Look at the effect chart first.
Step 1
Let's create a new document, File > new (or CTRL + N). Select the international standard paper in the preset, size A4.
D5 d-k/z/z/G
Use the Paint bucket tool to fill the background layer with a blue (#425979) similar to the following figure.
Step 2
Let's add a new layer (via Shift+ctrl+n). Then start sketching with a Brush tool B (Window > Brush > Shape Dynamics, "control" in shape Dynamics, select "Pen pressure"). (In fact, there is no need to strictly follow the above, I look at the line to draw comfortable on the line)
When we finish, reduce the opacity of this layer to 29%, and set the blending mode to multiply. Create a new group below, named "Doll" toys.
Step 3
Next let's Choose the Ellipse tool (U) to draw the doll's head. Set its color to be brighter than the back color of the blue. Use the CTRL + T command and then rotate it through the node to debug it to a shape closer to the head. (Look at the picture is very important, look at the picture below)
Step 4
Use the Pen tool (P) to draw the shape of the hat. Then hold down the ALT key, place the mouse pointer between the layer and the head layer, and then click Create Clipping Mask. Or use the shortcut key ctrl+alt+g. (This place does not understand the words to the forum discussion)
Click the path Selection tool (a) to modify the nodes on the hat to make it look smoother and more natural.
Step 5
Let's do the eyes. Use the Ellipse tool (U) to draw an ellipse using black. Then press and hold the command key plus T (Ctrl + t) to tilt the eyes. Place it on the other side of the face by holding down the ALT copy and dragging the ellipse. Then click the right mouse button to select a horizontal flip. (It's important to look at the picture)
Step 6
Let's draw two circles in the head, create a new group on top (where the group is, look at the picture), and name it "hair clip". Draw a slightly green and white circle.
Then draw the skull's teeth, first click on the vector mask thumbnail, and then select the path. Then click the Pen Tool (P) and select Add to the shape area in the options so that everything you draw is in the same layer as the little skull. Then use the elliptical tool (U) to draw the eye and place it in a clipping mask in the skull.
Select the group "hair clip", copy the group and place it between the head and the hair circle, rotate smaller, and then put it in the right place (see chart).
Step 7
Let's create a group below, named "Body". Then draw a body shape, you can use the Direct selection tool (A) to change these shapes.
Let's create a group for the legs and use the clipping mask clipping Mask to make stripes and shoes. Copy these layers, rotate them, and place them in the right place. (Study the picture carefully)
Step 8
Let's create a bit of a sense of volume for our face. Double-click the head layer. Select the inner shadow and choose a darker color than the face.
Then follow the chart to set the value so that the edge of the face produces an inward gradient effect.
Right-click on the layer and select Copy layer style copy Layer style. Then select all layers of the same color and paste the layer style paste Layer style.
In this case, the light blue Place will have a gradient effect, so that the picture will have some three-dimensional. If you feel that the shadow directly copied over the position of the hand is too large, you can change the size of the inner shadow alone, narrow the point on the line.
Step 9
Here, I don't like the tilt of the head, so I select the group, and then use CTRL + T. Keys to rotate it slightly.
Step 10
Create a new group of "mouse" mice. As we do with toys, we draw all the parts individually. I drew a different color for my leg.
Let's use the Brush tool brush Tool (B) in the hard brush (pen pressure pen pressure activation) to draw the mouth. If you do not have a graphics input board, you can use the Pen tool pen Tool (P) to complete.
Step 11
Close the group "doll" and "mouse" to create a new paintings under this arc. Hold down CTRL + R to pull up the ruler and pull a guide out of the middle.
Use the Pen tool (P) to draw a half arc.
Now follow the drawing out of another shape.
Step 12
Copy a skeleton (group) and put it in this position to enlarge the skull a little.
Draw a circle on his left. Draw the shape of the following figure and set the same color.
Let's put the circle on the top and bottom sides of the skull.
Step 13
Now let's add black stripes and place them in a white shape by using a clipping mask.
Step 14
Now let's paste the layer style on the ARC layer style. Add an inner shadow to this radian.
Make the same settings (add the inner shadow) to the white part of the black and white, and modify it according to the effect (not necessarily according to the values on the diagram).
