I’ve met Donato … I’ve met Donato several times and sat through his classes. He was even nice enough to field a phone call by me and set me up with the same final project he had given his class and let me work along. I have his art books and a fewof his prints I’ve bought. He really has a passion for the painting itself and not just the image. Super nice guy and I am absolutely buying this.
I like his style. … I like his style. He’s a nice guy too. The only thing I see wrong is I don’t like how he skipped the painting of the lips and how they’re painted. Those are hard to paint and get them to look the way he somehow did. We’ll never know lol
Sorry…correction. … Sorry…correction…$60.00 for FIVE hours….EXCELLENT value…Everything from Massive Black is excellent…these people care about learning and are not gouging ….you get very fair value for your money…and you can download and get immediate satisfaction….and not have to wait two plus weeks and pay for postage and possibly customs…if outside the United States.
The other thing … The other thing that is truly special about this tutorial is that this is an artist that shares so much….and $60.00 is nothing for what he offers…truly most generous. I can name several DVD’s that I have bought of some artists who basically just sit there and paint…and offer NOTHING in the way of helpful info…NOTHING…and they have the gall to charge money for that…this man is generous and shares alot of excellent info..and is in his everyday studio…you see it for real. Awesome!!
It is back to … It is back to $60.00 for six hours of DVD…download…order the download and save yourself shipping…and if in Canada…customs…as I had to pay…download, download….and make your own DVD…Excellent….if….you like to paint like he does…Note…he is an illustrator and an excellent one…but he has a very good , in fact excellent , work process that gives him amazing results…However being extremely talented helps…check out his work online.
Really?? It’s fine … Really?? It’s fine but what I really think is fascinating is the face and he goes about that. It’s the best part of the video because he shows his true skills with color and making something come alive. It looks just like the models face he’s using. Best part in my opinion.
Just buy the DVD or … Just buy the DVD or download. Great value…if you like his style…lots of tips for illustrastors…you will have to adapt for a “fine artist” …such as canvas on board or canvas…he paints for speed and for his publisher…things have to be usable a flat scannable image asap…..
Also, where can I … Also, where can I find a drafting board with one of those stick things that you’re using to keep your hand steady? I use an easel, and sometimes use an old broom stick to keep my wrist still, but this looks better.
It’s a standard … It’s a standard gridded drafting board. It’s actually quite old… Most newer drafting board have metallic ruler/guides now, instead of the wooden one we see in the video on his drafting board.
