Chinese style illustration-please recommend Chinese style illustration course.

Style characteristics of Guo Chao's illustrations The style characteristics of Guo Chao's illustrations are as follows:

1. Common illustrations in national tide style, with rich and delicate lines, even colors and low saturation. The overall Chinese style is heavy but exquisite and durable, with a wider scope of application.

There are many lines in the picture, but the lines will be thinner. Basically, lines are used as bones to shape every object, and the overall color is more unified.

3. Lines are an important part, and the number of lines determines the fineness of your picture.

4. A picture has 1-3 general color systems to form an illustration.

5. The color is not fixed, but it can be light and bright, paying more attention to the performance of ink painting and the paper texture of the picture to reflect the characteristics of Chinese style.

6. Creating with the texture of rice paper or kraft paper background will give people a stronger Chinese flavor, and the background will be treated with ink.

7. Some colors in the picture are antique, the overall color is less, the saturation is lower, some are gorgeous, and the saturation is higher, but the overall color is not too much, and there is a general color range. You should control the number of your own colors.

National tide style illustration is an illustration that combines Chinese style elements with trend elements, and uses Chinese style elements to draw people and things that appear. The color matching, composition and elements of the picture should have obvious Chinese flavor.

I am basically a self-taught illustrator. If you really want to work hard in this field, the following things are very important. If it's just a simple hobby, I really want to paint well. The following is also very worthy of reference ~ ~

If it is a zero foundation, then the basic skills still need to be played. Human body structure is one of the key points to grasp, as well as composition and color. These things are directly related to the level of painting, and it is impossible to master them.

In terms of human body structure, the professional recommended Barjman's human body structure, which is recognized as a classic. In addition, in fact, the simple human body induction of Riman style can also be used for reference. I recommend a basic chapter of super comic sketch techniques. Although many places are wrong, it will be faster to get started.

Although there are professional theories about composition and color, I personally feel that I pay more attention to my understanding and experience.

Have a general understanding of the basics (such as various basic composition patterns), and then you can accumulate experience and inspiration by collecting more beautiful pictures. Meitu is not only a painting, but also a fine product such as photos and designs. Not limited to the national style, other styles can also bring inspiration.

These basic things can only be mastered by drawing more and practicing more, and there is no shortcut.

If you really want to draw well, sketches and other things that seem to have nothing to do with the national style are actually quite important.

I am also a self-learner, and I have been suffering from the basics, so I have to make up.

My personal suggestion is: a lot of sketch copying+a proper amount of complete copying+a small amount of original attempts ~ ~

Followed by tools.

At present, illustration is mainly based on computer drawing, and the future development trend should be the same. After all, it is convenient, quick and easy to modify.

Therefore, drawing software needs to be mastered. I don't know about your situation. Say it briefly.

Sketchpad, WACOM has always been the mainstream. My major is movies and extended series, but I personally don't think beginners need to be so extravagant. The kind that costs hundreds of dollars now is also a pressure to extend the film a few years ago.

In terms of software, the national trend is that PhotoShop should be given priority to at present (personally, PS has been used all the time), and Painter should be ok, but the specific situation is unknown.

The national wind tutorials I personally see at present are ps brushes and ps brushes.

If you don't have this foundation, you need to master the functions and usage of the software. You can find basic tutorials online or buy basic textbooks in bookstores.

I don't know much about the ps painting course of Guofeng, so I can try to search on major video websites.

In addition, for illustrations with obvious styles, brushes are more important.

To put it bluntly, the ink is faint, and there is that kind of brushwork. As long as there is some moderation, we can put forward the feeling of "national wind" So a good ink pen can save people a lot of effort.

I recommend a set of Guofeng PS brush "Ling Hua Ink Painting Pen", which I just found a few days ago. If you can't afford the full version, you can only buy it, but it should be really worth it. But since you are a novice, you can use the free version, and the simplified version of 25 yuan can also be considered.

Finally, I strongly suggest that if you want to follow the national style, real Chinese painting is the foundation.

Recommend some Chinese painting masters I like very much ~ ~

In figure painting:

Fan Zeng (freehand brushwork, worthy of worship! )

Yang Shutao (a typical meticulous woman)

Peng Lianxi (another classic meticulous figure)

Liang Qide (there are quite a few sketches of people, which are worth referring to)

Landscape painting:

There are many people in landscape painting, but landscape painting pays more attention to the overall artistic conception and layout, and is not expressed by illustrations. Therefore, I only recommend one master who I personally think is worthy of reference-Ceng Gang. Very fine and meticulous landscape, even if it is partial, can also be used for reference.

Flower and bird painting:

Flowers and birds, especially flowers, should be said to be one of the most commonly used pictures at present.

Because there are many people who draw well in classical style, it is not difficult to find, so I recommend these two masters:

Zou Chuanan (personal favorite meticulous flower and bird)

Zhou Zhongyao (meticulous flowers and birds, a large number of works, bookstores also have a variety of picture books)

This recommendation has a strong personal tendency. The style of these two meticulous flowers and birds can basically be said to be divorced from the feeling of classic meticulous flowers and birds, which may not be suitable for the large number of illustrations in the national style at present, but I personally think that their works are worth learning.

And if you just want to accumulate this material, you can consider finding some sketches for reference.

In fact, there are not many professional things about Chinese painting that can be found online. I really care about the national style. I can often go to the special section of the bookstore to see real Chinese paintings. Those are the real roots.

What types of illustrations are there? Illustration styles can be roughly divided into the following types:

1. Japanese and Korean winds

Features: The most typical Japanese style is celluloid, with beautiful painting style, slender figures and little change between men and women. But at the same time, it is slightly different, such as Japanese style is more casual and life-oriented, Korean style is more gorgeous and romantic, basically similar to realistic style.

2. European and American styles

Features: European and American style illustrations are mostly realistic, emphasizing the real texture and texture, and depicting delicately. I like exaggerated expressions to make the characters look more vivid and energetic.

3. China ancient style

Features: Compared with the illustrations of the above two artistic styles, the original Chinese painting also has its own distinctive features, which are reserved but full of tension. Although China's original paintings are more or less influenced by those of Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, its profound classical art, elegance and mystery are still its characteristics.

4.q version illustration

Features: The Q version of illustrations is the most prominent, with figures and animals as the mainstay. The figures are cute, exaggerated or funny, and the proportion of the human body is short. Although the lines are simple and the color blocks are clear, the characters have distinct personalities.

5. Graphic style illustrations

Features: mainly composed of color blocks, geometric modeling, smooth outer contour, almost no contour line, diverse visual expressions, amiable and rigorous. A popular style that conforms to modern screen media and contemporary aesthetic trends.

6. Humorous style illustrations

Features: commonly used exaggerated modeling, which is very common in European and American styles. It is often found in news magazine illustrations, and the pictures contain humorous and ironic charm, which is more related to political, social and cultural issues. The choice of color is also exaggerated, which makes people feel ridiculous at first glance.

7. Realistic illustrations

Features: the most common style, what is it, what is it, is like painting. Make clear what needs to be expressed most.
