Illustrator

Hello, I’m illustrator NyataBE. I primarily create illustrations for social games while continuously researching and refining advanced illustration techniques.

In this course, I will share my proprietary Selective Grayscale Method, developed over seven years of experimentation and practice. You’ll also learn how to incorporate 3D elements and photographic resources to create illustrations with strong visual cohesion and high editing flexibility.

This course goes beyond grayscale techniques alone. It also covers practical workflows for a variety of scenarios—perfect for artists who want to expand both the depth and breadth of their technical skill set.

Interview

Meet the Instructor

Question 01

What makes this course uniquely different from others?

I would say the greatest distinction lies in the originality of my technical approach. The illustration workflow I use today is a system I have almost entirely built myself, which makes it fundamentally different from conventional drawing methods.

While I cannot claim it is the single “correct” solution, I am confident that I can share many techniques that are rarely discussed elsewhere. Even if you adopt only certain parts of the workflow, they can immediately enhance your process. This course is especially valuable for artists who are eager to experiment and explore new creative methods.

Question 02

What do learners in this field usually find most challenging, and how does this course address those difficulties?

When using 3D for character coloring, many artists paint directly over the model. Compared to traditional drawing methods, this can make managing silhouettes and overall form more challenging.

Through this course, you will learn how to overcome those limitations, improving your control over shape and cohesion so you can create illustrations with a stronger sense of unity and visual consistency.

Question 03

What was the most difficult part of your own learning journey, and how did you overcome it?

Many courses that teach cutting-edge illustration techniques are offered primarily in English. Even with Japanese subtitles, the content can be difficult to fully grasp. I personally struggled with this as well.

With this course, I hope to ease that burden for future learners by providing clear, accessible explanations—so you can focus more on creating and less on deciphering complex material.

Question 04

A message to your students

In recent years, goals such as “How to become a commercial illustrator” or “How to create viral artwork” have become increasingly clear. As a result, many structured methods now exist to help artists achieve high-quality results in a short time. I believe this is a wonderful development.

However, I personally prefer to create while continuously questioning what I truly want to express—then thinking about how to bring that finished work to the market.

Rather than simply telling you where the destination is, I want to show you that there are different ways to move forward. If you feel uncertain about your current methods, or if you struggle to create the work you truly envision, I sincerely hope this course offers you—even in a small way—the support and inspiration you need.
