substance, drawing tablet, colour theory, good brushes, an understanding of 2d painting

were these actually painted in substance? I honestly have no idea how good painter's brush engine is that's why i'm asking

Yes you can do it all in substance.

BUT

I recommend 3dcoat for handpainting.
Why you may ask?
There's just way more quality of life additions and extra features tailored for a quick handpainting workflow.

Even features down to a livelink in photoshop Or even colour picking from a window inside of 3dcoat on a custom image as you draw can make you pretty fast at doing this stuff.

Not to mention everyone at blizzard working on WoW use it now.

Didn't know that about 3dcoat. Always figured it was just an alt to Substance. Will give it a shot; thanks anon.

most people would think it's a lesser texturing program, but it's just as powerful.

And if you just do it for texturing (as there are other modes), its completely free.

You can do that in 3dcoat, blender, substance, mari, zbrush itself even.
You don't even need a wacom. I mean you need one if you're serious about it, but if you want to paint some props all you have to do is download Blender, watch a handpainted tutorial (an easy one) and do it.
It's gonna look like crap at first but you'll be doing it. Then it's a matter of sticking with it and practicing. But from the moment you're reading this post to your first handpainted model, if you really want to do it it shouldn't take you more than 40 minutes.

Not that anon, but it looks like you can only export textures at 512x512 once the trial ends (or higher res with a watermark). Unless there's some workaround or something. I guess getting rid of a watermark wouldn't be too much of a hassle if it's just one at the corner or something and you're not using that UV space anyway.

no its not a trial.. Its called 3dcoat textura. Locate to the buy panel, then click on student/teacher.

https://pilgway.com/product/3dcoattextura

I dont even know if they verify your student status which is the best part. But yeah its all the features of the texturing mode and rendering.

I saw this tutorial where someone took an existing texture, like a photograph of bricks or rocks or whatever. They brought it into photoshop/gimp and sampled three or four colors from the image, then on a new layer with some opacity they painted over areas of the picture with those sampled colors to basically get a hand painted look in terms of fewer colors, but underneath everything you get the real details of the IRL texture.

They did it to tileable textures, I imagine you could repeat that process on objects by projecting a texture onto something then sampling colors and overlaying them until you get a nice result. You'd basically just be doing hand painting from scratch at that point, but informed by colors and such from real textures.

Sounds like a interesting workflow. Do have a link to that tutorial still? or vaguely remember the title?
perhaps it was on 80lvl?

Yeah I looked at that, but it just says that your school actually has to have a license with them and they'll provide a key.
I gave the buy option a try (since it's 1 euro) and sent my student ID, so here's hoping it works.

I mean I hate it too, but in the case of the 3d Coat, it's not too bad. Just "buy" it for another year for 1 euro.
Odds are you probably wouldn't even need to do that and it'd just continue to work. Think of it less of "renting" and more of an extended trial.
At least it's not as bad as the jews at Adobe. Though I'd obviously like to own something rather than rent it.

Start with an AO map and overlay a color. Run a few paint daubs with a brush and wala hand painted.

I've tried learning handpainting multiple times to replicate valorant textures but I suck everytime and end up going back to PBR anyway ;___; I love handpainted textures so much but I can't put my brain into it past just painting straight vertical strokes.

It was from this tutorial I followed a long time ago about making modular assets for a game I was making: https://youtu.be/2s0mANzeuUk
The relevant bit is around 19:30, in the video he only does a light overlay of the color picked colors, but when I did it I went a bit heavier on the overlays to make it look a bit more painted than photoreal.

I've also done this guys videos on hand painting a pillar in blender, which felt pretty approachable to someone who didn't have much digital art background https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7ALfRw6I5I
