How to Draw and Paint a Robot Arm - Sketch to Color
Welcome to my class, “How to Draw and Paint a Robot Arm - Sketch to Color.”
In this class you will learn how to use basic shapes to design this concept. This can be a great way for beginners to build confidence in drawing more complex designs.
After we have drawn the initial design you will learn how to add digital paint and textures to create these effects. I will show you how to use a Mood Board to draw inspiration and ideas from. This can be a very helpful part to the creative process and many professionals do this in their daily routine.
You will learn how to implement parts of this mood board into your own digital painting. You will also learn how to overlay textures to make your paintings look and feel more realistic.
Things you can expect to learn from this class -
- Designing with Primitive Shapes
- Refining your Sketch
- Using Clean Line Work to Make Selections
- How to Use Blending Modes
- Painting in Light and Shadow
- Using a Mood Board to Spark Creativity
- Creating Lighting Effects
By the end of this class you will have a better understanding of what goes into creating fun and imaginative digital paintings of Robots, Cyborgs, and other Cool Character Designs. This is the first class to a full series on this subject.
I am using Clip Studio Paint to teach these lessons but you are welcome to use other programs such as Photoshop or Procreate. I teach this in a way that is cross platform.
I would love to know what you think of this class and I can’t wait to see your ART!
Thank you for considering my content and good luck with your studies.
