To give you illustrator software users to detailed analysis to share the design of a portrait melting splash effect of the drawing tutorial.
01 First, create facial contour. Use the Pen tool to mark some strokes, and then convert the strokes so that the lines become smooth and slippery. I drew it on A3 's paper, with a stroke of 0.5. You don't need to be perfect in this step, because all the components will be able to make adjustments at any time in the future.
02 When you are satisfied with the contours of the profile, it is important to make sure that your strokes have been expanded so that the size of the stroke does not change as the object is magnified. You can do this by selecting strokes, menus, objects > extensions. When these are done, clear some of the end strokes, and the lines become more graceful.
03 Images need a dark part to do some balance. Using the Pen tool, draw the dark part of a portrait and carefully depict some details, such as eyelashes. Try to grasp the picture of the balance of light and shade, do not let the picture out of control. And, of course, don't forget, if you want, you can come back later and adjust any of the strokes.
04 Now the base shape has been completed, now you need to select a color version. I used a dark color and four shades of light that changed a little. I also chose a bright color to break the dull feeling of dark colors. After selecting the color, lock the contour layer, create a new layer, and use the pen tool to depict the portrait contour and create an undertone layer. You can name it "skin" or "background" and drag it to the bottom.
05 You can add more details and fill it with the colors you've chosen before. Create a new one or two layer above the locked layer. You can now draw without scruple. You will not be bothered by the careless selection of other layers. Try to keep the graphic lines flowing like a stream. You can arrange the object hierarchy through ctrl/cmd+[/].
06 for water droplets, it is easy to draw out. Using the Pen tool, draw a triangle, and then pull the handle of the dots outward and pull the dots inward. You can see the water dripping curve. You can always try to create different effects by changing the position of the third point and the stroke axis through the tool panel.
07 in order to create the effect of the flow, the edge of the water droplets and the combination of graphics need to be very smooth. Try adding more strokes and doing some debugging.
08 now is the time to create the effect of the flow. Create a new layer and place it on the top level. In order to have a better effect, you need to create each water droplet individually. But, if you want, you can copy some water droplets and make a little adjustment. Make sure the graphics you create are natural and smooth.
09 When you feel that the position of these drops is no problem, the use of water droplets to unite the graphics will be a good way to make the picture more mobile feeling. This also can handle the big blank to bring the picture imbalance. You can get your face down to the water and make sure that the final path of the droplet and the diffusion can bring good results.
10 This step, draw the contour of the hair, just as you are drawing a face. You can draw a general shape first, and then slowly draw the details, fill in some of the color blocks. Make sure that your dark part is consistent with the light part and the human face.
11 when the overall structure of the hair has been determined. You'll need to create more details. With the pen tool, you need to turn the fill to close, and then the stroke is a thin line. You need to mix the hair and the dark part. It will be a time-consuming thing, but the effect is also very shocking.
12 to colour the hair now. Like coloring your face, you need to create some graphics in the lower layer of your hair and fill in some of the lighter colors. When this step is done, add a few of the colors to the minor gradient. It doesn't matter, but the changes in the two colors can give the hair some wonderful feeling.
13 Now you want to draw more details, draw some hair, stroke them to expand, through the control of the strokes, to make the effect of the hair tip.
14 Portrait of the basic drawing complete, so return to the full picture view overall. If there are areas that don't fit the overall style, then improve them. Try to find areas where the detail is missing or too many blank areas to try to fill in the proper detail.
15 When you have completed all the steps, I recommend that you unlock all the layers and select all the objects. From this, the objects are grouped and then expanded. So you can drag it into Photoshop as a smart object to make some adjustments.
Well, the above information is small set to you illustrator of this software users to bring the detailed design of a portrait of the melting splash effect of the drawing tutorials to share the entire content, you see the users here, Small series believe that we now see here is very clear the production method, then everyone quickly to follow the tutorial on the top of their own to draw a test effect bar.
