Transcripts

1. Introduction: Hello, everyone. I'm Uni, and in this class, we are going to draw this cute Kawhi illustration of an adorable leaf in procreate. During this class, you'll get familiar with a lot of useful features like quick shape tool, symmetry tool, liquefied tool, clipping masks, and blending modes, and learn 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. Scheme: Begin our class by first deciding what kind of canvas we are going to be using. Today we're using a standard square canvas from Procrit with pixel width and pixel heights to 2048 pixels. DPI are at 300 and our color profile is set as SRGB with this loan number. When it's all done, let's it down. Let's take a look at our new Canvas and before it starts to work onto our illustration. Let's first go under the project and reso Stop and download all the materials that we need for this class. While needed it, let's continue our preparational part by going to a brush library. We'll go to the calligraphy folder and we will choose monoline brush. Also will need to adjust the brush slightly so all of our lines look very smooth. Let's tap on the brush, go inside the brush studio. On the left, we'll go under stabilization, and we'll be playing with amount of streamline and amount of stabilization. You can set the settings the same way as you see them right now onto your screen. You can go to the draw pad and try it out right here. If you want to tweak something here, so it will be easier for you to work with, you are welcome to go and do that. And when you are ready, let's hit down over our top right. Now when we are done with a brush, let's go to our layers, and we will go to the background color layer. We will go to the color palette that you downloaded and we also will go under palette on the bottom and the card on the top to see the colors names. Let's select the first color with the title background, and when we did it, let's go to our actual color palette. Again, go under palette on the bottom and under card on the top, and we will select some contrast colors. For example, let's select the mouth color. And with this color, we will go to our slider with the size, and we will set it to something around 6%. Now when we are all set, let's create a little scheme that will help us to build up our illustration. Firstly, we'll go to our canvas and with one line, we will create a shape like that. It is a straight line. We will hold it at the end, and we also will hold one of our fingers on the screen to make sure that the line is vertically straight. When we have it, let's lift up everything, and let's make sure that this line is in the center. To do that, we will go to our Aoki on the top plats. We will go under uniform method, and we will also go under snapping and turn on snapping into the settings. When we did it, let's get back to our canvas. We will hold our app up until a samblin space, and we'll be looking for two orange lines, one vertical and one horizontal. That way we will know that we are right at the center, and when we have the result like that, straightaway, let's go to our list and create one more layer on top by tapping on the plus icon. On this new layer, let's go so word our canvas, and with one line, we will create another shape, and this time it will be a perfectly rounded circle. So hold your ship in the end and hold one of your fingers on the screen, adjust the size slightly. So for example, let's go with something like that, and we will lift up everything, and we will again make sure that this ship is in center by going to our Ake first. Again, use a uniform method using snapping and we will need to position the shape onto this orange line. So we are aligning it vertically onto the middle part and we also will need to touch the shape on the top with the line that we have on the previous layer. So when we have the result like that, let's one more time go straight to our layers, and we'll get back to our previous layer where we have just the line like that. Onto this layer, we will add a couple more lines right here that will help us to build a so we want to create the veins later on and the overall shape of the leaf, and we want it to be quite symmetrical. So let's use one option that procreate house to help us with it. When this layer is selected, we will go to the range icon over the top left. We will go under Canvas, and we will toggle drawing guide. Now, we also will need to go under 80 drawing guides, and on the bottom, we will use the option symmetry. When we have one line like that, we are not touching anything here, we are not moving it anywhere. This is at the center and we will heat down over our top right. Now when we have everything in that way, let's go to where this line that we have right here, and we will eyeball where the center is. We will go and put a little markdown like that in the center, and then we will go slightly lower than this markdown and create another markdown right here. Now, going on from this little markdown on the bottom, from it, going up and creating another line on in that way. We we need to hold it at the end and we can adjust the angle right here. Let's go with something not too wide open. We'll go with something like that, and with this line, we are not touching the edges of our circle. Let's create something in that way and we will continue by going again to this little markdown in the middle and we will go with it toward the sides and create another set of lines. We will go to the edge with this line and we will again adjust the angle right here to make it not that open. So for example, let's go with something like that, and when we have the result like that, going toward the bottom and we will create a couple more lines right here. Again, starting from the center, creating another line that will touch the edges of our circle and creating something like that. When we have it one more time going towards this little center part and creating another set of lines. If you need to try it out one more time, go and do what you need to do to create this shape. Again, with this part, we can touch our line or give it a little bit of a smaller shape by creating something in that way. Now when we have the shape like that, we have everything for our skin. So let's go to our layers and do the following. First, we'll merge these two layers together, so we will need to go to the layer on the top, tap on it, and use the option merge down. Now to make it a little bit more transparent, let's tap on our icon. We will go to the opacity slider to go with it toward the left and reduce the opacity. We still need to see what's happening here, but it doesn't need to be very bright. Now, when we have the result like that, let's tap on this layer, and let's create one more layer on top. Now, when we have it, we will go toward our color palette and we will switch the color to green men Wi this color with the same brush and with the same size of the brush, we will start to work on our leaf. 3. Base for Leaf & Cat: One more time, make sure that we are using assisted drawing onto this layer. We will need to tap onto this new layer and use the option drawing assist. And then let's start building up our little leaf. You can go and start to do it by going to the middle part right here where we have our little markdown, and we can go and start to create the leaf going in that way. So we are connecting the shade that we have on the bottom with the line that we have on the can hold our line at the end and we can go to the Edit two on the top. When we are at the edited mode, you can see we have some notes right here, so we can go to them. We can hold our Apple pencil at the node and adjust the overall shape that we have a here. You can play a bit with the overall shape that you want to create for your leaf and when you are satisfied with it, let's tap on our screen with our Apple pencil or with our finger to accept the changes. We have the first shape for our leaf, let's go along the whole shape along all the lines that we have right here and let's connect the top parts with the bottom part. Again, we are starting to create half of the circles or half of the ellipses right here. You can go full weight toward the middle or only create the elements on the top. Again, use all the tools that we used before. You can go with the editing tool, you can go with holding your Aval pencil at the end of the line or go manually and create everything that you want to see right here. Again, you can go with different shapes if you want to, you can spend some time here and create something that you would like to see right here. When we are done with the second pair of leaves, let's go towards the middle part and let's write something similar here too. Again, use editing tool on the top to create maybe a softer look for your elements, create a more open curve and then continue by going to the bottom and finishing up with this leaf. Also, make sure that you are creating nice connections on the top. If you have some gaps, you will need to go manually and adjust them. If you have some very pointy elements here, the same way, you can go and manually adjust them too. When you are done with the next leaf right here, go to the next one and create the next segment. So continuing to create our leaves, trying to connect them nicely, adjusting them through our editing tool over the top and adjusting the overlook of our elements. Going to the last one that we have right here, the line that we have onto our scheme, and finishing up by creating another leaf right here. Again, making sure that we have nice connections between the parts, go on to all of these little tips that we've created and making sure that they look pretty fine. When we have the shape like that, let's also go to where this line that we have in the middle and we will step a bit from the middle and we will create a line going down in that way. You can make it thicker, you can make it thinner, it's up to you. Hold your line at the end with the Apple pencil and put one of your fingers on the screen to make the shape vertical. When we have the result like that, let's go to the bottom and let's create the continuation of the shape in the shape of the little curve. Now when we have the result like that, now it's time to go inside with our color and edit to these places. So let's go to our icon with the color. Let's drag it to one of the areas, and then we will continue filling right here on the top. So tap onto this option and go to all of these areas and start to tap on them to recolor everything that you have right here. If you have some smaller areas and you maybe want to try to go to them with your Apple pencil, straightaway, you are welcome to go and do that manually add the color inside. Don't forget to recolor these little parts, and when you are ready, let's tap onto our check mark on the top near our color draw. Let's take a look at everything and decide whether we maybe want to go and adjust something. For example, we can go manually to some of the areas and make them a little bit more rounded. So if you want to adjust something here, let's spend some time go onto the places that you want to adjust and adjusting them. Also, if you already have the shape and maybe you want to try out something different, maybe sculpt a bit of a different shape. We can do it very easily by going to the magic Q two over the top left and we will use the option liquefy. On the bottom, we will use the option push and the size slider. This is for the size of the brush that we're going to be pushing with. So we can select it and we can go to some of the areas and sculpt them and adjust something here if we want to adjust something. So if you want to do that, you are welcome to spend some time here and adjust the shapes to your liking. When you are satisfied with everything here, let's hit our magic O tool twice to get away from the smote one more time, if you already did it alte bit or if you want to go to some other areas and adjat them or maybe make them el bit more clean, you are welcome to go manually with your brush and with your eraser to these places and adjust them. And when you are satisfied with everything here, let's continue by going to our layers, and we will hide our layer with the skin because for now, we don't need it. Let's tap onto this check mark and hide this layer. When we have the result like that, let's go and start adding some beautifications for our leaf. We will go and create one more layer on top of the main shape for our leaf and we will go and add the secondary color here. We will create some of the gradient. Let's tap onto this new layer and we will use the option clipping mask. That we will be able to stay inside the shape of our leaf. When we did it, let's go and switch the color to yellow and with this yellow color, we also will go to our brush library. We'll go to the air brush and fold the select salt blend brush. We will set the opacity of this brush to something around 35% or so, and we will go with the bigger size of the brush and start to go from the edges and start to add the secondary color here. So spend some time here and start to add this color. We are mostly adding it toward the top and toward the left part, but also going toward the right and adding a bit of the color to the tips here too. Also, we can go with slightly smaller size of the brush and put a bit of the color right here to the stem. So creating something like that and creating the nice gradient right here. If you overdid it a little bit, you can go to the smudge tool, make the brush bigger, and go and smudge it so everything looks very, very smooth. So for example, let's go with something like that. Or if you want to spend more time right here and add more color, you are welcome to go and do that. So create something that you like, and when you are done, let's get back to our previous brush. So we are going to the brush library and we will go to the calligraphy folder and choose monoline brush. When we did it, we will get back to our layers and we will create one more lay on top. Let's tap on the lay and use the option clipping mask. Again, we will stay inside our sheep and when we have it, let's get back to our color palette and switch the color to dark green. With this color, we will go and start to add some veins right here. Let's go with slightly smaller size of the brush or for example, 4%, and we will go toward the middle part first and we will create a line that will go down. If you want, we also can use the symmetry tool right here so we can go back to our layers, tap onto the sly and use the option drawn as to be able to add these veins on both sides at the same time. You can do that, or you can create it one by one to create some interest and to create some difference insights. Or if you want to use the symmetry, let's go and start to do it right here. Going from the top firstly and creating a straight line going down like that, we need only one line, so we are holding it at the end, and then we are going to our editing tool. We are going to the note right here and we are trying to match it with the previous, the shape on the opposite side. When we have it, let's tap on the screen and let's go to the sides and let's create the veins right here. So we will go with simple lines. In that way, if you want to add some beautifications, you are welcome to add some nodes or some little dots or something like that. Go and create one more set of these elements on the bottom. Create some beautification if you want to. And when we have the result like that, let's go toward the next little segment right here onto our leaf, and let's go from the tip right here. You can go with straight lines or you can go with the curve so you can hold your line at the end and create a if you are holding your line and it is snapping to a straight line, you can try to lift up your Apple pencil and go toward the 102 and you might have the option arc. If you have it, use it. If you don't have it, you will need to try it out one more time, and maybe this time you will have this option arc if you want to adjust it. So go to the editing mode if you want to adjust it. When you have the result like that, let's again go to the sides and let's create some veins right here too. Again, you can go straight away to the same level or if you want to add some interest or something else right here, you are welcome to go and create some pattern with these little veins that you are creating. So for example, let's go with something like that. Maybe create one more little shape right here. Again, if you want you can go with the curse or with the straight lines, we don't need to pay too much attention toward the middle part because we will have another element right here. So you can keep the middle part a little bit black. When we have the second part done, let's go to the next one and again, doing the same thing here. Starting with the middle line, holding it if we want to create a curve and then going into the sides and starting to create these little parts over the sides. Again, if you want to add some beautification, you are welcome to go and do that. Go along the shape and create a couple of these details. When we are done with this one, go into the next one and creating one more little line right here. Let's finish up creating these little things, little veins that we are creating by going to the rest of the leaves that we have right here. As for the bottom one, let's go from the middle and we will create a line going like that. Again, we don't need to connect it because we will have another shape right here for this part, let's create only two lines for the veins. So for example, go on like that, and if you feel that maybe it is a little bit too dark for the veins, we are welcome to go to our layers, tap onto the icon right here onto this layer and adjust the apasite. For example, something around 60, maybe 65% will look slightly better. When we have the result like that, let's tap onto the screen, and let's go and create our future little elements inside the middle part. Let's create one more layer on top. We will switch the color to cat and we will go inside the shape, and we will create the shape of the perfectly round circle one more time. Let's first go with slightly bigger size of the brush of 6% and we will go and create the shape like that. Again, hold your line in the end, hold one of your fingers on the screen, adjust the size to your liking, we will need to create something pretty big right here. When we have it, let's position it straightly at the center. When we have the shape, going straightly to our key uniform method, snapping it on, holding our apple pentel and looking for this orange line. Adjust it to your liking, so you can go a little bit higher or a little bit lower, find what looks good to you when you are done, let's straight go and add the color inside the shee. Now when we have it in that way, let's go and adjust it slightly. Firstly, we will go toward our layers, tap onto the lee and use the option drawing assist. Now, when we have it, let's go again to our magic one, two, liquefy two. Push option, size slider, adjust it to your liking, and let's go and sculpt slightly different sp right here. To go on firstly from the bottom, starting to create a shape like that. Again, if you need to go to the size slider and adjust it while you are creating the things right here, you are welcome to go and do that. Let's go and widen the bottom part of our shape and create the shape of some kind of the loaf of bread shape right here. So if you need to spend more time right here, you are welcome to take as many time as you need. If you want to maybe try out a different shape, you are, of course, welcome to do it. So, for example, when we have the shape like that, that's pretty good for us. Let's tap on our magic once or twice to get away from this mode. And let's go and create the ears right here. So firstly, let's get back to our layers, and we will go to this layer where we have our skin. We will select it, we will hold it, and we will drag it above everything that we have right here, and also we'll go and unhide it. Now when we have it, let's go underneath the leer that we have for our loaf of bread or our fish for our cat, and let's create one more layer here. Onto this layer, we will again tap on it and use the option drawn assist and then with the same color with the same brush with the same size, we will go toward this area right here and we will create the ears. We will step from the middle part a little bit and we will create the shape that will be connected in a middle with this line that we for this little part. When we have it, we will go toward the bottom and we will create a big ear going down in that way. If you want to adjust the shape, when you are creating it, adjust it if you want to, let's go to the bottom and let's connect the part onto the side, and then when we have no gaps inside our shape, let's drag and drop the color inside. Now when we have the result like that, let's get back to our layers, and we will hide our layer with the scheme, so we don't need it anymore. Let's take a look at what we have for our ears. If you want to adjust it in any way, let's go and do that. For example, let's grab our eraser, go toward the top and soften up the overall shape right here. So instead of this very straight corner, we will create a very soft one. And if you want to do something with other shapes right here, you are welcome to go and do whatever you want to do to them. When we have the result like that, let's get back to our layers, and let's create one more layer on top of our layer with the ears. Let's tap on it and use the option clipping mask firstly, then tap on it one more time and use the option drawing assist. Now switching the color to yellow ears and we will go inside the shape of the ears and we will create the inner part right here. We will need to basically go and repeat the shape that we have outside. Let's go and start to do this. Going like that, creating a smaller shape to what we have outside, you can use all the options that we used before. Hold your Apple pencil, go to the editing tool, adjust the shape if you need to close the shape when you are ready and then drag and drop the color inside. Now when we have the inner parts, let's go and work more onto our fees. So firstly, go into our list and go into our lie where we have the fist and we will need to go again and select our color with the title cat. Let's go to our size slider, and let's make the size slightly bigger so something around 30% or so. And we'll go to the side and we'll create some kind of the whiskers right here. So let's go and with one line, create the shape, going in that way. You can adjust it angle wise or size wise, it's up to you. Try not to go too far away from the shape, and when you have the first one, go to the bottom one and create one more set of whiskers right here. Now when we have it, let's go and work on artificial features. First, let go into our layers and we'll create one more layer on top. We will tap on the layer and use the option clipping mask. Again, we will tap on the layer and use the option drawing assist. When we have it, we will switch the color to ice and we will need to go and find the size that will be suitable here. For example, let's go and try out something around 13%. If it's too small, we will try it with a bigger size. I feel it is looking pretty good, so we will create half of the circle like that. We can hold your line at the end and go to the editing tool to adjust the curvature of this. Let's make it pretty rounded, for example, go in that way. It's easier to take a look at the opposite side when you are adjusting the overall look of the elements, you will see clearly what you are doing. If you want you can move the shape slightly down or closer to one another or farther away, find what looks good to you. If you want to add more details, maybe lashes or something like that, you are, of course, welcome to go and do that. When we have the eyes like that, let's also go back to our color palettes and switch the color to mouth. We will change the size of the brush to 4%, and we'll go right between the eyes, and we will add a little mouth right here. So, for example, let's go and start in that way. We will go to this line that we have in the center and we will go slightly toward the side from it. And from this side, we will go and create the shape like that. So hold your line at the end, and let's go to our editing tool to adjust it slightly. Let's go and make it slightly more rounded and maybe make the nose part a little bit smaller too. Adjust it. Take a look at it from the distance if you need to make sure that it looks fine or not. Adjust the placement. If you need to move it down, move it high, it's up to you. When you are done, tap on the screen, and let's go and work onto this nose by adding the line right here and maybe if we have extra little parts that we need to take care of, we will go and do that too. If you want to do something else to the nose, for example, maybe make it smaller or something else, you are welcome to go and do that, try to make everything very, very soft and when we have the result like that, let's go and add the checks. For the checks, firstly, let's get back to our layers. We will go underneath the layer that we have for official features. To our main layer, creating one more layer here, tapping on it, and using the option drawing assist. It will be automatically clipped because we have the layer that is clicked on the top, and we will go back to our color palette to select the cheeks color. Now let's go underneath the ice and we will create big checks like that. Again, hold your line at the end, adjust the rotation, adjust the placement. If you need to hold it, go to the editing tool or the top, find the right placement for these elements. For example, let's go with something in that way. Let's tap on the screen when we are ready and let's drag and drop the color inside. Now when we have the shape like that, decide whether the opacity of this element is enough or too much. If you want to adjust it, let's get back to our layers, tap onto the icon and go to the opacity slider to adjust the opacity. For example, let's go with something around maybe 65%. That looks pretty good. When we have it, we also can go toward our main shapes that we have for facial features, and we can go and add a bit of the blush right here toward our cheeks. Let's tap onto our lay with facial features and let's turn off our drone assist by selecting it from the last. When we get it, let's again get back to our color palettes and select mouth color. With this color and with are 6% of brush, we will go inside the cheeks and we will add a couple of lines like that. So try to make triangular lines that will be in parallel to one another and do the same onto the opposite side too. Now when we have the result like that, let's also go and add a bit more interest toward our cat, and we will do it in that way. Go on firstly to our layers, go into our main layer with the head, we will tap on it and turn off our drone assist. Then going back to our color palettes and selecting the color with the title cat. And let's go with our size that we used before, 6%. We'll go and add some fluffiness toward our cat. For example, let's go like that, add a couple details go in that way. If you want to go along the whole shape and add a few details here too, you are welcome to go and do that or add the details only on the now when we have the result like that, we will need to add some shadows. Let's move on to the next part. 4. Shadows: Begin this part firstly by going to our layers, and we will start with our layer with the leaf. So let's go to this layer where we have the veins, and we will create one more layer on top of it, tapping on the layer and using the option clipping mask to again stay inside the shep then we also will go to this icon on our layer, and we will switch the blending mode to multiply because we want to add the shadow. And as for the opacity, let's go with something around 60% for now, and if we need to change it later on, we will do it later on. When we did it, let's get back to our color palettes and select this dark green color. Firstly, we will go toward this part that we have right here, and actually, before starting to do that, let's move the cat slightly lower and we will do it in that way. We will need to go to all elements that we have for our cat and one by one, select them. When we've selected the ears, we will go and select the La by swiping it from left to right, and we will do it to all the layers that belong to the cat, all the face elements and the ears and everything. When we selected everything, we are going to our Aoki uniform method, snapping and we will move the cat slightly down going along this line that we have in the middle. So orange line. For example, let's position it in that way. So we'll have more space over the top. When we have it, we will get back to our layers and we will go to this layer that we've created for our future shadows. When we have it, we will go toward the bottom part and we will start to do the following. We will go toward this little part and we will start to add the shadow here. We can go one by one to every side that we have right here, but we quite lazy. We don't want to do that. So let's get back to the leer, tap on it and use the option drawing assist. So one more time, we will start by going to these little parts, and we will go and start to create the shadow going in that way. So we will need to have a rounded chip, and we will go with our brush and start to add the color inside when we are ready. So going like that, starting to add the shadow right here on the top of the stem two. So let's go like that. And then we will grab our smudge to and very, very softly, we will go and add the color right here, so we will smudge it and we will try to create a very nice and soft transition between the colors. When we have the results like that, let's tap onto our brush one more time, and let's go over all of the bottom parts of the segments of the leaves, and we will start to add the shadows here too. You can go with the bigger size of the brush or with the smaller size of the brush. Basically, what we need to do is to create the shadow in that way. We have a bit less space with our shadow over the top part and we are trying to make it a little bit bigger onto the bottom. And also we'll need to pay attention to the connections right here. So if you overlap the leaf, go with your eraser and erase the parts that you don't need. When you are done with this segment, let's move on to the next one and do the same thing here. Starting from the top, trying to create a rounded shape like that. Hold your line at the end if you need to go to the bottom and create the line yo in that way. And the cata inside and if you have some extra elements that you don't need or if you overlap the segment that you have on the bottom, and erase the parts that you don't need. Now when we're done with it, let's tap on our brush one more time and add one more shadow right here once at the top. Again, the same way, holding our line and the end going toward this little part, adding a bit of color here, a bit of a thicker shadow, and erasing everything that we don't need. Now when we have these shadows, let's tap onto our brush, and let's go and add the shadow underneath the cat. Again, starting from the bottom, starting to add the shadow going like that, repeating the oral shape that we have for the cat. You can go with a thicker shadow or with a thinner shadow, it's up to you. When you have it, let's go toward these little whiskers that we have, and again, we will repeat the oral shape. When we have it, going toward the ears, starting the same way as we did right here with slightly thinner shadow on the top and a bit of a thicker shadow onto the bottom. Again, you can use all the options that we used before. Hold your Apple pencil at the end of the line, use your eraser if you need to make a nice connection right create something going in that way. If you want to add more shadows, you are welcome to go and do that. When we are done with this task, decide on the opacity. If you want to go maybe a little bit further away with the opacity, you are welcome to go and do that or maybe you want to reduce it. Again, tap on the Mcd and adjust the opacity from here. I noticed that I have a little bit of the line right here and I don't want it to be here, so I will go back to the layer where we have the veins, grab the eraser and erase this part that we don't need. Now when we have the result like that, we are done with the main part, but let's go and add some beautification. 5. Final Touches: For the beautification, firstly, decide whether you want to add a bit of the shadow onto the cat. If you want to do that, let's get back to our layers and go above all the layers with the cat that we have, create one more layer here, tap on it, clip in mask, and we also will go to the N icon and change the blending mode to multiply. Let's go with something around 40% of opacity and change the color to checks. With this color, we can go toward the bottom part with the slightly bigger size of the brush, and we can go and add the shadow in that way, for example. Let's go and repeat the oral shape that we have for our cat. We can go toward the whiskers onto the right and put them in the shadow, too. So going on like that manually, creating the shadow, and going to the opposite side to create a bit of a shadow here, too. When we have the result like that, let's continue by adding some beautification onto our leaf. Let's get back to our leas. We will go above all the layers that we have. We will create one more lay here, firstly, we will go and switch the color to the cat. We will go with this color and with slightly smaller size of the brush toward our leaf and we will start to add some speckles right here. Go like that, starting to add some dot, some little lines. You can vary the size of the brush, go with the bigger size, with a smaller size, it's up to you. You can overdo to make it very, very sparkly. It's again up to you. Go and vary the size of these elements. If you want to create some other elements, you are welcome to go and do that. For example, you can go with the shape of sparkles or maybe some kind of this shape. It's up to you, create a couple of details, so everything looks pretty nice. You also can go and maybe create some bubbles. So for example, we can go right here, create a rounded shape and then use our eraser to cut the inside part. So add a couple of these beautifications, and when you are ready with them, let's go toward our top. And if you want, we can add a bit of interest to our leaves by adding some little cuts to them. Firstly, we'll need to get back to our color palette and select the same color that we use for our background, so background color. And with this color, we can go to our leaves. And for example, add some little cuts in that way. You can go to all of the leaves and add some pattern with this cut or only go toward the top and add something going in that way. When we have the result like that, let's also go outside the sheeps, and let's add a couple of details here too. So firstly go into our least and create one more lay on top, and we will go to our color palette and we will be using these colors that we have onto the bottom. For example, let's select this slightly lighter orange color and with the bigger size of the brush, let's go outside, and let's add a couple of dots right here. You can vary the size of the elements. You can go with smaller size, with bigger size, add a couple more duets right here. It's up to you what you want to create with these things. When you are done with this orange color, let's go and switch it to, for example, yellow ears. Let's go with slightly bigger size of the brush or smaller size of the brush and add a couple more details with this color. Let's go like that, at a couple more speckles and add something going in that. If you want to switch the color to, for example, yellow green and add the similar details to what you already have onto your screen and go with this color, you are welcome to go and do that, too. So, add some kind of the interest or the picture with this little duet. When we have the results like that, we can go and make it a little bit more interesting by adding a couple more details over the elements that we have onto the outside part. So firstly, let's get back to our list and create one more layer on the top, and then we will go to this brush or to two brushes that you downloaded. So we will be using either tinted leaf or tinted leaf multiclored. The one that we have as a tinted leaf will be only one color when you are going to be stamping it, and the multiclored will have a bit of a difference into the color. So let's first go with this tinted multiclored one, and we will go and change the color for, for example, orange. This color and with slightly bigger size or the brush, let's go over the top and let's start adding the additional leaves. You can rotate your canvas to add this element. You can see when you are stamping, you have a bit of difference between the colors, and if you want to use this brush, go and use it. If you want to use only the tinted one with no difference in color, you are welcome to use it too. For example, let's go like that. Again, rotate your canvas to have a difference inside the rotation of the leaves that you are adding. Go with different sizes, go with different colors. You can try out something else right here, for example, yellow green, go like that and add a couple more details with this brush. If you want, you also can go to the leaf and add a couple of details here to not only outside the shape. For example, we can go and select some orange color and maybe add a bit of the leaves right here onto the bottom. Again, you can go with smaller size of the brush and add a couple of smaller shapes going outside the shape or inside the shape, it's up to you. Let's spend some time here and add a few little details in the shape of the leaves. And when you are done with it, if you want, we also can add some leaves behind the leaf. So we will need to go to our las and go to the bottom part of our as panel. For example, we can go to this layer where we have the shadows for our leaf, create one more leaf here, and drag it underneath everything that we have. And we will go with slightly orangier color than we have like right now, we will go, for example, with this orange, we will go with very big size of the brush, and we can go behind the shape and add some leaves here, too, to add some interest to the picture. You can add a couple of details like that. So for example, go on here, there and add in a couple of details in that way. If you want to change the color, you are welcome to go and do that. If you want to add more interest, more details, you are welcome to explore this folder that you downloaded. So for example, we can go with some petals like that, go outside and add a couple of details in that way. Spend some time here, beautify your little shapes, your little illustration, and when you are done with everything, when you did everything that you wanted, we are done with our illustration.
