I can't find any tutorial on gumroad/youtube etc. that could explain value and value separation better. It's one of this tutorials that will stay with us for years, even decades, and people will watch it multiple times, and refer to it on forums. Great video Clint !

Met Clint in person at a mtg event around the time this was released and he has consistently put out my favorite art in the scene, immaculate in his dedication, thanks for sharing!

This tute has changed my life!! I have just spent the last 2 weeks redoing every project I've been dissatisfied with, to fantastic results. Thank you so much for this tute. I'd love to show you some before and after shots to show the dramatic improvement with attention to basics such as those outlined in this video.

I love how practical this video was, showing how value can make or break a image like with that mtg card att and it’s edit was great. Nothing gets the point across better than a real example.

Your videos are getting much better! You always were informative, but now you're getting better at talking and presenting these things. Keep it up, I'l continue watching and drawing ^^

[acrabdevis]

I've seen many tutorials on digital art of "basics", many of them talk over and over again of values, but I've never completely understood about what they're talking about.
Thank you so much for this.

I think the best part of this video is when you show what NOT to do with the image with high contrast everywhere, I think its one of the best ways to teach how to avoid mistakes.

I've always had an appreciation for MTG art, so it's nice to have direction from someone of that caliber.

[lemkilordwood.]

Values, shadows, lights, tones...Essentials that are my worst weaknesses. Very helpful, tanks.

This tutorial is so underrated. It has all and simple explanations about values that you need to know. This was so very helful and mind opener.

I learnt more in this than I do in lessons. Tysm, subbed

[WickedNPC]

This was great! It's so nice to be reminded of important things that you already kind of know but completely forgot about since there is so much to consider while painting. I'm really looking forward to the next one.
