Learn how to draw realistic water droplets and understand how light behaves within a transparent object. For more on this lesson, visit thevirtualinstructor.com/how-t...
You have the best voice and instructions. Appreciate your explanations, I need the science to understand...you are the only one that delivers. Thank you so much!
thanks for explaining in depth how light refracts inside the water droplets. i need to learn about the shading of water for a tattoo design of canada, where inside the shape of canada is a bottle of grey goose. the bottle is open, and the little droplets are in the shape of the Arctic Archipelago (the scattered islands in the north). so because the droplets are in the shape of islands they are more misshapen than usual droplets, so it was very different to just copying an image of a globular droplet from the internet.
I've learnt a lot just from this video, thanks. However, can i just say, surely the cast shadow on the right hand sides, should actually be casting on the left hand side? I.e. the side away from the light source??
I used normal pencil instead of the one he was using I didn't make the white that much but great instead of shading pencil I used white color but still look real life
So I just have a question. What type of surface are you using? Is it in a sketch book or something like cardboard? This texture looks really fun to draw with and the darkness of it really makes the light pop.
question: how does the water droplet cast a shadow if it's transparent? wouldn't it just cast nothing? is it because the water isn't fully transparent?? im confused :((
I think the cast shadows should be on the opposite side of the light source or the light side so it should be on the left side on this case so WHY THE HELL IS IT ON THE RIGHT SIDEEE
this is good, but when he makes highlights with a Caran D'ache Luminance colored pencil, i tried with all other white colored pencils that I have, including Prismacolor, but none worked. Warning.
