Photoshop makes lifelike Meng Meng watercolor cartoons

Who says Photoshop can't make some lifelike watercolor paintings? Today small set will share with you how to make a lifelike Meng Meng watercolor painting, I hope you like. Or the old rules, first look at the effect chart:

Steps:

1, with the brush (with the most common type of solid round brush on the good) to draw the outline;

2, create a new layer on top of this layer, use the "cloud" filter in "Render", and improve the contrast (cloud filter is random, if you think the result is not satisfactory can be more than a few);

3, the "cloud" filter generated layer mode to overlay, transparency 30~40 left and right, so that the following layer lines appear to have a depth of change. Then execute the Add noise filter with the appropriate values and slightly add some noise; now the pencil feels like it ~=. =~ Ah ah ...

4. The layer coloring below the online manuscript (see below for coloring method);

5. Continue to paint ...

Some need to faint or blend with the smudge tool to rub a few more (=. =)

PS Brush function Although not strong PT, but with the other functions of PS, can change the room is very large. Here are some of the "wet media brushes" from PS:

This uses the double brush option in the PS brush settings. In other words, PS with some of the brushes, although ordinary, but combined with the possibility of unexpected effects.

Here's a simple mock watercolor effect brush setting:

Draw a graphic like the left (or you can intercept it from other appropriate pictures) with a common brush (which might use filters such as sharpen or add noise). Next, use the "smudge" and "blur" tools to randomly smear and blur around the pattern to create a seepage effect. This pattern is the source pattern we make the brush. Select Edit-> definition brush preset to save this graphic as a brush.

As shown in diagram settings. (I've only set the shape and color dynamics, and a lot of options are useless.) You can try the rest of the options, especially the double brush, you can create more changes and characteristics of the brush.

Paint as needed. At this point, you can only use the color block to color, because the PS brush does not provide a good color mixing function, so we use the "smudge" tool to replace. Select Smudge to drop the intensity to around 20, and then open the Brush Setup Panel, set scatter to around 150, and then apply the process color.

Create a new layer on top (water stain layer). Still choose the brushes we make ourselves. The diameter is lowered, the scatter is set to the maximum, the quantity is set to the minimum, and the color is white. Draw water stains (pictured).

Merges the layers and copies a copy. Perform the Find edge filter on the replica. The found edge is shown in black, and the layer mode is set to overlay (transparency depends on the situation), and the wet edge effect of watercolor is obtained. Next select the source layer, open the layer style, select "Pattern Overlay", and then in the "Art surface" library select "light-colored gouache Watercolor" material, the pattern is "superposition", transparency about 50%, get the texture of water colored paper. So far watercolor pen effect simulation finished ~ Thank you ~ (^u^)
