Five. The eye color.

As the saying goes, the eyes are the windows of the mind. In painting, the eye is also the key part of the character, the soul of the character. Because it's so important, every author in the textbook I bought has an entire page to describe in detail. I shouldn't be an exception, here are 8 steps to introduce the method of drawing the eyes. The following diagram, each step is:

1. A new transparent arrow refers to a dark complexion, backlit on this layer (pale blue)

2. On the light complexion (white)

3. Make an eye selection with a quick mask (you can use the "lasso" tool to select the area of the eyeball, as it does with the mask).

4. Apply a "gradient" to the eye selection, which is spherical, with a four-week black gradient to the central dark brown.

5. Erase the extra pupil line in the line layer

6. Use the path tool to make a round selection, and then feather the selection with a alt+ctrl+d command, with a feather radius of 2 pixels (not feathering, not affecting the following steps). Then use the "Paint bucket" tool to fill the selection with black, there is a feather can see the blurred edge, so that the pupil.

7. Create a new layer, in which to make a gradient of the bar area, the way is "white to transparent", OK can see the lifelike reflective effect.

8. Make a few high light in the eyeball so that the eyes will appear to sparkle. Finally, the eye lashes and other details, a good effect of the eyes came out. The other eye is the same as this one, too troublesome words directly to do this only copy the past, adjust the direction and details on the OK.

Six. Take off the line color

Take off the line color This step is very important, it can make the object with the environment to become more harmonious, the effect of strong picture, so can be said to be an essential step.

Create a new transparent layer on the line layer, and then use the CTRL+G command to group the layer with the line layer. The reason for this is to make this layer of color only on the line display, that is, we can change the color of the line on this layer, so that it is no longer a rigid black lines. After the group began to color, in principle the color of the line should be slightly darker than the object dark, but the hue must be the same as the object inherent. For example, the lines on the yellow skin with a deep yellow, blue trousers on the line on the use of dark blue, in general must see clear lines, and color and environment coordination. If your manuscript is not clean enough to clean up in the previous steps, it will help you remove the spots easily and make the screen look more beautiful. (as pictured)

Seven. Make the adjustment layer

Now, CG has done more than half of it. Presumably we have a lot of PS in the layer (I have more than 10 ...). , if you want to do in the end to check the leak fill, fix the left in front of the wrong pen and the shortcomings, then we have to go to a layer by layer to find out what the wrong pen in which layer ... Don't want to be so hard? There is a way, in fact very simple, is to build a layer on the top of the adjustment, and then directly on top of the color to make modifications on the OK, after the completion of a trace will not be left behind.

Eight. Do the rendering layer.

After the adjustment, the energetic Chun-Li has already leaped on the screen. Do you think she looks more cool? So we're going to build a rendering layer and then paint the paint with a "brush" white on top of it, then use the "Gaussian blur" function in the filter, the blur radius is 3 pixels, and then the white circle becomes a conspicuous halo. The cross halo on the hand ring can be done with the path + gradient tool, these are all done, the characters really look more spiritual, hehe. (as pictured)

Nine. Do the background, wrap up

The background is a very troublesome thing, here we have a simple, on the bottom of the white background layer to make a red and yellow gradient. Create a new transparent layer, select a rectangular selection with the selection tool, and then use the gradient tool, adjust the color, and drag it to the top, easy?
