Transcripts

1. Introduction: Hello, everyone. I'm Jenny, and in this class, we are going to draw this cute kawaii illustration of an adorable cactus in Procreate. During this class, you'll get familiar with a lot of useful features like QuickShape Tool, recoloring with reference, clipping masks, and blending modes, and in the basics of drawing in Procreate. By the end, you'll not only draw an adorable illustration you'll be proud of, but also feel super confident using Procreate. And now let's spend some time drawing. 2. Line Base: Begin this class by firstly deciding what kind of canvas we're getting Vigon. Today we're sing a standard square canvas from Procreate with Pixel Width and Pixel heights the 2048 pixels. DPI a 300 and our color profile is set as SRGB with this loan number. When it's all done, let's hit done. Let's take a look at our new Canvas and then before starting to work onto our illustration, let's go under the project and res stab and download all the materials mentioned for this class. You did it, let's continue our preparational part. Firstly, by going to a brush. We are going to the calligraphy folder and we will choose moonin brush. We want all of our lines to be pretty smooth and easy to work with. So let's tap onto the brush, go inside the brush studio, go under stabilization on the left, and we'll be playing with amount of streamline and amount of stabilization. You can go to the drawing pad and try it out right here. You can go to the sliders and tweak them to your liking or set the settings the same way as you see them right now onto your screen. When you are satisfied with everything, let's hit down over our top right, and let's continue by going to our layers by going to the background color. Go to the palette on the bottom and cards on the top, and we'll select the color with the title background. When we did it, let's continue by going to our actual color palette. Again, going under palette on the bottom and under cards on the top, and we will go and select the color with the title green line. With this color, we will go to the size slider and set it to something around 9% and with one line, we will start to create our illustration. We will need to go to our canvas and create a shape of the ellipse, hold it at the end, and you will see that you snap it to a better shape. While you are holding it, let's lift it up and we will go to this option dt on the you can see we have some nodes, and we will go and adjust our shape slightly by making it little bit more open. Let's go toward one of the nodes on the sides and we will drag it more toward the side. When we have it, when the shape is pretty rounded, let's hold our Apple pencil at some length space and move the shape more toward the center. We'll need to have a bit more space on the bottom than we have on the top and some of the equal space on the side. When we have the results like that, let's tap on the screen to accept the changes and let's continue by creating a little pots on the bottom. So for the pot, firstly, let's go to our layers, and we'll tap on the plus icon to create lay right here. Then we will go to our color palettes to change the color to red lines and with the same brush and with the same size of the brush, let's go toward the bottom part of our cactus, and we will start by creating a shep like that. We are creating a very nice looking curve going toward the bottom part of our holding our line in the end, and when we have it, we will go toward our Edit two on the top to adjust it slightly. So decide on the placement of this element, you can move it slightly, so we will have less space over the bottom part or more space if you prefer. When you find the placement, make sure that you have some tips on the sides and that they are positioned quite equal on both sides. When we have it, let's tap on the screen. And when we have the line like that, we will need to make a copy of it. So let's go to our layers. We will go to this layer where we have this line. We will swipe it from right to left, and we'll choose the option duplicate. Now when we have the second Opie, we will go to our Aoki on the top left using the option uniform and going under snapping to turn on snapping into the settings. When we did all of this, let's get back to the canvas. We will hold our Apple pants and we will drag our shape down. We are going along these three lines that we have right here, our guiding lines, and that means that we are making this line parallel to the land that we have on the top without moving it toward the left or right. When we have something like that, this side onto the size, you can go with a bigger size or smaller size of this element. This is our top part of the pot. When you are satisfied with everything here, let's go straightly to our layers, and we will merge the two layers together. Go into the layer on the top, tapping on it, and using the option merge down. Now, when we have these two lines onto one layer, let's get back to our brush, and we'll go toward the side and we will close this sheet. So go in from the bottom from this line that we have right here, and we will need to create a rounded sheep going in that way. So hold your line in the end to be able to adjust it through your editing mode. Go to this editing mode and make sure that you are creating some kind of the seamless line. So we'll need to make it look as if we've created the line with one line, so we don't need to have the very visible gaps or some kind of the continuation of the lines right here, the connections. When we have the results like that, let's tap onto the screen, and let's go toward the opposite side to create something similar here. So again, starting from the bottom and creating the curve going. Holding it at the end, go into our editing tool over the top and adjusting the placement by moving this little note right here. Try to make it quite similar to what you have onto the opposite side. So if you need to take a look at it from the distance while you are at the editing mode, go and zoom out your canvas. Try to create something similar when you are satisfied with everything, tap onto the screen to accept the changes. If you see that you have some minor little shape that you need to work on, go grab your eraser and adjust everything. In a way that you would like to see it. We will need to have a pretty smooth line right here. So let's go right here and make it happen. And when we have the result like that, we can go and get rid of all the lines that we don't need. Firstly, let's get back to these little parts that we have our connections at, and we will go to them and with the smaller size of the eraser, we will cut the parts right here. Go into the opposite side too and create and the cut here too to create a nice connection between the colors. We have the result like that, let's get back to our layers, and we will go to layer with our cactus on the top. We will grab eraser. We will make it slightly bigger, and we'll go toward the bottom part and erase this line completely because we don't need it anymore and we will have the overlapping part over this little part. When we have the result like that, let's get back to our layers, and we'll merge these two layers together. So go into the layer on the top, taping on it, and using the option merge. Now when we have the result like that, let's continue working onto our pots. Firstly, getting back to our brush, go lower than we have the shape right here and creating something similar right here too, creating a curve in the middle. Hold your line in the end if you are holding it and if you are snapping it to a straight line, try it out one more time by creating a slightly bigger curve. Hold your line in the end and let's go to our editing tool over the top to adjust everything that we have right here. Let's try to make this line quite parallel to what we have on the top. Try to position it at the center. So if you need to move it, move it, make the size the one that you would like to see right here. So go a little bit higher or a little bit lower with your shap. When you have the result that you like, let's tap onto the screen, and let's get back to our brush to connect this shape that we've created on the bottom with the shape on the top. So let's step a bit from the side that we have onto our top part of the pot and we will create a line going down in that way. Connect it with the ship onto the bottom, and let's do the same onto the opposite side. So try to make the similar size where you are stepping from the edge. And then we will get to the bottom part and we will connect it with the ship. Now, let's work a little bit onto these corners. We will soften them up firstly by going to them and creating the curves instead of these very straight corners. So create a curve, hold it at the end, try to match it with the previous line so everything looks pretty simless. When you have it, let's go to our erasm and get rid of this corner that we have outside. So with the smaller size of the eraser, let's go and create something going in that way. When we have it, let's get back to ash and go to the opposite side to create something similar here. Firstly, creating a curve inside this very straight corner, holding it, going into our editing tool over the top, if we need to adjust it in any way, matching it with the previous lines that we have and then grabbing our eraser to erase the corner that we have onto the bottom. When we have the nicely looking element like that, let's go and work more onto our top part. 3. Finishing the Lines: So firstly, let's get back to our green line color. We'll get back to our leas and create one more leaf on top. With the same size of the brush, let's go toward the sides firstly, and we will create some segments of our little cactus right here. So let's go toward the right firstly. We will go a little bit inside the shape, and we will create the line or the shape going in that way. If you need to try it out a couple of times to create the shape that you like, go and do what you need to do. You can go a little bit higher, a little bit lower with the shape. So try it out a couple of times. When you have the result that you like, let's go toward the opposite side and create something similar here. Let's go a little bit maybe lower or higher, so we don't have a very symmetry looking element, and we will go and create it in a smaller way. So for example, let's go with the shape going in that way. When we have it, we will also go toward the top and create some parts here too. For example, let's go from the middle part and create the angoon in that way, some of the ear looking elements. Again, you can hold your line at the end, go to the editing tool, adjust it from here, make it bigger, make it smaller, adjust the rotation, the placement, everything that you want to adjust right here, you are welcome to adjust. When you are done with it, tap on the screen and go to the opposite side to create something similar here. You can go with the symmetrical elements right here or you can play around with everything that you have right here and adjust it to the way that you want it to be. When we have the result like that, let's grab our eraser and get rid of all the lines that we don't need. Firstly, let's go toward these little parts where we have the overlapping elements. We will grab eraser, bigger size of it and erase the lines that we don't need. If you want to work on these little parts right here, you are welcome to go and do that. We can go and maybe make them a little bit smaller by respecting the thickness of the lines that we have. When we have it on the top, let's go toward the bottom and create the little cut right here to create a nicely looking element. If you need more time to work on it, go and do what you need to do right here to create a very softly looking cut. When we have the result like that, let's go toward the previous layer, go into our layers panels firstly, going toward this layer that we have on the bottom, grabbing our eraser, and going toward this overlapping part that we don't need. Now when we have the result like that, let's get back to our layers, and mercy still layers together. So go into the layer on the top, taping on it, using the option merge down. Now, when we have it, let's go and create one more layer on top and with the same color, but with slightly smaller size of the brush, firstly, let's get back to our brush. For example, let's go with the size of 4%. We will go toward the top and we will make a little markdown right here. So in the middle, we have this markdown, and from this markdown, we will be going toward the bottom part with little segments like that. So hold the line at the end, go to the 182. If you need to adjust it. You can go and make it quite parallel to what you have on the outside part. When you have the first line, go again toward this little markdown that we've created on the top and continue creating the lines going right here in the middle. When we have it on one side, let's do the same onto the opposite side. Again, starting from our little markdown on the top, going down with our little curve, going to the editing tool if we need to adjust it right here. So for example, going in that way and trying to make it similar to what we have onto the outside little line. When we have it going toward the middle and creating one more line going inside. Again, holding it at the end and if we need to just it going toward our editing to and adjusting it from here. When we have the result like that, let's tap onto our screen with our brush, and let's go to our eraser and we will go and erase these parts that we have onto the bottom. Make sure that we are not going toward this land that we have on our put, we can get back to our las, grab this la that we have our little lines on and get it underneath the layer with our lines, so everything will be hidden right here. Now when we have it, let's get back to a brush and let's go toward this little parts that we have outside and let's add these lines here too. Go, for example, right here onto the right, repeating the overall curve right here, going toward the next side, and starting to add this little line here too. Going toward the top here, let's go and create two lines like that, so we will emphasize on this little rounded part, going toward the last element and adding something similar here too. So now when we have the result like that, let's make lt bit interesting by getting to our eraser first, and we will make some cuts into the lines to make some pattern. So firstly, let's go toward this little lines that we have inside. We will grab the bigger size of the eraser and we will go and make some pattern with our little cuts. So you can go and create the bigger cuts, the smaller parts on the cuts. You can go and create something in that way, try it out onto your lines and create something pecular. When you are done with adding these elements, little cuts toward the middle part, go toward the next lines that you have right here onto the sides and add the cut here too. You can go with the smaller size of the eraser with the bigger one, create some pattern that will look nice to you. When you have the result like that, let's get back to our brush. Go toward the size that we use for our outlines so 9% and we will go and add little spikes right here. Firstly, let's go over the top and we will be going and creating some random little lines like that. Going toward the outside parts firstly and adding a couple of details in the shapes like that. Going toward all of the elements, try not to overdo it at a few of them only, and go and create something in that way. When we add down with it, let's also go toward the inside parts and let's add little spikes here too. Firstly, if you want to add more little details toward these little outlines that you have, go and add them and create something pecular. Now when we have the result like that with the same size of the brush, let's go inside and let's go and add a couple of details here too. So go and add these V shapes like that, so we will create some of the spikes right here. Try not to go too close toward the middle part because we will have the facial features right here. So let's go and add a couple of details going like that. Maybe go on toward the bottom part and add these little details here too. If you have some overlapping elements, for example, right here, we can wrap our eraser and work on these connections by erasing the parts that we don't need. Let's go through all of them, and if we see that we need to add something or erase something, we will go and do it manually. And now when we have the result like that, let's go and add some beautifications. Firstly, we will get back to our lays and we can go and merge these two layers together by going to the layer on the top, tapping on it, merge down, and we will tap onto the plus icon to create a new layer on top. Now, you downloaded the brush that we can use right here. So let's go and find the folder with the simple stem brushes, and we will go toward the bottom and we will select this flower six little brush. When we have it, we will go to the size slider and set it to something around 13%. If you want to try it out in a bigger way or a smaller way, it's up to you. When you have the brush selected, let's get back to our color palette and select this red lines color. Make sure that you are on the right layer, and when we have it, let's go toward this right part toward the top and we will put a flower right here. Find the placement, if you want to go with a bigger size of this lement or smaller one, go toward the size slider and adjust it from here. Now, when we have the flower pleased, let's get back to the brush that we used before. So going again to our calligraphy folder, moonlan brush, going toward our layers and go into the layer that we have all of our lines at. Get in our eraser and we will need to go toward this part where we have our flower and erase all the overlapping parts, so everything that is inside the flower should be gone. So let's go with our eraser and very carefully erase everything, so everything will be looking nice. When we have the results like that, let's get back to our layers. Again, merging these two layers together, go into layer on the top topping, merge down, and we will create one more layer on top. Now, let's switch the color to face and we will go with slightly bigger size of the brush, for example, something around 30% and we will start to add artificial features. Let's start with the eyes. We'll go more toward the center so you can eyeball where the center is and we will go with a simple shape like that for our eye. Hold your line at the end. If you need to adjust it, go to the editing tool over the top, maybe work a little bit onto the curvature or the placement of this element. When you are satisfied with everything here, tap onto the screen to accept the changes, and let's go toward the opposite side to create the second I right here too. Repeat the shape, make it similar to what you have onto the opposite side. Adjust it through your editing mode if you need to make it a little bit smaller. If you need to adjust the placement, go and move it. You know how to do that, hold your Apple pencil and move it more towards the place that you want it to be. When you have the result like that, let's tap onto the screen. Let's make the size of the brush slightly smaller. For example, something around 20% and we will go above our little eyes and we will add little eyebrows like that. You can go with different shapes, you can go with different facial features. It's up to you. You are welcome to experiment. And when you are done with the eyebrows, let's go with slightly bigger size of the brush, and we will go and create the so we can try it a couple of times size wise. So for example, let's go with something around 50% and we'll go right between our eyes and we will create a little mouth going like that. The heart shape will create with the curve, we'll hold it at the end, and we'll go to our 18 tool if we need to adjust it. So adjust the placement. If you want to adjust the overall look, go toward these notes and adjust them too. Find the placement for this element, go a little bit lower, a little bit higher. It's up to you. Make it cute. When we have the results like that, let's tap onto our screen to accept the changes. And when we have the result like that, we will need to add one more detail over the top. So let's go toward our little color palette and change the colour to orange. We will get back to our brush, and we will go with slightly smaller size of the brush. We will get back to our layer where we have our mean lines, and we will go toward this maridan that we've created right here onto the top, and we will create a little shape of the allots right here. So hold it in the end, try to make it straightly looking, and when we have the result like that, we are done with our lines. So let's move on to our next part where we'll start to add the colors. 4. Base Colors: Let's begin this part firstly by going to our layers. And if you want, we can merge these two layers together or we can use the layer with our official features later on to add details very easily. So for example, let's go toward this layer that we have on at the bottom. So our main lines will tap on it, and we will use the option reference. Then we will be able to add the colors on the separate layers by using these lines. Let's create one more layer on top, and we will gram this layer and drag it underneath our layer with the lines. When we have the placement like that, let's get back to our color palette, and we will select the green main color. Let's go and recolor everything that belongs to our little cactus with this green color. One by one, we drag the colors and when we did it, let's get back to our list. Let's create one more layer on top, go into our color palette one more time and selecting the color with the title pot. With this color, we'll go toward the pots and we'll recolor everything that belongs to it. When we did it, let's get back to our leaves, creating one more layer on top, changing the color to pin create and one by one, we'll recolor all the petals that we have right here for our flour. Go like that, recoloring everything, and when we are done, let's change the color to orange one more time, and we will go toward the inside part of the flour, and we will recolor it too. So now when we have the result like that, let's work a little bit on our bottom part by adding some pattern to our little pots. Let's get back to our color palette, and let's select the color with the title highlights and we will go to our layers and go toward the layer with our little pots. Let's create one more layer on top. Let's tap on this layer and use the option clipping mask. That we will be able to stay inside only the colored areas. Now getting back to our brush, making the size of it a little bit bigger, and we can go and add some pattern to our little pot. So for example, let's go with something like that. Or if you want to experiment, you are welcome to create the pattern that you would like to see right here. So when we are done with the top part, let's go toward the bottom part of our pot and let's maybe add some stripes right here. So let's go like that. Go alone the whole shape. So we are going not with straight lines, but go a little bit with the angled lines. When we have the result like that, let's go toward bottom right here toward the side, we are using the editing tool if we need to edge out fi. So when we have the result like that, if you have some extra elements that you need to take care of, let's get back to our erasa and erase all the overlapping parts that we don't need for our pattern. Now, when we have the result like that, we are done with our basic colors. So let's go and start to work ta our shadows and highlights. 5. Shadows: Begin this part. Firstly, by going to our lays, we will go to the layer where we have our reference and our lines on. We will tap on it and we will turn on reference because we don't need it anymore. When we did it, let's get back to our little sheep that we have for cactus and we will start by adding a little shadow regia. Let's create one more layer on top. Let's tap onto this layer, and let's use the option clipping mask. We also will go toward the end icon and change the blending mode to multiply and set the aposte to something around 75 per set. When we did it, let's get back to our color palette, and we will select the color with the title reflection. Win this color and with slightly smaller size of the brush, let's go toward the bottom and more toward the right, and we will start to create a shadow here. Again, you can hold your line at the end, you can go to the editing tool right here to adjust the curvature of the elements. Let's go and make the shadow going toward the bottom part. When we have it tap onto the screen, make the size of the brush bigger, and let's go toward the bottom and manually add the color toward this area. So go like that, going toward the top, trying to make no gaps into our shadow. If you notice something, go and manually recolor these elements, let's go toward the top part two and add the color here. When you are done, you can go toward this little part and manually add the color toward this part to create some kind of the shadowy looking element like that. When we have it, let's get back to our smaller size of the brush, and let's go toward this part. Let's add the shadow toward the right and more toward the bottom. Going toward this little top part, going toward the bottom like that. We can create the shadows in different ways, but we will need to try to be consistent with them. So that means that we will need to position them mostly on one side. So when we have it, let's go toward this little part that we have right here. Let's step a bit from the like age right here, and we will start to create the shadow going in that way. Let's go and again, manually add the color inside. You can go with the bigger size of the brush, with the smaller size of the brush, it's up to you. Try to make the line first and then add the color in that way. And then we will go toward this little part on the opposite side and create a shadow here too. So let's go and add the shadow going like that. And then we also can go with slightly smaller size of the brush, and we will go toward one of the segments. For example, this one, and we will go and add the shadow to it too. So let's go and create the shadow going like that, repeating the overall shape that we have for this segment. So when we have it, we also can go and make sure that we have the shadow right here on the bottom part of our flowers, going underneath it and repeating the overall shape to create the shadow going in that way. We have the result like that, make sure that you like the amount of opacity. If you want to adjust it, you can go to your layers, tap onto the icon right here and adjust it from opacity slider. If you are satisfied with it, let's continue by going to this layer that we have right here onto the pot, and we will create one more layer here. Let's tap on it, clipping mask and icon multiply blending mode, opacity of around 60 or 70%. If we need to adjust it later on, we can get back to it. When we are done with it, let's get back to our color palette, and let's select the color with the title shadow. With this color, we will need to go first toward the back parts that we have on our pot, and we will go and put them in the shadow. If you see that the color is not right, it might be because our blending mode setting didn't work. Let's tap onto our N icon and change our blending mode to multiply back, and then we'll continue adding our shadows here. Let's adjust the size of the brush and we will go toward this little parts, create the curve firstly, and then manually add the color inside. We can go along this whole shape and make the shape closed and then drag and drop the color in that way. Then when we have it, let's go underneath the whole shape that we have right here and we will create a big shadow right here. Following the direction that we have on the top, creating something like that, manually adding the color toward this part. Then continue by going toward the bottom toward this little part that we have right here and again creating the shadow here. Let's go around like that, add the color inside when we are ready. Make sure that all of the lines are looking nice. If you need to zoom in your canvas and manually go to some places, go and do what you need to do. When we have the results like that, decide onto the level of apace whether you like it or not. If you want to change it, go back to your layers, tap onto the icon, and adjust it from here. For example, let's go with something around 75% and when we have it, let's continue by going to our flower. Again, creating one more lay here, tapping, clipping mask, tapping on the N icon. Setting the multiply blending mold right here. Again, going with something around 80% of opacity, using the same color that we used for this shadow that we have on the bottom and going toward the bottom part of our petals, going through all of them, and starting to add the shadows here too. Either by going and rigging the colors when you have the line that doesn't have any gaps right here, doing it in that way, we're going manually and adding the colors manually. Let's go through all of the petals and also toward the bottom part of our little middle parts, going toward these parts and adding our shadows. When we have the result like that, one more time, decide the opacity. If you want to change it, go and change it. So find the level that works for you, maybe 85%, make it a little bit more pop up. When we have the amount of opacity that works for us, we are done with our shadow, so let's move on to the highlights part. 6. Highlights & Final Touches: The highlights, firstly, let's again start from the bottom. We'll go to this layer where we have our shadow onto our cactus. We'll create one more layer here, taping, selecting clipping mask, go into the icon, and we will change the blending mode to overlay. Let's also change the color to orange firstly, and then we will get back to our brush library. We'll go to the airbrushing folder and we'll select soft blend brush. We'll set the opacity of this brush to something around 35% or so and we will make the size of the brush pretty big. We'll go to the opposite side from our shadows and we will start to add the secondary color here, maybe even with the bigger size of the brush. We are trying to make a very smooth transition right here between the colors, so we will need to blend the colors nicely and we will need to go toward all of these elements that we have right here on the opposite size that we have for our shadow and add this little highlights in this color. When we are done with it, decide on the amount of opacity. So if you need to adjust something, go toward the layers, tap onto the O icon, and adjust the opacity onto this layer. Everything should be blending nicely. And when we have the result like that, let's create one more layer on top, tap on it and use the option clipping mask. We also will go to the N icon and change the blending mode to add, and then we'll get back to our color palette to select the white color. Also we'll get back to our brush library to this brush that you downloaded with the title scatter Confetti solid. Let's select it and we will go toward this little pie that we've added with the second color, and we will go and add some little peculiar details like that. You can go and add very much of them. You can go only to the elements that we have in the middle or to all of them and add these additional little sparkles like that. If you are not satisfied with the amount of apace right here, if they are too bright, we can get back to our as tab on the A icon and adjust the apastu right here. We need only a glimpse of these elements, so they are not the main course right here. When we have the result like that, let's continue by creating one more lay on top and we'll tap on it and we will use the option clipping mask one more time. Let's change the blending mode to overlay and we will keep the same white color, but we will go again to our brush library and we will go to the calligraphy folder and choose monoline brush. Let's add the actual highlights the same way as with these little lighter elements, we'll go to the opposite side from our shadows and we will add little highlights in the shape of the dots, little lines like that to go into some of the places and add in these little elements. We will go towards all of the parts that we have right here onto our cactus and we will add the highlights here. Let's go toward all of these little elements and add our little additional sparkles. When we have the result like that, we also will go and add a bit of the reflection toward our shadow. Let's go and do it in that way. Going again to our layers, creating one more layer on top, tapping on it, and using clipping mask. Again, going to the N icon and changing the blending mode to overlay and then changing the color to reflection. Now with this color, we will go toward the parts where we have our shadows and we will start to add the reflections here to go closer to the edge and repeating what we have for our lines right here. These elements doesn't need to be very much seen, so we will go and create something going like that. Let's go through all of these elements that we have our shadows on and we will go and create our little reflections. So now when we are done with it, we are adding them only onto the right part. If you want to go toward the left and maybe try to add them here too, you can try to do that, but probably don't do that. When we have the results like that, let's continue by going to our lays. And again, we will continue by going to the next layer. So let's go to our put to this layer where we have our shadow. Let's create one more lay here, tap in using the option Clipping mask, tap in on the icon, and we will select the overlay blending mode. Then we will get back to our color palettes and we will select the white color or if you want, you can try with the highlight. So select one of these colors, and let's go again toward the opposite side that we have our shadows on, and we will create a little highlights here. So going toward the top like that, toward the edge, creating a little highlight like that. If you can go with different shape, if you want to create something else, you are welcome to do it. If you want to add a little highlight toward the bottom part to you are welcome to do. Decide ta the opacity level of this layer, go to the opacity slider, adjust it to your liking, make it not too bright. When we have it, let's go toward our lays and we will again create one more layer on top, tap on it, clipping mask, or the blending mode, and choosing our reflection color. Let's go toward the shadow part and we will add a bit of the reflection here too. So again like that, starting to add these little additional elements, very subtle. When we have the results like that, let's continue by going to our next layer. So our next layer is our layer with the flour. Let's create one more layer here, tap on it using the option clipping mask, and again, changing the blending mode to orlay. Let's change the colour to white firstly, and with the smaller size of the brush, let's go towards the opposite side from our shadows. And let's start to add our little highlights right here. Want to go toward the middle part and add the highlights here to you are welcome to do it. When we have the result like that, let's get back to our layers, created one more layer on top, tapping, clipping mask, changing blending mode to overlay and changing the color to reflection. With a smaller size of the brush, let's go toward this part where we have our shadows, and let's go and add a little highlights to them too. Now, when we have the results like that, we are mostly done. Let's go and work a little bit on the artificial features. Firstly, let's get back to our layers, and let's go toward our layer with artificial features. We will create one more lay on top, tap on it, and use the option clipping mask. Let's change the color to pin cred. We'll go with slightly bigger size of the brush, and we will go and create a little tank onto the bottom. Going like that and very boldly creating the shape, you can go with a bigger size, with a smaller size, it's up to you. When you have the result that you like, let's switch the color to white. We'll go with very small size of the brush of 4%, and we'll go inside the ice right here, and we will put little highlights right here. You can go randomly. You can go with bigger size, smaller size. It's again up to you. You can make something different right here. When we have the result like that, let's go and also add the checks. So firstly, let's switch the color to pin cret one more time, and we will go underneath our layer with our facial feature. Let's create one more layer here. Let's grab our brush. Let's go with the bigger size of the brush, and we will go right here underneath the ice and we will put our little dots for the checks. You can go again with the bigger size with different placement with anything that you want to change right here. If the color is too bright, we can go again to our last, tap onto the icon, and adjust the opacity right here. For example, let's go with something around 85% of opacity. And when we have the results like that, we are done with our illustration, but let's go and add a couple of details to the background. Firstly, let's change the color to reflection and we will get back to our layers and create one more layer. We will need to drag this layer underneath everything that we have, so we are holding it and dragging it down. When we've positioned it in that way, we will go with the smaller size of the brush underneath our little pot and we will create a shape of the ellipse. Hold it in the end, hold one of your fingers on the screen to make sure that you are creating it in a horizontal way. When we have it, let's dragon drop the color inside the shape. Let's adjust the opacity of this layer by tapping onto the end icon onto our layer with the shadow, going toward the opacity and making it at something around 30%, 30, 40%. We have it, let's also create one more layer on top and let's go and add some additional elements outside. For example, let's go to this folder that you downloaded, simple stamps. We can go, for example, with this flower six full. We can change the color to pink, go towards some of the empty spaces right here, and we will go with different sizes of the brush and add a couple of details right here. Also can change the color to orange, change the brush to something sparkle. So for example, sparkle thin full, and we can go and add some sparkles here, too. If you want to add more details or different elements, you can explore this folder that you downloaded and create something peculiar. And when we have the result like that, when we are satisfied with everything here, we are done with our illustration. Thank you for watching this class.
