what I wanted to do with art honestly. Now I realize, it doesn't matter. Set a basic goal and work at that. Just draw or paint because it feels good--I now understand.Β
I'm a beginner, but with good advice like what you've presented and an honest effort, I'll gain experience in no time.
