I think I fell into a flow state watching you fall into a flow state. This was a really cool video, thank you for making these ❤
Thank you very much! Nice to hear our work relaxes you!
I recently got inspired to paint again after a long period of feeling burned out. So I bought some gouache and new brushes and tried to paint, it’s a lot harder than it looks though. But this video definitely helps fuel my desire to paint, so thank you!
Aaah, that's really nice to hear! Has painting helped calm your mind?
wow seeing it all come together in the final animation was so great! this was wonderful
Thanks so much!
Beautiful! This is the kind of style I aspire to achieve
Thanks! And best of luck. Do you have an instagram account or something where we can follow your progress?
Matte! Nande? Hi!, unfortunately not yet. I might make one later in the year :)
Keep us updated!
Love your videos, thanks for posting them.
Thanks for watching them and letting us know you love them!
It's nice, But I have a question:
How was the painter able to make the background and details, when they no longer can see the line art of the paper?
Thanks! The paint is transparant enough for the lines to stay visible while blocking out the painting, and then it's a combination of redrawing them / instinctively working out the shapes
What brush is it at 2.47 ? It's very nice to paint on small details !! love it !
Can anyone tell me what the TMK paper is made from? I haven't been able to find out any information on it.
Is that water you brushed over in the beginning?
Correct!
Hi, this is a very helpful tutorial as I'm considering buying poster paint to make backgrounds for my animations. I'm assuming that you took a photo of the background and uploaded it into animation software as a JPG or PNG file? I'm wondering how did you go about photographing the background itself? Did you use a particular lens for example? Like a macro lens or something like that? Any helpful information that you could kindly provide would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Brendan
Hi Segoviate, we scan in our backgrounds. Usually we import a PSD in compositing software, and combine it with the animation. We're using an Epson V600, since it got good reviews on scanning paintings, but you might want to research a more current scanner if you're interested in purchasing one. Cheers!
how long to wait for paper to soak water
This is bugging me so much...
HOW THE HELL CAN I MAKE MY BRUSH TIPS LIKE THAT?! I AM CERTAINLY AMAZED!!!
Thanks! First of all, to have the right brush is very important. Secondly I try not to use the new (sharp) brush for every single part, otherwise they will wear out too quickly. you can use older brushes for less detailed parts. In the near future we will make a video of which materials and tools we use. So stay tuned! :)
I'm looking forward to it!
@@MatteNande I am also very curious of the brushes you use. I've been all over Amazon.jp and still don't see anything like them. Are the Chinese calligraphy brushes? I have the TMK paper and Nicker paint and have been making great progress. But I am struggling witj detail brushes. Also that guided ruler is something else I cannot locate. These videos have been a greatly help, I can't thank you enough!
What is the name of that dowel you use with your ruler?
It is called mizobiki in Japanese.
Can I ask why animation studios tend to use gouache as a medium when it comes to painting the background art? Why aren't acrylics used for example? Is it something to with the "look" of gouache compared to acrylics and oils? Any helpful information would be great! Kind regards
I don't think any studio use gouache, acrylic, nor oils as their background because it is so expensive. Those are reserve only to painting as they have very good lightfast and pigment pop. Most studio (like Studio Ghibli) use pain called "Poster Colour" like in this video, where it is similar to gouache but cheaper and have more bang for your buck in term of the amount of paint, and it is forgiving if you make mistake.
@@CottonCookie Thanks very much for the helpful reply. I'm in the middle of purchasing some Nicker poster colors at the moment and I was wondering would fine grain cold pressed water color be okay to use with the paints? I've read that Studio Ghibli uses TMK poster paper but I can't get it in my country....
@@Brenners2010 Probably. I mean it just all about your budget and the purpose of your painting. I'm guessing you don't have a giant studio producing animation for you, so these paints are up to your choice. Just research more about different properties that these paints might offer and try them out.
Hey hey! Next to being expensive, oils take a long time to dry, so within an animation production it's not practical when you have to wait to put them on a scanner or put a cel over them. Acrylics have only been around since the 50s, so gouache and watercolors were already a standard in the animation industry by then. I don't think acrylics have much advantage over gouache, except that it's more opaque and can be applied to more surfaces than paper, which you don't really need in traditional animation. We like the poster colors personally, because their colors really pop brightly!
Hot pressed water color paper would be closer in texture to TMK paper, but it will probably take a few tries to know which brand works best with the paint
Gouache painting ?
Poster Colours - it's a paint very similar to gouache
