I will give you a detailed analysis of the Illustrator software and share with you an example of creating a realistic red satin.
Tutorial sharing:
First, let's determine several base tones. Three basic tones can be used for simplicity, and five for better effects. You can add a highlight item at the end of the opening process or make it at the same time.
After determining the base color, we will build it into a new color. This is a color palette application. If it is not very clear, we suggest you go to the Internet to find relevant tutorials for study.
First, draw a rectangle to make the whole look smooth according to your usual method. Small make up is to use the [deformation] & rarr; [flag] tool in the effect options for operations. Then go to the menu [object] & rarr; [extended appearance] to material it. As shown in the following figure:
After the initial shape is completed, the grid tool is used below:
The black lines shown in the following figure use the left and right gridlines to suppress the color range, so this effect can be achieved. If you do not want to draw a large film of the same color, you have to add a grid with a suppression range to the left, right, or up or down.
For details about how to add colors, refer to the actual red cloth.
The following small series will explain the knowledge about grid tools.
1. The gridline direction of the grid tool is affected by the distribution of original image anchor points. Most of the time it fits into the image, but the image cannot be distorted. Therefore, the less the original image anchor points, the better.
2. It is difficult to control more gridlines. You need to add new gridlines without special requirements.
3. The grid tool can achieve a variety of color filling effects, but the graphics using the grid tool cannot apply many other functions, such as deformation and distortion.
4. the principle of color rendering in the grid tool is to use one point as the starting point until the range of other points is blocked. If the two colors are the same, there is naturally nothing to say, if they are different, a gradient effect will be created. The shape is based on the grid range and can be adjusted (just like a normal picture with a radius of three points), but the gradient transition cannot be adjusted, only new mesh points can be added to control the color.
5. There is no transparent part of the pattern made by the grid tool. It is not as transparent as the gradient.
6. the operation of grid points is like a common Anchor. You can use the direct selection tool to adjust the grid points. You can also use the grid tool to select an area or a grid point separated by grid lines. (you can select multiple points, as with other operations), and then click the color in the color palette, this color will be used as the default color, if you add a new mesh point, it will be filled into the current color by default.
The final overall effect chart is shown as follows:

Distribution of all grid points:
All right, the above information is the detailed example of creating a realistic red silk satin for all the users of Illustrator's software, I believe that you can see the production method clearly here, so you can follow the tutorial to make a realistic red satin.
