  • Drinking: Bacardi Black with cola
I always listen music while working and always use headphones because my coworkers never approve my choices... or maybe because my random playlist is too random? :) I just push play random to my whole collection of all kind music and it doesn't bother me if after AC/DC starts whale song ambient music and then Björk sings with her strange voice. To tease my friends (and had too much time) I made youtube playlist. All songs are same what came from my computers random playlist.

I don't know if there is really any use for that playlist, other than test can you go to long car trip with me :) ...but here you go: [link]

Ýour gallery is superawesome :)
you are painting shades in greyscale and then blend in the colors, aren't you?
(I'm just looking for the most efficient way of digital painting ;) )

Thanks,

In my latest works here I've been using Gradient Map Layers over greyscale to give base colors. You can then later easily change colors if needed. But if you have complex picture you can't rely only to GM-Layers... I have always insane amount layers when i'm coloring, so I can't say my style is most efficient way :)

Little more details here: [link] [link]

Thank you! I have large amounts of layers too, but they're all segregated and stuff... I used to just build a large palette for every single part of illustration, and yesterday I just sketched a girl, gave her basic 5 layered shading and lighting on the skin, then put a flat skin color on top (with some blending) and as for 20 minutes 'quickie' it looks just insane (especially as almost all of my illustrations took more than 8 hours to finish). Now I'm trying to figure out what to do with it to change it from a sketch into full illustration and still be time effective... oh boy, sorry for such long comment on your profile haha ;)
