Is it just me, or does he always sound like he's grinning? Like he's thinking about a joke and he could just giggle/chuckle any second.

The way you speak makes it sound like you know a very embarrassing secret about me and are trying not to laugh at it as you talk to me. WHAT DO YOU KNOW, SINIX.

'Dont get too attached to anything' I think this is a gem of advice lol thank you this video is very helpful for me

Sinix, I just want you to know that for me this is the art equivalent of a big, healthy, nutritious but also delicious meal. And it also makes me want to cook.

so wait, you're telling me i gotta draw like a painter and paint like a sculpter... what If I want to get into sculpting tho?

So basically tutorial to making your art look good: 1. Squint 2. Squint harder 3. Squint until you can't see your art anymore Done!

Me: damn that nose lookin goood sinix: nose r difficult Me: oh

I love his smiling voice. XD

When in doubt; Elves!

man, i love your paint style.

This was amazing. I leveled up my digital painting skills after seeing this. (You can do this type of strokes in photoshop with a "mixer brush", found in the toolbar under the same button as the regular brush and pencil tools)

Kinda late here, but I stumbled upon this video ever since I've subscribed to your channel, and I honestly love your painting process. Even the fun parts of messing around with the colours & proportions! I learnt a lot from your videos & it's always been helpful for me in my art journey. So, thank you! :)

You can really tell that sinix is having geniuine fun. One of my fave artists.

"just squint, and don't look back"

Your voice is so perfect for tutorials. So damn calm and relaxing, I could listen to you all day.

this video still contains pure gold

Seeing you paint is always a freakin' eye/artgasm. I loove it!

you're usage of the contrasting pinks/reds and blues creates such a cool saturation in the character and and such dynamic, and it's so much more impressive than the basic Grey's and flesh tones. thank you for such an awesome video !!!

You're such a happy person omfg It's a joy to listen to you while you paint

Your narration always puts a smile on my face. You make your practice time so much fun!

hey everyone! as a fellow ibis paint x user i thought to help you guys with what brushes i use to get this sculptor effect on ibis paint 1) you need a fade brush( i personally use the watercolur pencil brush) 2) the smudge tool procedure- you basically after drawing the strokes with the fade brush(watercolour pencil), switch between the smudge tool to blend the colours. hope this helped🤗

This is wonderful advice! this helped so much to dispel the confusion i've had about how other artist get those sharp lines and here you are explaining it in its simplest form. I honestly wish I had found this sooner!

I really admire how honest you comment and treat your work :) looking forward for more of your videos!

I love how passionate you are about your work, it makes the video that much better. I couldn't help but smile as I went through it, very helpful and informative!

Baah, this makes so much sense so quickly !!! In 20 minutes you've helped me figure out something I've been stuck on for at least a couple of months, thank you.

this is the most fascinating art resource i've seen lately. i just love how you're at this skill level where you're able to just sculpt things without having to sketch out your characters first, and your use of colors... just wow! my friend who's a lot better than me told me it's all about values, after you get the values right you can use pretty much any color you want. that's what i want, i can only hope to be as good as you one day!

I've been watching your tutorials for a long time. I really like your style! Thank you!

Wow your use of Hue variation and skin tones are amazing! Very fun to watch. Thanks for sharing!

I think I finally realized what your art style reminds me of. It reminds me of the Dishonored concept art. Which is awesome. You're a great inspiration, and I hope you continue making tutorials and videos!

This is an amazing tutorial, thank you for making it! I wanted to start digital painting for quite a while now, and your video gave me a good idea where to start. I finished my first painting earlier tonight and was blown away with how well it turned out! Thanks to your advice, of course. Thank you so much, you're really good at teaching, please keep doing what you're doing! ❤

Thank you for this - you're the guy who finally helped me get digital painting, been trying to learn for months. Your free, messy style clicked with me, and you have a great way of explaining the actual techniques, rather than just assuming people know things. Like the way you point to things and key ideas in your videos with actual arrows.

Damn, your tutorials really stick me on the screen till the very last second! Your way to carve out details, shapes, surfaces, hues and lighting is kinda fascinating to me. Definitely the way I'd love to pursue to bring my style to the next level and make it through way faster without wasting much time on details, especially when they're not needed. Great job Sinix, keep it on!

You are a talented being and your ability to communicate gracefully is a great wealth. I appreciate what you've shared and the emphasis you place on genuine, helpful conversations is beneficial! Thank You!

This was probably the biggest revelation I've ever had, thank you I love you forever

You have such a great positive, layed back attidude towards the whole subject. Totally enjoyed the video :)

I really love how solid your paintings look.

a good alternative for the dry brush on Photoshop is the tool mixer brush, play around with the settings and you can smooth things out in a similar way, i have it on my shortcut since i started watching sinix painting and i eally like it! :)

I really enjoy painting like that more and more. No pre drawing, just sculpting over big chunks of colors. Thanks so much for all your videos, they are super helpful!

I LOVE your painting style. Your videos are really fun to watch. They make me want to pick up my tablet! :) Thanks for what you do. :)

You are so happy all the time, it's awesome. Beautiful work and great explanations. Wish I could subscribe more than once.

"Squint like.. your life depending on it" - this is the phrase of the day)) I really like how your voice sounds, so relaxed

@Sinix great tutorial.

Great work Sinix, I've missed these kinds of videos

This is one of my favorite art videos of all time!

Guys who want to MAKE this brush on PROCREATE I have a configuration! In the Paint tab of the brushes, choose the flat brush and open its settings by giving another touch. In the first tab (tracing) Place the following values: Spacing 8.7%, streamline 0%, tremulation 0%, drop 0%. Below choose pressure narrowing, and choose size and pressure at MAX. In the Form tab put dispersion at 0% and rotation also at 0% and mark filtration shape with improved. In Granulate put everything in 0% and mark the filtration as Classica. In the Dynamica tab comes the most important: mark the brush as wet mixture and put dilution 95% and load at 84% attack by 1% and pull at 25%, gradation put everything to the right, and put all in dynamic of the opacity at 0%. In the Brush tab, put the opacity options on the max and angle at 62% (all others in this tab put 0%!). And lastly, in the General tab on the brush's behavior part, turn on the classic narrowing option and place the option to smudge at 90%. Its Done. Ps: I use procreate in Portuguese and so I may have translated some settings with different name!

You sound so happy...!

You're the best teacher on UKposts, seriously

Lord you make painting look fun and great aaa. Also that brush is so satisfying to watch

Omg I love your commentary, it adds a lot of fun to the video. :)

This is the EXACT effect I love to do on my paintings, and I haven't found anyone on UKposts that shares that preference of mine, but here you are and you're speaking my language! So good man.

god i love this video so much. it explains so much i was missing in my art improvement that i was just almost grasping onto

i really like the details in your paintings, great video!!

I love how you make it seem so easy!!! Thank you for the inspiration!

anybody know how i can uh, duplicate the brush hes using from corel draw into photoshop? thatd be great thanks

You are a fabulous teacher in addition to your superb artistry.

Thank you for hsaring your process and how to use the dry brush. This video helped a lot!

I know people say painting is a techniques. But some things just come to you. A lot of these techniques we use subconsciously but never consciously use it. IDK what I'm saying but IT HELPS when senior artists put them into words so we can comprehend what we had in the back of our heads.

THANK YOU! In an hour I totally overshot my leveling up progression! I've always wanted to be able to paint like this, but you made it simple and easy. Can't find a place from excitement!! Of course, it took me a day away from the canvas so that I can look at it fresh and not compare what I do to what you do in the video, and it clicked! So glad I found this video and your channel. Sending you loootsa positive karma. I'm using Clip Studio Paint, I had to fiddle around to find something similar (the change between mixing and painting suggestion I saw in the comments).

love how we can all collectively agree that this is one of the best videos about painting and subtle but powerful art advices here n there♥️♥️

wow,, super helpful. I was thinking all my back and forth and over painting was due to my inexperience but to watch you work over the whole face in many ways was eye opening! I hope one day I can be as good as your " nonsense" painting!

Damn him erasing his glasses dude hurts me ;w; But ye he said "Don't get too attached to anything." QwQ

SINIX is like the TOP 20 drawers/painters in the world!!! he is sooo good it's just RAW SKILL amazing. AND he is generous to share his advice!!

Great tutorial. The biggest thing I get from it is keeping a sense of fluidity and having fun.

This is so amazing I really admire you and your skills are 🔥 Thank you for always making great tutorials. God bless you and your art❤️😊🌼

Could you please share your brush settings? I cannot get mine to look blocky or have the same consistency as you are able to use. Similar, but I've been messing around with Corel Painter for about 3 hours now and so such luck. Much appreciated!

This is an EXCELLENT overview of your approach to painting, and offers a wonderful insight. This tutorial actually *_IS_* a tutorial! (Imagine!) A quick question: Do you if know if the brush in question comes with "Painter Basics"? BTW: I used to be a big supporter of Painter, but it kept getting more and more bloated and they kept changing the interface. And of course there are a lot more "natural media" brushes in almost all painting software these days. I'm a HUGE fan of Manga Studio 5 currently.

This was really helpful and easy to learn from, with great end results. Thanks a lot!!

This seems to be exactly what MrJack does. Builds up forms and adds contrast along the way. At the same time he is always cutting and smoothing to create a sense of form. Thank you so much for this. Hearing a word put to the technique is always so enlightning. Now when I study a form I can ask myself, "when does the form cut and how does it smooth"

agradezco mucho tu contenido y las personas que hicieron capaz su correcta traduccion al español, muchas gracias !

I paint this way too, coloring lines its boring because you know the end result, the process can be doubled if you dont havea clear idea of what you want, its tedious and super long, but i love it, the happy accidents its what makes me love it. Nice video.

Thanks! This helps so much. I was having the hardest time figuring out the 'cutting' part.

I've only known your channel for roughly a year and i think the main factor why everyone loves watching your tutorials aside from being a good 'teacher', is your voice. It always feels like you're grinning and speaking to me whenever i watch your videos, it just makes your tips and tutorials a lot better.

This video helped me a great deal. I just made brush in procreate that behaves like this one and started using it like you explained in video, and it is amazing! Thank you so much! :)

Hey Sinix, thanks for the lovely video. Do you know if there is a similar dry brush for Clip Studio Paint or Photoshop? All the "dry" brushes I've found hold limitless paint. Thanks!

This tutorial is really awesome & inspiring! Thanks for making this art video! :D

I've been painting and drawing for years and also have 20 years experience with graphic design using mostly Photoshop, but digital art is new to me. These videos are terrific.

Dude, like, I've only watched two of your videos (the brushes and this), applied it to my work and it improved a lot i tell ya, why did i only discovered you today?

not sure if you know a game called Dishonored but the art in this video reminds me so much of it :D and also could you tell me how you learned about what colors to usein and how to blend them right and stuff

Hi Sinix, I just wanted to thank you for this video, it made a significative improvement in my approach. I put it into practice in my latest paint, thanks.

Ah, I also love the looseness. I work like this too sometimes and it's rather liberating!

Hi @sinixdesign i`ve found so hard to setting up my acrylic dry brush just like yours. Can you PLEASE share your brush setup? i cant block/cut/smooth/mix like yours in all your tutorial vids . Mine seems to be so rough. I´m finding amazing this corel painter tool because of you.

"Don't get too attached to anything" *looking at my 50+ layers and back ups* ...okay, but

Oh, my! I love the way you are talking :D Awesome art!

Well done man ;)! Message was clear and the painting perfect!

Would it be possible to create a similar brush in Photoshop?

Does anyone know what brush to use to apply this technique on ipad pro with Procreate to get brush that can smear color? I found brush that tapers off paint but I just can't find a way to smear paint. Of course I can use smudge tool but it is not natural because I would need to switch between two tools all the time. If anyone knows how to setup this please share! Tnx

As always, thanks for the inspiration!

This is an excellent channel! This is the most essential fundamental lesson. I had real trouble finding the settings to get brushes to react like this. HERE'S A GREAT PROCREATE TIP...... just use the basic pre set damp brush in the paint folder. It reacts in a similar way.

very useful tutorial!! may I know how u decide the various hues on the skin? is there a rule of thumb that we should follow or is it very random? is there a recommended number of hues to stick to? I'm worried that my face will turn into a rainbow. thank u so much :)

what kind of brush do I use to get this effect in procreate?

Hi, how do you manage to write on such a straight line? Is there a tool to help draw arches or ovals in Painter? I'm not clear if there's a specific smoothing tool?

I really enjoyed watching this and found myself wanting to try out my copy of Corel (which i've only opened recently but done nothing with) - thank you!

I'm using Corel Painter 2016 and I can't seen to find the Acrylics > Dry Brush, for one, now the Acrylics and Gouache brushs are in the same category and there is no Dry Brush... Helpo?

You are really absolutely amazing... no words. Absolutely bravo! :)

verrrry interesting. thanks for sharing your work & process!

Wow. This was amazing. I recently started to try and learn how to 'draw'. I use Krita, and have been desperately trying to learn. I've been having a hard time finding a style that speaks to me, but I LOVE this. This is exactly what I want to be able to do... So my question to you is, do you have any other tutorials with this style? And, do you have any advice you can give right now that would help learn how to paint with this style? Lastly, I want to thank you a ton! This was amazing, I'm so happy I stumbled upon this, seriously great vid man.

Sycra: PLEASE DON'T GO. Sinix: Sorry mang. I got birds bruh, they need me. pce lates.

I love your art! so cool, so inspiring!

Your videos are the first ones where I think listening to an explanation/tutorial for art is fun :o Probably because you sound like you're smiling the whole time

how can i get a brush like this one in photoshop?
