Fireworks to draw exquisite three-dimensional simulation of metal balls

Using fireworks to simulate three-dimensional things is not difficult, just need to observe carefully, there is a little patience. Today we start the first step of our fireworks simulation painting. Draw a metal ball.

Because most of my friends have not studied sketch, they have no habit of observing things in detail. So we have to explain before painting the focus of metal painting, metal is characterized by the difference between the light and shade, highlight is the embodiment of the important part of the texture, the other reflection will be relatively bright. If you have studied Japanese Paladin armor illustrations, there should be more feelings and tricks. The final sphere of light and shade is also a feature that everyone needs to observe before drawing.

The first step: Draw the background

Select the Circle tool, hold down the SHIFT key, in the screen, draw a positive circle, and then select the Fill tool, in the property panel, the fill mode to radial, and edit the fill style, such as the figure, this fill style includes four control color points, detailed production of your fill style, is your simulation success points. My main function of this style is to play the background, and the reflection of the ball is also spread out.

Step two, increase the dark part

Copy a circle, use the path Editing tool, and the combination of paths, punching, intersection, pruning and other commands, make a shape like the following, and give the figure as shown in the fill, and put in the position shown. The point of this step is to skillfully use the path tools and commands to get the shape you want, and give the appropriate padding. Note the parameters of the feather, as well as the choice of transparency.
