PS Mouse painted super cool golden Dragon

This time the theme is to draw a golden dragon, A4 size ratio.
Before writing, it is best to do some preparatory work, collect more topics related to reference materials, in the sketch of the general concept of the Dragon's dynamic and layout arrangements. In the bottom of my heart there is a certain embryonic time we can enter the preliminary drawing stage.
Final effect

1, the outline of the first outline of the main object of the shape, for the shape of no grasp of friends, suggest the line hook a few more detailed, some details are also appropriate sketch, facilitate the work of the later.

2, according to the previous drawing of the line, the use of monochrome flat paint the outline of the subject matter, note that different objects using different layers to draw, so that convenient adjustment and a single layer of rapid depth.

Then use a more casual brush to add some light textures to the background to make it look less monotonous.

3, in the monochrome base line can be deeply portrayed, first imagine a main light source, according to the light source for the formation of stars.

I personally prefer to use the pen and PS from the dry medium brush with a large volume of smear, after the use of PS from the 19th round head brush continues to depict the visual center of the picture-the leading part. is still the use of block-shaped method, at this stage can be added to the impact of environmental reflective and secondary light.
 

4, keep up with the background of the drawing, as far as possible the overall newspaper works, so as to better grasp the picture from the overall situation. Or the use of the previous 19th brush, with rubber tools to draw a rock silhouette shape, pay attention to the background color of the warm and cold contrast.

Because of continuous painting, the eye will be less sensitive to the current picture, this time need to flip the screen to observe, especially in the character drawing, this step is very necessary, can help us find many problems.

For large-resolution graphs, you can reverse them by saving a JPG, which is a lot more efficient.

5, reverse back to continue painting, began to add some details, the background with a brush 19th to reduce the transparency of a slightly drawn some rocky mountains of texture to enrich.

The scale of the dragon's body for simple painting, is basically in the previous basis with a slightly darker or slightly lighter color simple description of the shape of the scale, the cost is very short, but the overall picture is much richer.

Then combine the dry medium brush to draw the rock, pay attention to the big side of the transition, in the edge part with a slightly brighter color to mention, strengthen the body.
6, the details can be added after some of the screen effect, I chose the wings, stones, claws of a part of the different degrees of radial blur, strengthen the picture of the movement, while more prominent leading parts, the final combination of layers using color level slightly adjust the shade of the screen.
