tips for RENDERING Digital Art (coloring & shading tutorial) 

4:15 This is a common misconception I see in a lot of art instruction. The shadow color temperature is determined by the color of the ambient light. It's not always just the opposite temperature of the direct light. Ambient light mostly takes on the color of the object it is reflecting off of, so a warm light illuminating a room with warm-colored objects will produce warm shadows as well. The reason the misconception is so prevalent is because the most common form of lighting is natural outdoors light. In that situation the direct light from the sun is warm, but the ambient light comes from the sky which in common painting settings is around noon when the sky is blue. That said, it's common to do warm light/cool shadow just because it makes for visually appealing contrast.

This muffet drawing took me back years to my childhood

As a traditional artist who has been dabbling in digital art for years and never understanding how the heck to actually get it to look good, this was amazingly helpful. I’d been trying to do everything just by painting it regularly without utilising the features that make digital art so cool like you’ve shown here. Thank you!

rendering saves lives

The very first tip about the saturation for base colors is genius!!! I usually do that be default, but I wasn't completely aware of why!

“This process takes a lot of time and patience” Ah, explains why my drawings suck! I have zero patience 😅

THANK YOU Ive been drawing for like 4 years and my colors are always baddd but no one ever told me Flats should be the same saturation??? Thank you that literally made it all make sense

this is the 1st vid that actually explained the "add the details" part , thank you so much i learned alot 💜

in all honesty, you being a self-taught artist and not really using the right terms made this easier to understand so i, as a school taught artist taught using the real terms and all the confusing stuff, found this super entertaining and simple to follow and take note of. thank you for that🙂

EVERYTHING WITH ONE BRUSH?!OMG. But honestly, I love how you explained everything so clearly. I feel like I have a better idea on how to proceed now. Thank you❤

I love watching artists explain their process, it gives me inspiration to draw lol I love your art style it’s really beautiful !!!

Very helpful! I've been drawing for years and while I have slowly improved I get to points where I'm like "I could really make it pop more", seems I add more realism each time. Thank you so much!

This was so helpful! Thankyou I ALSO LOVE THE COOKIES DRAWINGS FROM CRK THEY ARE AMAZING

I love your style and your way of recording and simplifying things in your videos, very Angel Ganev style, another genius... I really have problems generating dynamic poses and clothing details for my character... I don't know how I see but I don't I know how to apply them and the character is not static. If you can make a video about that, it would be great!! Greetings from Argentina keep it up!!

You are way too underrated i love your art!!!❤

imagine being this pretty and this talented!! im trying to be like you girl!

This tutorial helped me more than most advanced guides! The way you explained it in terms I can actually understand helped a lot! Thank you!!!

excellent tutorial ! i appreciated you mentioned the difference between 2d and 3d shading!

its always so cool seeing the different ways artists render !

No I love how simple your explanations are, I think I use a similar process to yours but I think I've been missing out on smaller shadows. Definitely use clipping masks, have been using them for years for shadows and highlights, they are a lifesaver. A lot of my recent art is more of cell shading too because I've been arting for a long time and I've gotten lazy over the years xD your tutorial is fantastic, A+

This is actually really helpful. Most videos just mention rendering but don’t go into detail and I’m stuck there like: what the heck even is rendering? What does that mean?!

Your art is goals! I want a stylized art style with both soft and cel shading. I always have great ideas for drawings, but they never come out good because I kinda suck! This video did help, tyy

thanks for explaining your rendering process!! I've been drawing digitally for some time but still figuring out my own rendering process so this is really helpful!!!

Thank you! This was so helpful, i've only been doing traditional art and every time i try digital art i question my skills but this tutorial really helped me understand the concept of rendering and colors a lot better!

Абалдеть, случайно наткнулась на это видео, стало интересно посмотреть и, правда, видео получилось очень информативным! А ваши арты такие вкусные, что бегом побежала искать соц сети😁

I never comment on art tutorials, but this has to be the most useful rendering tutorial I’ve ever seen. (A lot) I just found your channel, I’m so glad I watched that one RU-vid short that popped up on my recommended lol!

This was the most comprehensive video that I have seen on rendering, and I want to thank you so very much for it! You explained it perfectly, and I know that everybody renders differently, but this is at least a great base. Keep the videos coming, PLEASE! 😅 Can we get some drawing tuts for features (ex. Eyes, lips, hair, noses, etc) too? That would be a great help! Can you tell us how you got into drawing? What drove you to self teach yourself and persevere through the beginning stages of drawing? What are your favorite things to draw? Have you ever considered making a Webtoon? I would love to see your OC’s in different situations. ❤

HELLOOOOO? THIS WAS AN AMAZING VIDEO I LOVE HOW YOU ACTUALLY EXPLAIN DETAIL BY DETAIL AND SHOW. JUST SUBSCRIBED 😭❤️

2:44 GIRLLL FR. I WAS JUST LOOKING AT YOUR MAKEUP AND THINKING THAT. YOURE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT

this was super helpful, I feel like no matter how many times I hear it, I always forget just how important contrast is in composition and rendering whether it's contrast in value or saturation.

Hello there! First of all, I love your art style! Second of all, as someone that has pretty much never rendered any of her drawings (I've always preferred cel shading) and wanted to start changing the shading style, I found this video really really helpful! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience ^^

I love how you explain things and your art is absolutely beautiful. Color and rendering were always a big challenge for me, I learned so much from this, so, THANK YOU so much!

пока не увидела название канала, даже не поняла, что вы русская. речь понятная, вас приятно слушать. вы очень крута, крыжовник!!!😈

Just found my new fav artist

thank you so much for posting this despite the hesitance, I'm sure this'll help a lot of others as well as myself ^^

i remember when u only had 1k subs!! ur art is amazing keep it up

we have a very similar style of rendering, so this video really helps me a lot! i know i can take what i've learned to bring my art to the next level, and it's also nice to know that someone thinks in the same way i do. i hope to one day be as close in skill level as you are!!!!

I always forget a bounce light. This has been super helpful.

This is such a compelling explanation. Thank you so much for making this video on rendering, it made me understand some things a little better. Btw, your style is very pretty ✨

Thankyou so much for posting this video! You are so helpful and I know you're definitely going somewhere with so much talent :))

This is the best tutorial I have seen this helped me so mush especially since I just started digital art this year ❤

This is the first video I watch from u and immediately I got hooked, I really enjoyed the way u explained everything 😊

Im still learning how to color and draw so to me this is amazing

COOKIE RUN MENTIONED?! omg i love ur channel already, subscribed!

how this is amazing im a self thought artist as well and this video showed me many ways I can make my life easier, I usually shader on a layer above the flats but I always mix all the shadows and it makes it so hard!!. thinking about separating them from big shadows to little ones makes so much sense and that way I can actually get a smooth result on the skin!! so thank you. im gonna binge watch all ur videos specially the hair one u mentioned. this will help me improve my art to a different level. thank you so much!

Omg thank u! My colours have always looked off, I’ve never considered the saturation needs to be harmonious.

Your style is soo clean and full of life! I've been struggling with my style, watching your video definitely inspired me 💞

Amazing video! First time I understood rendering, and hurray I can use the airbrush now 😂 so many artist said never use it

i think im gonna start rendering my art now!! i only do it sometimes but now that i have a simplified tutorial i can learn how to do it more professionally 🤭🤭

Tysm for this video!! This was super helpful right when I want to challenge myself on doing more detailed artwork, and your voice is super soft and relaxing 💖💞💞

Thank you for the tips I am def needing to familiarize myself with rendering. Also wanted to say having your mic clipped to a plush frog is brilliant, props 😂🐸

7:40 on me that is REALLY PRONOUNCED

+1 because you made a Muffet masterpiece.

I love your art! I still believe that you are insanely underrated! At what point did you start taking art seriously and get to where you are now? I hope to one day be able to make art like you ❤

All I want to know is how to color and fold clothes. It's like a dream. Your drawing is very wonderful. Keep it up🍒🍒

Oh my gosh! I took a long break bc I was sick and I was like, I wanna come look at my favorite artist and you’ve grown so much! This is so amazing! Congratulations 🎉

Yayaaaaaa our prayers have been answered!!!❤❤❤❤❤
