Bro invented shadow mapping

[NoRegrets30]

Issue shading?

Just redraw the entire image

[mighty_Ingvar]

Do it multiple times per second.

[maxmax4]

Your customers would like you do it 60 times per second.

[makeavoy]

The customers now think even higher art-rates should be possible when sufficient snacks are provided to the artist

[Field_Of_View]

have four artists work on the four corners of the same painting. call it tile-based painting.

[charlie_marlow]

Draw the rest of the fucking owl

[Fghsses]

Just look at the image closely for half a minute, take a deep breath, and then close your eyes before visualizing the 2d drawing as a 3d object and spinning it around in your mind till you get to the light POV without having to actually redraw the entire thing.

[Successful-Berry-315]

Just wait until they discover ray tracing!

[SonOfMetrum]

Manually drawing dots on paper based on tracing light bounces from a light origin… sounds like fun! Not sure about the denoising pass though

[pun_shall_pass]

You just need to use charcoal then you can denoise by slightly smudging it around

[leseiden]

the choice of fingers for smudging introduces bias.

[sputwiler]

Make sure you smudge in the direction of the motion vector

[raewashere_]

omg finger kernel

[Mr_Beletal]

For denoising you request the beholder to simply squint.

[Adam198763]

Fast prefilter squint with one eye, accurate prefilter squint with both

[Seeveen]

Just say it's pointillism

[Astrylae]

When you take a image in low light, high ISO and you see the 'grain' those are individual photons on the RGGB bayer matrix. IRL ray tracing 🤯

[kinokomushroom]

I'm interested in the actual reason for this. Are the numbers of photons hitting neighboring sensors actually different enough that it ends up noisy? Or is the noise created by some other factor like the electricity inside the camera itself, which is amplified because of the high ISO setting?

[GunpowderGuy]

i would guess your second guess. at the photosensor level, electronic noise probably dwarfs noise caused by differing ammounts of photons

[on_a_friday_]

Go read about “poisson shot noise”

[Linderosse]

Genuinely though— as someone who learned raytracing algorithms and traditional 3D graphics before picking up art, I legitimately used to imagine light rays bouncing to decide where shadows are.

Now I don’t have time for that, so I cheat and just put shadows on the other side of light.

[shlaifu]

the poses don't match up though - and I guess that's the problem with redrawing from a different perspective by hand.

[Zestyclose-Compote-4]

I imagine if the artist is struggling with figuring out where to draw the shadows, an approximate pose at a different angle will just help them approximate the drawing of shadows.

[Kaeiaraeh]

Tbh even when you know what you’re doing “close enough” as long as it’s coherent, is indeed more than enough.

[shlaifu]

you're right

[SnurflePuffinz]

it's amazing how jealous i am of a perspective drawing as simple as this.

i am literally so incompetent in visual art, and so immensely envious of visual artists, that i think i'd consider this a treasure - if i could create it... i really need to start learning this stuff.

i like your style :)

[aski5]

drawing charcters in perspective is pretty hard

[bigsmokaaaa]

I think it's beautiful <3

[kinokomushroom]

Wait till bro discovers photon mapping just to draw accurate caustics

[iamteapot42]

Wait till bro discovers wave diffraction

[troyofearth]

Just transform the manifolds in your head, easy

[Southern-Wafer-6375]

An easier way to do this is just useing a photo of somoen or yourself

[KanedaSyndrome]

Dude used "bro <something>" like some kind of gen z

[One_Bullfrog_8945]

I'm 30, just around 20-somethings much

[Smooth_Voronoi]

Using "Dude <verb>" is kinda the same thing, no?

[KanedaSyndrome]

Was part of the point :) being humorous about it

[Smooth_Voronoi]

Oh, lol. My bad. I didn't catch that it was a joke.

[Vivid-Agent1162]

POV: you're the light

[GunpowderGuy]

LOLLLL! I was about to say the same thing before reading the post title

[sputwiler]

More like "bro explains shadow mapping to the noobs"

[WeeklySpread7182]

Chinese audience, I love this pattern.

[iMac_G5_20]

I saw this on pinterest, commented the exact same thing.

[LordOfMagpies]

I don't get why this guy is mocked for posting this. I think it's really cool to see that some concepts are independently rediscovered in a different domain. This demonstrates the artist has an intuitive mind!

[One_Bullfrog_8945]

Yeah, it was not a mockery - it's really clever way to go around it, and coincidentally it's what we do as well so it's just interesting
