How to Paint Loose! (For Dummies) - Wandering King

Learn how to paint loose, evocative, subtle digital paintings from scratch!

I used to suck at painting loosely, but over the years I've finally figured out how to be efficient with my brush work and now I want to pass that knowledge on before I die of old age!

I'll show you how I painted this dark fantasy illustration starting with the loose line work and building up to simple forms using my personal method for dummies (like me!) to create believable characters and environments when you would otherwise be out of your depth.

What you'll get:

• 3 x 50-60 minute videos (condensed down from about 9 hours) narrated over with my thought process when painting thumbnails in Photoshop.

• 1 x bonus videos in real-time explaining a my simple 'posterize' method for building up forms easily.

• Brushes that I used in the painting (although I only used a few, they are effective at loose paintings)

• A few custom shapes to get you started with those background character silhouettes.

• Tool presets for essential smudge brushes to get that loose, painterly feel!

• 18 WIP progression steps

• Screenshots of my pure ref board

• A larger resolution close up of the main character
