Genre: eLearning | Language: English

Kyle Lambert is an extraordinary artist who has become an advocate for finger painting with the iPad. He focuses on photo-realistic digital painting and illustration.

PAINTING ESSENTIALS
Discover how to set up Adobe Photoshop ready to use as a digital artist. Explore the preferences, settings and various aspects of the applications interface that are crucial when painting. Learn the significance of using a graphics tablet when painting digitally and explore the settings for the paint brushes including those that relate to using the graphics tablet. Learn how to set up your working environment to display the original photograph side by side with a blank canvas of the correct size.

ACCURATE DRAWING
Explore a few new techniques to help you draw more accurately. Lear n how a technique called ‘negative space’ can help you position objects correctly within a painting. Discover some tools within the application that helps to improve accuracy. This will involve the use of a digital grid system and guides to help identify important measurements. Watch at the end as the artist completes the final stages of the drawing so that it is ready to be colored.

ACCURATE COLOR MIXING
Identify ways to simplify the process of mixing color in Adobe Photoshop. Begin by understanding how to use the color selector to discover the shade you need. Then look at using the color panel for making subtle changes to a color. See how to use the swatches panel to save any colors you will need to use again. Finally be guided by the artist as he mixes and paints in the basic colors for the painting project of Kristin Kreuk.

HIGHLIGHTS AND SHADOWS
Discover techniques for adding in highlights and shadow areas in a painting. Learn and understand the significance of highlights and shadows and how they will improve the believability and realistic quality of the digital paintings. The artist will reveal some of the best techniques for introducing such areas into the painting project and will guide you through adding the necessary highlights and shadows to the painting project of Kristin Kreuk.

FINE DETAILS
Discover the crucial part to transforming a project from the mundane to a masterpiece. In this vital section learn about the long process of adding essential details to a painting project and see how this stage can take an ordinary painting and convert it into a realistic image. The artist again will guide you through the process as he focuses on the eye area of the Kristin Kreuk painting. See how the artist paints in individual eyelashes and pours in the skin taking the painting towards a photo-realistic finish. Finally watch as the remaining areas in the painting are completed and in a speeded up video, see everything come together to reveal the finished painting.

Why only one installer? Well, we decided not only to exceed esanti’s crap release by fixing fur, distributed rendering, etc etc, but we also created an all-in-one installer. Pre cracked! All you need to do is select which version you want and where you wish to install it. That’s it!

We’ve found some funky workings with 2008, please report any bugs with it here. It should still work perfectly fine.

cmiVFX Nuke: 3D Matte Painting Extractions
English | AVC1 1236x696 | MP3 128 Kbps | 861 MB
Genre: eLearning

This video was developed for our current client based on customer demand. cmiVFX is dedicated to showing similar project solutions across multiple software packages. We know from experience, that artists must be flexible about the software packages that they use in order to stay competitive in the industry. If your or your team needs to migrate from one software package to another, cmiVFX will have a training solution for you.

3D Matte Painting Extractions are a now common process in the visual effects industry. The technique for matte paintings and 3d extraction have been around for years, but normally found in a 3d animation package like Maya, XSI, or Cinema 4D.

As usual, weshow several different methods for achieving your goals so that you can apply your learning to your own personal projects. We included a 2k matte painting with a solid plate and in 20 different layers to assist you with the time it takes to prepare your materials for the composites. There is no doubt about it, we created the perfect environment and digital assets to get you into this project no matter what path you decide.

Digital Tutors - Creating Realistic Eyes in Photoshop and Maya

2010-04-10T16:32:00.000+05:30

In this series of lessons, we will learn how to texture and render realistic eyes using Photoshop and Maya.
When trying to create highly realistic, lifelike characters, the importance of the eyes is often understated. In fact, the eyes are one of the most important aspects to consider when
creating characters that truly look and feel alive. During this course, we will learn how to create highly realistic eye textures from scratch using Photoshop, and in a way that gives us a high degree of flexibility and control over the textures' color variations and other details. Once the texturing has been completed, we will jump into Maya, where we will discuss shading and rendering techniques that can give the eye a highly realistic final look. Along the way we will be exploring many additional tips, tricks, and workflows that you will be able to use both in Photoshop and in Maya to help create more believable, realistic eyes for your characters.
Lesson Outline (13 lessons)
1. Introduction and Project Overview
2. Creating UV snapshot for the eyes within Maya
3. Starting the iris shape in Photoshop
4. Building the first layer of iris fibers within Photoshop
5. Painting additional iris details within Photoshop
6. Altering coloration of various iris layers
7. Viewing initial eye texture within Maya
8. Painting eye veins within Photoshop
9. Finalizing eye texture within Photoshop
10. Creating a realistic eye material within Maya
