As you can see, I have added some design on the shirt. Don't hesitate toe can to remove a thing. Keep experimenting before we talk about colors. I will quickly renamed Misleader to outline and lock it so that I don't paint on this layer accidentally. Our sketch is a fairly simple one, and if we divided according Toa, what colors each area would have, you will have around six different parts skin hair, the chair behind the character cock, the shirt and the design on the shirt. I have made another document and placed some images that I keep taking from my smartphone to think of color is a very difficult task. It involves lots of stories and observation and practice. But don't let all the color theories stop you from making your next artwork. Study them. But more importantly, look around yourself. You can see beautiful colors all around you. If you see something good, take a picture off it. Use it with the colors from it him I will make a selection area. And by using the eyedropper tool, I'll pick a light in color for the skin from this flower image. Next already spawned color from the background of this image. For the shirt, I'll pick a blue color that will contrast with the colors of the skin and here, also for the chair and the cup. I will choose colors that are more or less think, and finally, a bright yellow for their design on the shirt that would contrast the blue. Most beginners make the mistake of choosing a whole lot of colors, but don't do that. Big colors that are related and few colors to complement them. Try to keep a balance between the colors. I will copy the color swatches and paste it into our project. Rename this layer toe base colors and keep it below our our clear. I would feel the backroom Lear with a 50% gray color. It's easier to the eyes compared to the white background, and we can see the colors better in the last lesson. I actually connect the outlines and don't leave gaps. This would make our job easier. No, By using the Magic Oneto, we can select the areas from the outlines here to make multiple selection areas whole shift toe, add to selection but the color from the respective color swatch and fill the colors using the people. Shortcut all aspects in the base layer. But if we look closely, we even see that there are areas where the magic want. All couldn't make selection and there are no colors. Field.

Listen here and see you in the next listen.
5. Adding Shadows and Highlights: in this lesson, we will add shadows and highlights to our base color earlier that we made in the last. Wisam. We will start by making a new earlier about the base skull earlier and you name it to shadows. Pick our heart, fill brush and enable pressure for capacity because we don't need 100% or big brush strokes for shadows and highlights, we need slight federation in the intensity. Pick the color from the base layer and open of the color picker panel. Now good. Just tracked down to a darker color. Changed the hue slider as well, since the color a little bit. Make selection using the magic one tool from the base layer and gently paint on the shadows . Leader. The videos under the neck will the news inside of the year near the eyes would have shadows and we will paint them accordingly. Right enable the pressure for opacity option for it is rs ville, and it is the areas where you don't need the brush marks.

While painting used the pressure of the bras to make variations in opacity, apply more pressure to the areas where you think it needs to be more darker. Lights and shadows gives our flat two dimensional drawing a sense off gift. It keeps the sips three dimensional form like the real world like colors. The subject of flight is also vast, but again we can look around ourselves. Look how light interacts with objects how the shadows are formed when you switch on the light, how different color looks in different light. There's no easier way to learn about color in light, but it's so much easier to object the things around with different colors and in different lights. For the highlights, we will make a new layer. Rename it toe highlights Jews 100% white color from the color because make selection and paint on the area, we will see a white brush mark. But if we sick the blending more off the layer toe overly, it will light in the area where we will paint with white does, creating an illusion off light. We will make strong highlights on the cheeks and the lips. Areas were lights would reflect the most what ideas, like a short make the light softer. We are almost done with painting our does cage, and it's more off her digital pending. Now, Dana doodles get I will see you in the next lesson where we will air some effects to our artwork.
6. Adding effects: in this lesson, we will learn to add some effects to our digital artwork. Before we begin, I will select a basic color shadows and highlights layer and group them together, renamed the group Toe Color and Light Lock and hide it. I will also take the outlier, make a copy off it and group both the layers together. The first effect that I'm going to show you would be to change the color off the our place . I will select the copy of chocolate layer and Goto image menu adjustments and choose the option hue saturation. The hue saturation window will appear in this window. Make sure you check the colorize option. Increase the saturation and lightness later and we can see the changes in real time on our our plan. Earlier, there was initially black. If he moved a huge later, we will see our stroke color chance. I'll pick a British color as it will go well with the colors that we already have. Changing the outline Color balances the overall image as it montez well with other colors, and it's not as prominent as the black of glands. Next we will add some reflections to do that I will make a new layer. Rename it to reflections, renaming the layers. Help us to stay organized, so try to rename off whenever possible. I will move the reflection there. Bu our color and light to go with the press stool. I will paint colors roughly on this layer. Heat the surrounding colors using the eyedropper tool. As I move along from the breast state. Choose this much. Plus, it's a dedicated brush for the smudge tool. Gently smudged the roughly painted area and bring the colors. The blended colors give a feel off reflection. You can vary the blending amount while painting to create strong or blood reflections. We will also use the tool toe cleanup dependent areas. Lower the capacity a little bit the next two. We will put a small gift, and it's an easy one. Make a new layer from the precip, selling the smokeless set of white color at click once you will instantly get the smoke now from the filter menu, select the option goshi in blood and slightly increased the radios toe blur the smoke.
