MATTE PAINTING & ZBRUSH TUTORIALS MANUAL
You can also see that I have done some manual painting of clouds in some areas. Original chosen reference (top) - Sky replaced and flipped image (bottom)įor this sky I used another image from the pack provided and blended it in.
Remember, we never want to lose details! It’s crucial for the details to be as visible as possible so we don’t want to have any over exposed areas. This way you are creating a good foundation to your work before adding the foreground details.Īs you can see here, I decided to change a few things like clouds and blue sky because I didn’t really want overexposed images to interrupt the whole scene. I believe it is best when you work from the background first and move forward. Now that I have my collection of images ready, I can start the real work. As I said earlier, you should definitely gather some images before you start, it will help a lot and to use as reference. Next I started the photobashing process by finding an interesting photo of horizons with some winter mountains and epic lighting. Concept phase - developing the look and story Part 2 - References It really doesn’t matter how bad your sketch is, you are just giving yourself some ideas before you start. Also, I’m thinking about implementing a 3D object here so I don’t really want to complicate the scene with complex elements. But it’s enough to get some information about the composition, depth, focus point and lightning. Part 1 - Concept & StoryĪs you can see in the picture below, my drawing skills are a little limited :D. I will try to explain it by showing you a few steps of my process.
Ok, so here you can have a look at a small breakdown which I’ve prepared. Quick Tip: Every matte painter or concept artist I have ever followed has said if you want to create realistic pictures, you need to find best possible reference images which help in creating more realistic scenes. I also added a 3D sphere from zBrush using the ‘Greeble’ effect. I spent about 3–4 hours a day after my office hours working on this piece. Of course I find all my resources on MattePaint and it’s always so easy! So I always recommend looking for reference before you start any piece. If I hadn’t prepared a few reference photos before starting - showing the sense of depth in snowy mountains - then probably I wouldn’t have achieved such a realistic look in the final image. The most challenging thing for me, as I’m an amateur in matte painting, was to create a feeling of depth in a landscape filled 90% with snow.
Because of my current age which is pretty close to retirement :D (30), I’ve decided to use my experience and focus on matte painting even more as I would like to break into the film industry. Now I work as a UI designer for different brands from around the world. I’ve been working as a Graphic Designer for different creative agencies in Poland for about 9 years. Hello! My name is Waldemar van Deurse, I come from Poland, or to be more specific, I live in a small city called Rzeszów.
