How To Draw Forest Landscape Background for storyboard or comics

How To Draw Forest Landscape Background for storyboard or comics

This quick conceptual sketch tutorial. How To draw forest landscape background. Draw and paint environmental sketch conceptual art using digital media photoshop. This one has a bit more color than my usual work...for the change trying things out and stuff. It's more vibrant and saturate, could it be the Spring weather? No, it's not even sunny here in Seattle, sadly

I am actually trying to do more panel as a tutorial along with the Manga comics...hopefully it will work out and I won't get bored creating the same genre and element. We'll see.

Very nice.
It's colourful, non-defined and loose, yet really feels like a lush spring forest. :)

Sure I enjoyed the tutorial! Agree with Gormash... it's quite loose but very defined at the same time. I hope you can do more tutorials involoving the colors as they're quite complicated (although value is the most important)!

Thanks and well done again! ;)

Man, your work is awesome!!! But, i have a sugestion: Why you don't make a subtitle for your tutorials? Many persons watch then, and some of then don't speak English. Sorry for mispellings, the English isn't my first language.

Thanks for all your environmental sketches Xia. Our team at college is creating our first map using the UT3 Engine, so I am going to do some concept sketches for the next 2 weeks. Hopefully stuff I've learned from you will come in handy!

Possibly post some if I don't think they're too crap! XD

Majur> Thank bro, Ouuu...um that's gonna required more time and technicality. It will be years until I have the money to pay people to help me do that. Here is what I can do. I CAN speak MORE CLEARLY and SLOWLY. How's that sound? :)
