I've watched a few cloud tutorials today and this is by far the best one. I appreciate you explaining your thought process instead of just painting random scribbles and expecting the viewer to be able to follow, like the other "tutorials". Thank you sir!
Finally getting around to watching this tutorial and its been extremely helpful to at least be able to understand the things I've been applying to my paintings. The final picture in the end is gorgeous, but if I had any suggestions for further tutorials I'd love to see one on rendering water and oceans.
I loved the way you deconstructed these clouds into basic shapes. Much better than someone showing you how they paint clouds. Actually showing someone how to study clouds and light. Great tutorial!
thanks, your approach to the subject really helped me out, and made me realize I was complicating myself, making the newbie mistake to go too fast for details instead of constructing a solid base with basic shapes I could deconstruct after ;3
Hello! I know this tutorial is quite a bit older now, but it's still the best cloud lesson out there 🙏Thank you!! I followed along, and did get a bit stuck on theory- at around 6:30 , when you add warm grey to the shadow side 'from the atmosphere' - what does that mean? It doesn't seem you are reflecting the more saturated sky, since that would be more blue?? and I am also not clear why the fill light is darker than the terminator shadow. I'm not understanding the logic to be able to apply it with intention, but I DEF find without that warmer grey you add, my colors are MUCH worse. If you have time for clarification, I'd be very grateful!
I watched Till The end ,And Different skill improves in my Brain I use my concepts When I grow up I want to make Concept Design and animation, Its useful to me, Thanks!🌟
Thank you for this excellent demonstration! I draw way too little, and do it with pixels on old formats like for Commodore 64 or Amiga, but know just too little of real painting and demos like this are always such eye-openers. Like: I see all of this, but didn’t reach those conclusions you reached. Valuable lesson!
Wow! Clouds are harder than I thought! It took me a whole day on Krita to form one block and I tried lots of brush settings and tricks but still looked like half the process of your finished result.
very nice breakdown. Just stumbled across your sentence that you have a few years sculpting with clay as a background which makes understanding form easier. I would suggest to start modelling in 3D as another way to learn more about forms and get a feel for it. With Blender and tons of Tutorials its very easy to get into that. You dont have to be a Master and get hired by Pixar, just try it and Model and Sculpt something there. It will help, i can tell from experience.
This is very interesting. My big struggle is to achieve this with cross hatching. I've looked at hundreds of samples of other artists but never felt really comfortable drawing clouds.
if you hatch it may be hard to go below a certain value. and clouds mostly are very bright. if you then insist on cross hatching you maybe cant help to overshoot the value. maybe that is the reason why it doesnt work as well
Brandon Le it’s hard to organize and keep track of the content, on my end too. Sometimes I need to find a video and TH-cam just won’t display them all. So I have to go into the TH-cam studio and it gets tedious
I'm not sure if you can cover this or not. But sometimes I see very small, sparse and thin clouds in the sky. They are a bit hard for me because I feel like I can't always show distance decently while I want to give the sky some interest without populating it too much with big clouds. Anyway thanks for the video man! Really awesome instruction! Keep it up!
Kinda looks like snow to me, it's white and soft and outside, picking up all the light informations from the environment For a part 2 I'd like to see clouds depending on time of day !
Hi Tyler. Great Video. A little off topic, I notice that your brush panels has the brush rotating widget and the hard-shoft edge slider. Was that part of the photoshop version you were using or how can you get that?
@@TylerEdlin84 Thank you for the feedback. Been looking into it and figured out you get it be right-clicking while having the brush tool selected. Thanks again.
Hi! First things first, you ROCK!!!!! thank you for these videos man. I would like to hear about how they light affects multiple clouds, egg.: if there are a few clouds lined up against a source light how would the light change and affect them. Would the cloud's inside absorb or reflect the light? Would it create some sort of "caustic" patterns of light and shadow on the other clouds? thanx in advance man!
Thats so cool man. Would be great if you could explain how the colors work on the cloud at different times of the day. (also may be a water and waves demo later...).. ❤️
Hope this doesn't come too late, but you need to use a really soft brush and soften some of the edges. The thinner parts should have some transparency and have some of the blue sky show through.
well color and reference are very different unless you are referencing color. i use reference if i dont know what something looks like, so to understand a subject. and secondly to get ideas and inspiration. i have older episodes talking about this, how do you use it?

@Oyou what
I loved the way you deconstructed these clouds into basic shapes. Much better than someone showing you how they paint clouds. Actually showing someone how to study clouds and light. Great tutorial!
This is possibly the best cloud tutorial I’ve ever seen. Thank you!
Jaymes O’Possum thanks for watching
Absolutely 👍🏽
Good tutorial. For part 2 you should cover subsurface scattering, and how that would make the shadow side lighter.
didnt even think of that, thats more advanced ill have to mention it in a part 2 or 3. thanks for the idea
No worries, thanks for making great videos
Thank you, well thought and informative. I love how you explained the analysis involved rather than blindly copying.
thanks, your approach to the subject really helped me out, and made me realize I was complicating myself, making the newbie mistake to go too fast for details instead of constructing a solid base with basic shapes I could deconstruct after ;3
My mind is blown by all of this. There is so much information i didn't know
One of the best cloud tutorials. Thank you for this.
This is the best lesson I’ve seen. Thank you so much I’ve been having trouble with clouds for so long and you’ve just made me finally get it! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Estelle Monaghan thanks, if you are new to my channel def. check out some newer video lessons too!
Tyler Edlin I sure will. Thank you again you’re a star 🌟

Oop google science said: density + subsurface light scatter. I will try to use that to figure it out!
Thank you again for this magnificent channel!
This is so clearly put and the examples are intuitive and beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing!

Your aproach on painting are super cool 😭👌👌 thankyou so much
can you do one on rendering the water, what you have done is so pretty!

Amazing! Always been struggling with clouds.
Me. Too
@@koolnsj me too
clouds with dramatic lighting. wispy clouds and storm clouds
would be appreciated
thanks for the wonderful video

this is epic cloud tutorial
Brilliant! This is the best! Thank you. This opens up the world of sky for me.
Thanks so much for sharing this! I've always been struggling with painting clouds, now I think I understand it more :D thank you!!!

Great vid. Thanks. Please show how you did the water on a different vid.
i just used a photo and painted a few brush strokes on it
this so cool how did i ever miss this tutorial!!

Thanks for explanation. Subbed
thank you so much ! I just find your channel is great !
Xiaoyun Zhang thanks for viewing yeah look around including waay waay back there’s a lot of content

WOAH these clouds are juicy man!! looks great
Very informative.. Thank you so much
I'm curios on how did you make the perspective grid, if you still answer question pls
@@mlem3541 I just drew em, I have a video online on the channel
amazing tutorial. thank you
i have a qestion, how did you creat your brush or from where did you bring those bushes ? and how it's cost to buy or create all of them ?..
Hi Tyler. Great Video. A little off topic, I notice that your brush panels has the brush rotating widget and the hard-shoft edge slider. Was that part of the photoshop version you were using or how can you get that?
Yeah it’s been in all the versions I’ve been using for years by default
@@TylerEdlin84 Thank you for the feedback. Been looking into it and figured out you get it be right-clicking while having the brush tool selected. Thanks again.
Cool! :D I struggle to fit clouds into an interesting composition to be honest
Amazing video, but why is there a camera sound at 12:18 ? xD
you know i have been asking myself the same thing, i must have hit the screenshot button accidentally on my keyboard when recording audio
thank you 4 the great job
amazing!

thanx in advance man!
how do you categorize your brushes?
I struggle with drawings rocks and land on a flat perspective ( the details!? What details? Shadows? Color...??? Pebbals???) :/
Draw clouds with cubes : aight i gotta use Minecraft soundtrack in this one
On god magic puffy mountain pretty cool
Puffy clouds :)
Thank you
Thats so cool man. Would be great if you could explain how the colors work on the cloud at different times of the day. (also may be a water and waves demo later...).. ❤️
very nice video
New intro? Looks great!! Also great video :D
thanks!
what did you use to get the perspective lines
Him :this Boring water ,me : OMGASH HOW DID U DO IT
Just tossed a photo of water in there
Thank U bro
u r the best
Id like to know how to make the clouds look "non-solid" and cloudified on top of having solid shapes.
Hope this doesn't come too late, but you need to use a really soft brush and soften some of the edges. The thinner parts should have some transparency and have some of the blue sky show through.
what was that book you were flipping through in the beginning?
Moe a painting book by ray balkwill
easiest subscribe of my life.
Please can u make a tutorial on how to paint water?? 😍
海の描き方も教えてください
Can I get those x brush you used? Please...
ray farandy its the basic photoshop airbrush I believe it just displays like that in the recording. These brushes I downloaded from Jeremy fenske
I still dont quite understand how to create that wispiness that clouds have
I m struggling Approach color and how I use reference for my art work I hope you like my question and make tutorial . thanks
well color and reference are very different unless you are referencing color. i use reference if i dont know what something looks like, so to understand a subject. and secondly to get ideas and inspiration. i have older episodes talking about this, how do you use it?
Thank you
Him: If you can paint a cube you can paint a cloud.
Me: ;-;
what brush did you use?
the round brush it comes with photoshop
@@TylerEdlin84 Hey man, just stumbled on your video. Where did you get that perspective brush you used at the start?
Ventus I have a video just a few before this called the most important two perspective. Brushes watch that
@@TylerEdlin84 Thanks for the reply mate! Great video btw. Very helpful!
Tyler: let me just timelapse this boring water
Tyler: *draws amazing water
me: :O
Lucky Bolt was just a photo I dropped in
@@TylerEdlin84 xD
