Schoolism – Painting Sci-Fi from Start to Finish


Free Download Schoolism – Painting Sci-Fi from Start to Finish
Craig Mullins | Duration: 7:16 h | Video: H264 1920×1080 | Audio: AAC 44,1 kHz 2ch | 2,45 GB | Language: English
"Painting Sci-Fi from Start to Finish with Craig Mullins" is an in-depth, fine-grain look into how Craig Mullins conceives of, builds up, and polishes off a sci-fi painting with the epic-ness that we’ve come to expect of him. You’ll hear Craig himself talk about how he develops image ideas, his thoughts behind composition, how he analyzes light and color, and much more. It’s one thing to hear someone talk about the theory behind what they do, it’s another thing altogether to see those theories put into practice — in real time! — by a modern-day master.
Instead of regular assignments, Critiqued Session students for this class will be guided by Craig through the development of their own sci-fi-themed painting week by week, so no two Critiqued Session experiences will be the same!

When touchscreen smartphones and tablets were invented, the first thought that we as artists had was probably, "How can I draw with this?"
In this class, I am excited to share with you my tips and techniques for drawing and painting in Procreate, an app that I have been using exclusively for my work since 2012. The days of Procreate being "that iPad drawing app" are over. The Procreate that we know today is a powerful drawing program that happens to be mobile.
I will teach you how to draw, paint, and sketch in Procreate, make amazing custom brushes, and animate! With this class, I hope to make one of my favorite programs more accessible to a new generation of users!
