RE: eSteem Android release preview
Very fun work! I am traditional artist and would like to learn to draw in Photoshop. Could you point me out toward nice Photoshop tutorials? I am planing to buy tablet and pen next month and already have Adobe Photoshop.I beleave that traditionlal art will become vinyl records in 10-20 years :)
Thank you so much! Well, when I was studying in the university color science classes and asked our teacher can I do all the homework on computer she told me I will not succeed because computers are limited in abilites etc. But once I've done she was amazed and accepted the work. It was more than 16 years ago... That time I thought traditional art is already becoming rare antique.
But more I am working in digital more I would like to get back to traditional actually. Trying to find some ways to fake it in digital and make it look more real with textures and different brushes imitating materials...
For the tutorials I don't know. It depends on what do you want to draw. I would suggest you to find a digital artist which you will like a lot and try to copy the style of work asking him personally for the process. The basics are all around the net here. Like what is layers, how to draw in photoshop etc.
Thank you for your reply. One more question :) What tablet and what size will be better investment for beginner? I looked at Amazon and got lost in choices :)
It doesn't really matter. Small size will be enough I am sure. I was working with A4 size tablet for 5 years and then switched to A5 without feeling any difference. But it may depend on your style of drawing... What is your budget? I would suggest you buy iPad Pro with Apple Pencil. It will be really good investment and it feels like real drawing with Procreate application it will imitate all the popular materials pretty well.
my overall budget will be in 100-400 range .
Then I think it's okay to start with Wacom Intuos Draw. It's around $80-90 and everything you need will be there except the display :) this is a surface where you put your hand with sylus down looking in front of you at the monitor of your computer :)
thank you.
