To you photoshop software users to detail the ancient costume figure scene illustration creation step experience.
Here to share with you the work of the "Flower Feast" creative steps and experience.
Each illustrator of the creative way is different, some people like the picture of the idea of the pen, and I prefer from a pile of messy colors and lines in the clear clue.
I believe that inspiration is a little bit of growth, do not have to wait to feel the painting, but the painting will have a feeling. The original and final picture is not the same,
The creation of the process of constantly have new ideas to join, gradually improve the picture, which is the fun of creation.
When there is only one blurred image of the picture, start to write, with a warm gray to lay the sketch, in general, several characters of the dynamic and position.
In this step everything is vague, uncertain, just like waking up in the morning to remember the picture of the dream.
Of course, don't worry, your sketch will tell you what to do next.
The messy sketch is sorted out, the main characters and supporting role of the space relationship, the character of the dynamic.
Can see several main characters, the woman of red dress, the grandfather son, slave servant, maid and so on.
About the plot of the picture, before the painting did not think, since not according to the intended "script" for composition,
Then in the creative process of any play, think of which painting to where.
The composition and frame can be used to lay out the big colors. Here I use a "multiply" layer, laying a warm tone across the screen,
Some similar to the tan of the classical oil painting, will make the picture appear dignified some. At the same time the picture center of the red Dress women's clothing is portrayed more prominent,
In order to echo it, the background is also red. The background here is a reference to some material and film stills.
In order to draw more realistic details, reference materials are essential.
4. Adjust the frame to add details
With the depth of creation, as previously said, ideas and ideas are constantly generated. This step, in order to foil two main characters (red Dress woman and the grandfather son) contradictions,
I feel the need to add a few roles and then extend the format. For the composition of the plot, my point of view is that each picture is best to have only one main contradiction point, plus several times contradictory points,
The plot of the contradiction point is mainly to match the main contradiction. Here begins to portray the facial expression of the character, let the character begin to play. Adjust the primary and secondary contrast of the screen at the same time.
In the primary and secondary treatment, you can use the color saturation and light contrast to pull open, such as here I use the most intense light and shade to shape the woman of red dress,
Especially her head accessories of light and shadow, let her suddenly from the crowd "stand out".
Several main characters are on the scene, a new "multiply" layer, will be a few supporting the shadow of the deep pressure, the purpose of this is mainly to highlight the protagonist,
You can also adjust the visual center to two characters.
6. Portray Costume Details
Screen of the most dazzling clothing is undoubtedly that a seat in red, this wipe not only lit the role, but also let the reader of her identity and story has a guess and association.
Clothing folds are very difficult, generally will find some pictures for reference, but because this role is completely fictitious, and did not find a model posing racket,
So it is almost impossible to find the exact same garment folds that can only be drawn with reference and experience judgments.
7. The portrayal of red dress
In order to perform a texture similar to silk, try to handle it a little more strongly in the high light of the folds of the garment, while paying attention to the light source behind the girl,
This will make some of the fabric behind her brighter.
8. Facial and detail characterization
For the face details of several characters, in order to express the accurate expression, you can take photos as the material, you can find similar film and television materials and stills as a reference.
The girl with the scissors hand also as an important play to depict.
9. Characterization of background characters
To make the plot of the picture more intense, the portrayal of the background figures can not be ignored. In the portrayal of the background characters can not be as prominent as the protagonist,
The way to grasp the sense of space in the background is to reduce the contrast, the characterizations of the five senses need not be too fine, the contrast between the shadow and the structure is weakened, so that they naturally melt into the background tones.
10. Characterization of the details of the protagonist
After spending a lot of pen and ink to portray supporting and background characters, then turn the center of gravity back to the protagonist, began to portray two main characters clothing details.
The girl's Dudou, increased the texture and embroidery of silk, and the fan of his grandfather's son was redrawn.
11. Finishing the picture
When the picture tends to perfect, can reduce the picture, look at the overall level and rhythm. After observation, the left side of the picture is a little stuffy,
Background tones and the foreground of the characters too close, so to the background here added a window, and lift the light out of the window,
Such a foreground figure is set out, the whole picture is relatively perfect.
