Transcripts

1. Introduction To Inking In Photoshop: Hey, guys, I'm back with my new class this time. This did you delinking info to shop? I'm sure Lanie, your friend and guide and you'd run Scotia today will be achieving something like this from the very basic sketch that we do on a sketchbook by hand. On also about teaching you from the very basics off Russia's and photo shop on I will be giving you guys few ideas about how to use dependable from If you are a beginner even in that and don't know how to tackle with those don't way, we will do this together in this class to achieve something like this, sketching your own handmade sketches in photo shop to us. Use something pro feeling if you are a graphic designer Oh, an artist or whether you're a bigot or a pro or here just for fun and exploration that discloses for you so shall sketch ready on and roll out to let's get started 2. Learning The Brush Basics: So, guys, let's start with the basic things that we're gonna use in this for thinking Onda I'm using for them here. I'm gonna goto windows on shoes you can hear, see brush and brush presets. So I will use thes both panels, So just click on them. If you don't have these, you can see here his brush recent and this one is stub brush. If you don't see these things, guys on your screen just goto windows on. Then click on brush Anguish Research spooked. Also here, select a brush tool from the toolbar. You can see if you can see different options, but you use the basic brush tool on See here. The brush presets is now active. But if I change to any other random graph random tools, then this is not active. So let's choose are getting brush to it. So here we can see there are many default precious. I'm here on the basic telegraphy around stiff brush so you can see the other having different properties. I have opened already a document off Clancy more. It could be of any size. A three or a four depends on you guys because we're just doing the basic practices, so it's up to you in the layer Bannon. You click on the this creator newly riken and create a new layer of off the background, and now we'll be using the brush tool to see how it reacts with each brushes starting from the very forced brush, you can change the size here in the brush presets. Andi, see how it's so soft round, and this one is the hard one. There are many different ground wishes to, but I'm going to use thes calligraphy brushes. You can see the round strip rush you can see. That's how each and every brush is different from the other. Discuss the richness to the photo shop because we can just all toe each and every the same looking brushes are even somewhat different with each other when it comes to the texture. Or we might. It comes to the the lines, the roughness or the smoothness. So there a lot off things that we can you can go ahead and think off all those and practice more. You can also practice by how does make things lines how to smoothly move your brushes? But no, I'm going to select this around point stiff brush. You can see this other properties here, that is. Brush this Aiken. Andi, if you have in the brush presets to there is this bucket off brushes. Click on that. You open the same brush panel so you can see there are many, many properties over here which we can play of it. Andi In those in this, you can see in the basic brush shape only there is round blonde round Find round golf on many others. You can see I'm choosing e for each one for each one. It is just changing. It's going on changing its extras its style When playing with the bristles, you can see how it is reacting when going to the 100% and when it was zero When it is like going the middle of the things so just go one play with like this. And also I will make you guys look at this is when the sickness is very, very low. Like one person. Those edges are very capering like they are going narrower adages on Once we make it take, then it's changing. So this is how the Russians are reacting on the different scale, different qualities. So we're gonna make a lot off things we can easily use. Also, you can see here guys spacing how it's like even it's on with a two person. If I be, If I increase the spacings, then there is like they are very ride flowing. And if I mean minimize the Sipes basing it like it's no very packed on very full. So, like, this is how the brushes are made off. You can think that how we can use brushes in a much different by using the same default for establishes now going to shape dynamics you can see here everything is off for this kind of brush. But we have this angle, judo and how. What is changing in this is the angle, the edges angles are changing and they're making either rough or on a 0% is much smoother. Right now, I'm gonna use thes rushes for drinking purpose. So I would like to have a very smooth brush only. So let it be on 0% now going to transfer. Click on that. You can see some other properties are now on like capacities. You do and flows. Udo let us see whether they're making any changes over here for this kind of fresh. I think they are not having any changes, but we can. We will learn about these over city and flows you door in further if you are using pen or become tablet. But I'm using the mouse, so orders not walking heel. But if you are using any pressure's on like any pen tablets, then you can go with that now to see how it is reacting with the transfer button on. As you can see, guys, it is hardly any difference. It is making so self no use right now. So let it be. You can make it. Oh no, Make it off. It's different on you girls. See how if, with a thickness high, like 100% Howard's changed into a very hard and ground brush, going to see how this is going on? I'm just practicing a few who make you guys look at how differently it is. Reacting with each change in bristles is making such a lot off changes like we don't need toe resize. We can make just a different fresh. It is also having a very great own than the black. So here is how we can use the different brushes just by changing the A properties. In this basic brushes, we can just make a lot off changes, make some new gracious on. Do you guys can come up for them with them for thinking. 3. Understand Line & Spce: in this. Listen, I'm gonna talk about some different textures on spacings that align this guy just fruit with the lines you can see your in the force pick we're having you having all such a white and black space. You guys conceive a using the same words black strips, but it but it different gaps. This is making us think that it is. The plane is going toe into one direction either from narrower toe the writer fighter to the narrower. So this is making ah, look off a feel off space on a now the Hoover. This you can see it is ah, different use off different black strips off different black words lines. So this is making, like a bore Lord antenna and the nuttiness. Then it just like to parlor on. Then there is one narrow So this is like making us look at smooth surface. This is not making a much depth they, you know, wearing. But it is making ah, good feel off lines are good feel of textures. Now, talking about these images you can see like each and every face is having a different feelings. Some is having smiling Some is there are. Indeed some is having the right multi open. Some are having dengue cried your drops. So how differently the lines are used. Edgy board blocks There are many different, kind off lines. Some are having maximum, you can see are having their tapering ages because, well, like they are depicting the feeling off, Make me by hand as we do better handed somewhere. It's very with a very good pressure somewhere. It's like, very low with the pressure. So something like that and we are gonna show you that feeling via we are thinking our characters further. 4. Practice Session : So is starting before we jump into the our basic class project or something like that before, and I would like to use on this tractor shoot that is level in the project resource. Andi, it isn't that heavy. You former just drag and drop in the photo shop screens. Andi, Now you can see their friend things like base work, straight line, Gove lines and free from art. So starting from the very base book, I will be using the specter suit for Travel Ben Jewels. So just click the pen dune from the Tula on. Zoom in on your shoot. You can see we are having the spacewalk with a basic straight line. So once I click with a pendant on the screen, we're having just that one point, and we can free to click anywhere on the screen. If I click here at random, it's joined as a line. So if I want a straight line, I'm gonna click it in a straight away so that it's there is a straight line. Are if I hold shift on click anywhere near it'll horizontal, then it is gonna make it a horizontal line. Basically, the shift it is making us straight line on the few angles. Like zero 30 90 60. So you can see we're having a shrewd line now. But this is just about where is the line? Here? There is no black line. So how could I get it? There is no new layer overhears for that. I'm having the base. Then there's new. Create a new low. Then we're having a new layer over here on with this spot. If I want to make it pain with a black or something like that, how are you gonna do that? Don't worry. Just firstly, goto the If I If I just do a controls that are under or anything like that, it is just removing the pat. So don't worry. We are gonna do this with the pen to lonely Seletto Bendel. Click anywhere on the screen, right click on Jews stroke. But there are three options. Make selection, Phil. Bad stroke back. If I Giusti mixed selection then just saying no pixels were selected because it was a Stradling. So yes, right one Close it on underlying Andi Use a stroke. But in this you're having tool saying brush. There are many Jews here but I'm gonna use the brush tool before saying Okay. Heard. Cancel and then go to your brush brushed with a simple brush tool from the properties over here. See which brush you are using. I'm gonna use this basic round point stiff. Have a look on which kind of what size you're gonna use. Thank you. I'm gonna use Ah, like 17 pixels is quite good enough. Go to Penn Tool again. Right. Click on the screen, then stroke. But I'm using the fresh and who don't agree. You can see there's the outline on the stroke on the but and this control legs to delete your path again. I'm gonna make a straight line this time. I'm wanting first of properties off the brush, making the brush ticker to go on. So again, go back to depend dude, right click stroke mats. Okay. So you can see this is now well, much took lane. But how to make this one hazy or you can see tapering at edges once again. You guys, we go straight line then go to the brush before you click anything else? Check the properties if you're good and working back to the tool off Bendel's on, then click here The stimulate pressure. Andre, look, you can see the magic. It has just turned your plane round brush to the brush open that we use by hand, like it is having the tapering edges. Then there are the feel off pressure. Once we're using it, I'm changing the sickness again to make it much vital. Andi using ah again making us red line right? Click through part with this room. Late pressure. You can see the Stamatis. Very take one. So how does basic looking taking the center tapering at the edges? That is what we want for our missing thinking, I hope My eyes You have understood that thing off. How we're achieving that now, Going to straight lines. We have all read it on the basic horizontal. So I'm gonna use this one though street, but at an angle so you can see how easily if you are. If you want an easy way, you can just look anywhere and then hold shift and make it on a basic angle off 30 or 60 degrees. Then, before the stroke party changed size of the brush. I ain selected Bendel stroke parts without the stimulator pressure was given the street line from edged, which this was the street lines. But no what for ghosts for call. Just click on that one single point and hold shift, Andi, or you can do these, even hold shift. Then now don't leave the tool. Just drag it, click anywhere and don't leave. That will just drag it like I like this style of goal. It is giving any angle any way you can goes and see how this moving and making an angle or a cough for that making a line right click stroke part without any stimulate pressure. Just heard. Okay, control legs to delete the, but it's now in a good way. And for the A vocal, if I hold shift on group moving, it will winner angle just on the basic angles and without any ship, it is moving toe totally smoothly. So with a saying they stormed into well light organizing one speak click okay with the brush. Then we gonna can't change the sickness like a normal line can do so for that, I didn't make the same path on brother Different size, off brush just hurt with the stroke pants on you can change it. You can see how I made a totally go smooth bad with the pen tools hit control X for the leading the path. I hope that you guys are also on the same page while practicing with distracter sheet about the pendulum. What if I'm gonna change this to the other color line? Just click on your color, Aikens in the toolbar on changed the color deal like I did from black to blue Now right click stroke pat with a brush only so you can see a strong into a blue lying rather than a Blackman. Now that is its stone for the free form art you guys have done from the base work to a straight line to the guidelines. Now use all these for making any free form art you spent only not the free form Ben Blue But you can see how it iss reacting with the each golf also, if you don't want to go before like here I didn't want this angle one I want a street So just all you can see this kind off friend July gun on your screen at that Nord Click on that now there is no handles. There is just one handle for the other one. So you can see if I cook anywhere with the old Airstream. It's minus ing off. The angles are the handles. So it's easy to move now Photo with that single like For now, I don't want any angle for the photo, so I just hold ordered click. It's vanished. Now we're trying it with the earlier known and just moving to see which call is looking nice. I hope this is good. Just right. Click stroke, but with the brush with the same properties than hurt. Okay, this is control Lex. Again, I'm quickly making a new free form. But to make you guys understand, how do we can't even fill bat right? Click and Phil Pat here you can choose foreground background color pattern, right, Black. Agree. Right now I'm going to use color on new below that I would like from here. You can also change the blending more opacity. What? I'm making its default on right now. So I had Okay, you can see we have just simply for the bad. By using the pendulum, only we can also use the make selection with the Bendel Ondo. I don't want any federal, so it's OK on if I want to paint it in other earlier I can just make a new layer on selection is stood one there. So we just heard Horthy. So just now, Selective Pain Walker Tune on. Click it or Dio we have filled the back. Also, it is an annual Leo. So I hope, guys, you haven't answered the basic fundamentals off using a Bendel in a photo shop. 5. Inking Basics: I'm having few sketches over here that you can use for references. And we can get these easily from the present resource tab. I have just drag and drop one off those in the photo shop with the document size off a tree and you can see with the dragon drop. It is in the new Leo party fall. So just right. Click double click over there and you name it as originally made. Yeah. Are you going, Rene Middle sketch. So now from that Leo panel only click under creator New Leo on change the name from the layer one. Do the thinking. Oh, so, um lower off, Phil. Person off the original image on their sketch layer. Hey, I'm giving it toe 30 or 29%. So this is looking good for now. Now what? Do the rush to check which Russia using? I'm using the round stiff round point. Steph, brush with the very basic properties. Or you can see the four properties that is also already there from the photo shop. So you were to go with the thinking, go to inking Leo on drumming on your sketch. Just outline the But that is already moved in the sketch like this and starting from my head. Are you going to stay here and think like you are doing it from your pin? Just making a smooth girl with a mental holding all as I don't want the angled. Want to be here? Yeah. Giving a bendable here like this. I want one off my stroke to be like this. Only till here. Only. So right leg stroke. Pat Andi, click on Stupid eight Pressure, then hood. Okay, Hopes it's in the blue below. So go to see check which they were having in the foreground. If it's not black, you can just get d from your keyboard and still followed. So I do the same stroke, but with a stream blood pressure. So another stood black hit control eggs to delete the But just think how you're gonna trace it or how would make on each and every stroke. If you are making it with you're been in your hand. So just Reza go out like that And after each straw Goto's right leg and cyclic stroke pants . Andi, it's done. This is a very time taking under dictator process. But it will help you Ah, lot to increase your richness off the sketch. So I'm just increasing the process for you guys. And you can follow up for praising Yuri Majors simultaneously, - once done with the basic outline off the hairs from the edges. So now I'm going to make the slider outline go for the band. You can see I'm using the very full far beyond. Points not very narrow, are not very near because it will be if neo it will be very edgy and right now click on the stroke without stimulate pressure. It okay, you can see it's a complete full line from a storage similarly, and making a few more strokes to complete the band as I'm using the far beyond point so that it is giving very nice and smooth goal that we want now coming back to Well, here's this time her here's on her face. So in the similar way that have already done for the hair ages. So I'm gonna press it out. Right leg throw pot with the stream Late pressure hitting. Okay. Make sure you guys are gracing according to the GAO, each and every call because as you did, it would be the sketch betters would be a result would be very nice. - So you can see am also using the same stroke style for her neck outline on her face. Edges here. Right books stroke, but with similar pressure. Green hit OK and control extra Really outline or read the part. Same for the from the other side. So we are done with the basic outlining off our sketch. Now, as a off the original sketch, you can see it's giving a definition to our face like it's coming up nicely. So now, long in turning on the original sketch here, it's trying to paint the eyes, lips and nose. So starting from her, I brew as I bruise up whole connected parts. So I'm gonna make itto complete shape rather than making us to a stroke. And for that I'm right. Click and select Phil Batt. This time I'm going to use foreground color as having already the black color and four round with the 100% opacity hit. Okay, we're in the same letter off thinking so just control X 40 leading the pat for her knows I'm gonna use the stroke, not a film about so just right click stroke, but with apps similar preshow head. Okay for her lips, I'm gonna use a stroke, but because it was having different bold and tennis around far upper lip, I'm working. Wanna or love it with other robots? You guys can do it for this kind of trick for using much bolder. Look, somewhere on your sketch, you can over love it with a multiple strokes by tracing it again and again. Or you can just use a different thickness off the British for her cheeks. Also, I'm using the same properties and stroking it out. Now it's stone for years doing the same process for her. Do deals like bad? It's giving a nice outline for her years to now . It's turned for my eyes. I'm doing it in different bars like stroking from Laredo and somewhere some bill. It's from left, depending on the thickness where I want for her corner off the I. I'm gonna use a complete apart from computer shape so that this is one a week. Me, Phil Pat under the back heard okay, also for her, I lives forced for the base off the island. I'm gonna make it a complete apart from the last one to the 1st 1 Something like this, Andi Father for each and every either I'm gonna trace it singularly and making it a stroke. But make sure that you are not doing it is a straight line. There should be a bench, so that natural are very slight. But there must be any bend in the path so that it looks very natural for the eyes. So creates, Joan. They're nicely doing some doing some same things for her. I force ordeal Eastern control expert reading the path once turned with the stroke Philpott so that we can make under the bath on the same layer. You're staying for eyeballs as this is not a complete sphere or complete circle. So I'm gonna race it in parts like somewhere here. Also, I want some details or some bold lines near her upper side. So again, I'm dressing it seem in the same day so that it's just double up there and hence we get a bowl line. As you can see, there is some reflection. If you wasn't also used this thing as on the reflection the pupil over there in the eyeball , so that you guys have. Ah, realistic. I You can see how I'm pressing out the reflection, giving it a proper definition as a now playing for the few bills. I'm gonna make it a complete shape and fill it with the lack alot one size whom out? You can see how nice it is looking on doing the same things for her second I as it is much more in the shadow off. Ah, here. So it would be looking something like this. So we're here with the basic Anqing. 6. Inking on Details & Final Tips: and now banking on do deals don't know. We are done with the this thinking, outlining and everything. But you can see with the original Skase there are much details. If I don't offered the reduce are vanishing. If they don't know Don you can see on this time you're gonna result that only using the bend would starting from a hair band, you can see there are mushy Leo's post There is a kitty, Andi, you're gonna trace it with only go to the brush to see which properties are you using? I'm using the round stiff brush and also as I am in in King Lear, I don't want the details and inking base to be in one layer. So just click on Great and Yulia 100 meters in King V. Gilles, I think this size off brush is good enough to start with. So going to Ben doing again, guys, as I have already done the base sinking. And I've already told you that we should be using the pen tool as the way we're using a pen . How we air one a stroke it as I was. I could not make this whole kitty from the single line by holding a pencil or pen in my hand. So in the same way, I'm not gonna make it whole, you know, same shape or some plead shape. So just tracing the lines according to the strokes, all her years, head and cheeks with each and every details. So yet we are ready with the kitty. Now they are much different videos on the here's friends are hair band, which we can inbuilt in our thinking. For this, I'm gonna use our different kind off rush so he'll go to the brush presets. You can even go from windows for the brush presets in deal that has seen the four fresh is . You guys can have a look on these Spencer brushes, so I'm gonna use the basic pencil brush. This one is struggles. Yeah. This one is the Ben Soud rush, so I think, but it is too low. All right. Gonna go for this one? Yeah. This is looking much nice. So check Let us check on the brush brush properties. You can see this is even having a lot off explorations to be done. So let us quickly have a look. Which kind off edge or shape I would like. I think I would go with the basic point size only that is pretty much nice. Every other properties are good enough to go or a little angles huge over the ship Dynamics I would like to add on now we are good to go with this. You can use the pen preshow if you are using any tablets. I haven't eliminated eyes off because I'm using a mouse. So we're good to go with this kind of fresh for inking going to delay a in the layer goto the ink in details Select Ben Do Andi Chris on the vertical and horizontal burns smoothly so that it looks good on stroke pat with distribute ratio and control X So here it is. We're having the deal brush with a different texture. Also at is it as this sketch is off a girl and that would always be the treaty. So I'm gonna use the thinking style on the course or on the bends in the similar way, like making it all bulge are making it proper around so that it's giving all handoff depth so quickly phrasing out her hair band like that also with the horizontal bends. Yeah, he'll the d complete than thinking. No, I would like to add some shadows on our thinking only to give it a good definition to our sketch. For that, I'm gonna use the similar mental. I'm going to use the same mental. Andi, you can see the neck would obviously have some shadow as the fees. The light from the face would always be in reverse as a shadow to the neck. So making a little triangle over there like this and right click feel bad with the black color Only I'm gonna choose the opposite it this time to the 10% hit. Okay, so here it iss very little shadow, but it looks very natural. You can think off were more shadows could also the like. Either they could be or fall on her face from hairs are like the spot. I'm gonna make it little triangle over here, below the years on her hair, I will make it a complete but again a complete shape, joining edge to edge right click on Phil. But the stand or positively, I think to Ada's 20% to see how it goes Hit. Okay. Yeah, this is giving Ah, nice Stepped off shadows like some very it is very dog somewhere to the light of one, as that here is there's obviously that will be a dark shadow should be going on there. So in the similar way, I'm gonna make few more shadows here and there on her face near the hair strands so that it gives the truly looked out of the hair.
