Digital Painting Tutorial VIDEO: Jason Chan Character Design 1: Style Exploration, Adobe Photoshop
MassiveBlack, group of professional artists devoted to produce quality training for digital painters, illustrators and concept artists just released a new product dedicated to the exploration of character styles.
In the words of the author, Jason Chan, digital artist:
Sometimes a client has a strong story but they don’t know exactly what they want for the visual look of their game or movie. Enter the ChanMan.
In this video we see him go through a broad range of stylistic iterations based on the same lead male character. The client can then use these ideas and move forward with a much clearer visual direction. This gets to the heart of concept art, and the more an artist is able to work in a variety of different styles the more he/she will be able to help a client, and get paid, and then have kids, or maybe a fast car.
