Hey guys 👋 I should’ve mentioned this in the video, my bad. Just wanted to credit Likelihood Art as I was HEAVILY inspired by one of her pieces of work when creating the dude in the thumbnail. She’s an amazing artist and you should go give her a follow if you don’t already❤️

NO CUS I SAW THE THUMBNAIL AND IMMEDIATELY WAS LIKE LIKELIHOOD 🥸
right i thought it was her
This video was super helpful, I was actually quite shocked when I clicked on it and saw the ridiculously low amount of likes and views! Thank you for this though, fingers crossed you'll blow up because you'd deserve it! Great video
Thanks! I really appreciate it. Glad to hear you found it helpful 😊
reallll this deserves more attention
Thanks! :)
But what if i want the skin to suck? I mean suck. What?
After watching hundreds of skin painting tutorials, I have to say, this one is by far the most helpful. This channel’s going somewhere 😭
Thank you so much ☺️
2:13 looks like the way i color most of my OC's though most of them are either suffering for various mental illnesses, are junkies or are chronically tired. So it checks out. Anywho thank you for the thorough tutorial
Yeah it definitely works for those types of characters! You’re most welcome and thanks for watching 🖤
This video was is so useful. You just summarized everything you need to know about painting skin in one simple video by actually explaining how to paint any skin in any style, not just showing us how YOU do it without telling us about the reasons for the brush strokes you put.
Tysm for this video, i can't believe how i missed channel till now❤
Thank you! I’m happy to hear you found it useful. I did my best to include the most important information 😊
WOW the algorithm is at work! Bc I was just finishing a sketch and feeling kinda :/ about how it looked(sketches don’t need to be perfect but I’m dumb and a perfectionist) and I was like “okay well I know what to practice more on” AND THEN I OPEN TH-cam TO SEE THIS VIDEO NICELY EXPLAINING EVERYTHING I NEEDED HELP WITH😭 instant subscriber fr
Happy to hear the algorithm served you up my video! Haha yeah I’m a bit of a perfectionist too, it can be a real pain sometimes! Thanks so much for the sub 😁
oh my god i finally have a googleable name for the asaro head! i love those things, but didn't know what they were called lmao.
I almost screamed when you talked about edge control. A LOT of people jump this and it's one of my main issues. Also what kind of brush do you use on edges, Idk if it's me but when I use my soft brush it's not a stable, my pressure makes it have some darker spots. Still getting the hang of it
I usually just use one of the default hard round brushes that come with photoshop. Then if I want to smooth things up a bit I use a soft round brush that has a bit of a grainy texture. You’ll start to get use to it eventually, just keep at it 😊
Also for the heads/planes it’s paid for the extra stuff but customizable is head model studios.
I loved this video over time I’ve gotten better at sketches but I still can’t color for anything and this video helped so so much
Will have to check it out, thanks!
The thumbnail gave me a jump scare, that anya face used to be my old pfp and it freaked me out, I SWEAR I'VE NEVER SAID ANYTHING MEAN ABOUT THIS GUY😭😭😭
😂
Okay but this is prob one of the best videos I've ever seen on painting skin. Thank you for making it for us!!
Glad you liked it!
This fundamentally broke my mind and has honestly been the most helpful video for art that I've ever watched
I’m happy to hear you’ve found it helpful!
So art has never been my thing, and I never cared about it. But this year, since I was really unproductive, I decided to do something with my life and try to gain the skill. My main goal is to draw decent stylized people digitally. I started with animals, and although I improved quickly, I swiftly hit a wall which I just couldn't get past. So I braved it and started drawing humans, I even bought Procreate for maximum results.
And.. I'm improving again! Results are a little slow but there's definitely some learning going on, and I'm happy wifh my progress. I'm undoubtably still a beginner, but I try to draw daily. Your viddos have been extremely helpful because they inspire me and make me think "hey, maybe if I practice enough, I can get to that guy's level".
I'm surprised you're not more popular. Thanks for the opportunity and inspiration. And if you have any words of advice for a beginner, shoot!
It’s great to hear you’ve taken an interest in art! Having something to focus some of your time and energy on every day, working towards being a little bit better at each day can give you a great sense of purpose and achievement.
As far as advice is concerned:
Be patient with yourself. Progress won’t be constant, there will be slow periods.
Focus on enjoying the process of learning.
Avoid constantly comparing yourself to others. You can use other people’s work as something to strive towards but don’t allow yourself to become upset because you’re not at their level yet.
Draw things because you have a genuine interest in them, not because you feel like you have to.
And finally, I’d say the most important thing of all is to just maintain a positive, chill attitude. Don’t be overly attached to your work, at the end of the day it’s about having an enjoyable experience drawing ✍️
@@digitalmagician Hey, thanks so much for the advice. I'll definitely keep them in mind.
Best of luck!
One of the first videos that actually teach you HOW and not just repeating the steps the artist does, thank you so much for this wonderful video
Gained a sub
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the sub!
Ok but WHY IS THIS DRAWING SO ⚡️🧎🏻🧎🏻🧎🏻🧎🏻🧎🏻🧎🏻🧎🏻⚡️???
omgg the soul eater music ❤❤
❤️
Clicked this for the dude but stayed for the tutorial
this was so so helpful, thank you! could you also do a tutorial for dark skin tones too? 💗
it was already tutorial for dark skin :] it aplies to all types
@@louzo5175 um, not necessarily… it would be easier to follow the tutorial if he also applied this to dark skin tones and showed the process!
The info in this video can be applied to dark skin tones also but yes I’ll definitely be making vids in the future that go into further detail and demonstration of painting dark skin tones so stay tuned for that 😊
@@digitalmagician thank you so much!
My first time seeing your channel and I already feel like I learned so much. I love how you give instructions that are easy to understand. You got a new subscriber 💜
I’m happy to hear you’ve found it useful! Thanks for the Sub ❤️
This was a seriously great tutorial, thank you for the help!
Thank you! Glad it helped :)
Yoo thanks for the super helpful tips! May the algorithm get you the attention you deserve.
Thank you! 😁
your style is so beautiful and this guide was really helpful! such an underrated channel :0
Thank you so much!!
eyy just a reminder to beginner artists (expanding on the vid's point of speed): everyone's pace differs. you're not a bad artist because it took you 5 days or more to finish your artwork. speed is not the sole determinator that you're a pro artist either, there's a lot of other factors involved there (years of practise, solid muscle memory & mastery of fundamentals, honed eye for personal aesthetics etc). a complete beginner can finish a weird looking doodle in 5 secs and a pro can make a minimalist doodle just as fast, but the speed isn't the point. it's the result, and the journey it took you there.
take your time, learn to have fun & experiment with parts of the process
Thanks for this video, it remind me of how much my art improved since I got a better understanding of the planes of the face and the color map of the face and that's something I wish I knew back then when I started in digital art a few years ago
Yeah, Learning the planes of the face and the colour zones is a real game changer 👍
Wow! 🎉❤ thank you !!!
what a coincidence, i really needed a shading tutorial with this style because i've been wanting to change my shading style. this was helpful, thank you!
Glad I could help!
dude this was so helpful! you deserve way more subs
Thank you!
I really liked the light skin with the x ...i thought it was interesting and dramatic
Yeah I could see it being used for dramatic purposes :)
Love the soul eater background music🫶
❤️
This was very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the helpful video. You have a really nice art style! Definitely looking forward to learn more from you, I’ll be on the lookout for your content
Thank you! :)
This was quite useful! I often have trouble with colour, especially when painting skin. I’ll have have to start implementing some of these tips into my art
Glad you found it useful! Yep skin definitely is one of the most challenging things to paint. But as long as you stick with it, it starts to get a bit easier 😁
Thank you broo❤❤❤
Welcome ❤️
thank you so much, this was very helpful ❤!!
Glad it was helpful! ❤️
I hope u receive more recognition in the future, you're such a great artist and ur vids are so helpful, nicely edited and organized!
Thank you so much!
simple & straightforward video with great explanation! new sub :) loved the gifs also
Thanks so much! :)
Every time I draw anything ever, I have to fight the urge to over render. I see a hard edge, and I want to get rid of it so badly. It's such a problem. I'm fighting with myself every time I draw.
Yeah I struggle with the temptation too haha
Really helps a lot, thanks dude
Glad it helped!
Yo I just found you and this video and all your other videos are insane! Love your work!
Thank you! I appreciate it :)
This is so helpful!
Thank you! :)
Glad it was helpful! :)
Just liked and subscribed thanks for this!
Awesome, thank you!
Very helpful, not only were your explanations clear, but you also gave vivid demonstrations. Also, does color zone change for darker skin colors
Colour zones in the face are essentially the same. The only difference is that with really dark skin the colour zones will be a little bit more subtle.
😭 Bro just made a different in my art and helped me understand everything in a 9: 07 video
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for this video it helped me very much😢😢 new subscriber❤❤
Glad it helped you! Thanks for subbing! ❤️
OMG i was searching for a video like this for such a long time, i always liked this kind of art style but didn't how to render the skin in a way that actually fit the art style
Glad I could help!
This has been super helpful!! I'm excited to try this out thank you :3
(I also love the soul eater soundtrack hehe)
Glad I could help! Was waiting to see if anyone would recognise the music haha
Very useful :)
Glad you think so! :)
Mmm now that’s some good colors
This was super helpful omg!! idk if you'll see this but I have a huge problem deciding where to place my colors and shading :((
Didn't have to call me out like that, bro
awesome tut! I aspire to be as good as likeli shes so good
Thank you!
This was such a good and concise tutorial on painting skin.
Will you do a tutorial on painting hair? I ADORE the way it looks in this video
Will definitely do a tutorial on hair at some point 😊
2:32
Ngl kinda like the first one aesthetically
The one on the top right looks perfect for a rainy, gloomy day though. At least to me 🤣
Anyway thank you for this video, it's just what I needed!
Yeah fair point! I could see it being appropriate in that instance 😊
i've been drawing for years but always struggled with dimension and my characters looking too flat. I think this just fixed me.
Glad to hear it!
Is it possible for you to go more into how you render and how you use your brushes to do so?
I’ll make a video on that at some point 👍
ngl i have a weak eyesight and the green thingy on ur thumbnail made it look like it says "pakistan" to me lol, i was like dude what?? cool vid btw keep up the good work fellow artist
Haha yeah I can see how it could be mistaken as Pakistan, if I look at it from a distance I can kinda see it😂 Thank you, I’ll do my best!
this was super helpful!! i look forward into using it in the future. (keyword: future..)
Glad it was helpful!
actually learned a fuck ton from this thanks
No worries
Is it just me or does his style kinda look like LikelihoodArts? I like it tho!
it does, likeli has an art piece on twitter that looks LITERALLY like this one here
Love her work!
🇧🇷I thought your style was beautiful, one day I'll reach that level 😎💕
Thank you! I’m sure you will 😊💕
3:47 vsauce Michael here, your shading is really good. or is it
Haha 😂
Thx a lot bro! This really helped. I am gonna be doing a video about learning to draw better faces in 7 days and I will definitely watch this video again when learning that. I also gave u a like and a sub, much much more people should know about you😁
Good luck on your video! Thanks for the sub, I appreciate it 😁
I think i just like less realistic shading but that might change in a few years
Yeah everyone’s got different tastes :)
bro got that vsauce music
😂
Here’s a warm up example for y’all; lips tamarind, & skin mocha.
Enjoy :3
Need you to know that Michael Cera's CeraVe commercial is on this video.... it showed up on the last example that looked like it needed some moisturizing SDHOIHSDOIHSD
Haha that’s too perfect 😂
likelyhood art style
do you use any custom brush for your lineart used in the examples in this video? ♥
I just use one of the default hard round brushes in photoshop, nothing fancy :)
WAITTT HES CUTE…
This is very useful advice. Thank you. But can you also talk above lineart:3
I’ll put it on my to-do-list :)
Still helpful even though i only draw animals
Quick question: do you use the same layer or a different one when rendering?
I use a different layer when rendering. Better to be safe than sorry 😉
Makes me wanna make a story about a dully coloured boring character slowly finding themself and happiness and becomes more saturated as time goes on to highlight their growth
As a beginner artist I always feel that my characters feel dead [literally] because how desaturated their skin is
Well in that case, it might be time to give some more saturated colours a try 😊
idk if you're still responding to comments on this video, but I have a question: how do you know which edges to soften/blur, or to keep sharp? (this is for edge control)
It depends on how harsh or soft your lighting is and how angular or soft the features of the face you’re painting is. If you have a strong light source shining above someone you’re going to get sharper edges especially in places like under the nose and chin because they’ll cast strong shadows. If the light source is softer you’ll get softer edge transitions.
The more prominent a feature on a face is the less you have to soften it. For example if someone has very strong cheekbones, you can keep that part of the face a bit more sharp. If you’re painting someone who is a bit more chubby, then you’re going to soften the edges out a bit more in their cheeks.
I recommend using photo reference if you’re not already to help you decide how soft or sharp your edge transitions are.
@@digitalmagician thank you so much 🥹 that's really helpful!
6:34 drawing reference

Thank you for respectfully providing tips and making a genuine effort to reach ppl how to color tan-dark skin, most ppl are so disingenuous and backhanded with their guide, but you really made a mature amazing effort without the subtle racism lol
