It can be seen from the renderings that the author’s composition is very creative. With the rolling mountains as the background, it is majestic. Using huge Ganoderma lucidum as the foundation and adding classical and prosperous architecture is really enviable. The waterfall at the back adds a lot of comfort to the picture. . .
Final effect
1. Sketch: According to the idea in your mind, create a 20*15cm white background canvas with a resolution of 400 in PS, and then quickly sketch out what you want, without too many details, pay attention to perspective. .
2. About the brush settings of this picture: This picture does not use any materials, and the brushes used are very common, which are the brushes that come with the software. Set: Other dynamics, check this option, and set them to: Pen pressure, (note: the hardness of the brush will be adjusted as needed when drawing. Mountains, rocks, buildings, etc. all use relatively high hardness, water vapor, clouds, mist, etc., the hardness is almost zero). The superior performance of Youji PF8080 is sufficient for the drawing process. used in. See the picture below for brush settings:
3. Drawing of tone. First set the blending mode of the previous draft layer to: Multiply. Then create a new normal layer below it and use a brush with a hardness of 0 to spray out the approximate color effect.
4. Drawing of the main rocks: Lower the transparency of the sketch to about 30%, then create a normal layer above the background layer just now, and draw the main rocks. This step requires patience in drawing details.
5. For buildings, plants, etc., you don’t need to deliberately adjust the color of the brush. You can just pick it up nearby. You need to have a rough idea of the basic color of the object you want to express. In this way, a separate layer is created for drawing, which facilitates subsequent color adjustment and modification (new normal layers are independently created for drawing other objects, and the instructions will not be repeated later. You can see the layer setting illustration).
6. The huge Ganoderma lucidum growing on the cliff: When I was imagining the idea, a huge Ganoderma lucidum grew across the sky. In order to be more confident when drawing the theme of Ganoderma lucidum later, I first found a reference picture and drew two small ones. , each flower is drawn on a separate layer, which makes it easy to adjust the position.
7. The main body of Ganoderma lucidum and architecture: There is a large Ganoderma lucidum with some pavilions built on it. Similarly, a new normal layer is created for drawing. This step also requires patience in drawing. The pavilion refers to Crescent Moon Spring:) For details The effect is as shown in the figure:
8. Review the big effects. During the drawing process, I often stop writing to look at the overall effect of the picture. I adjust the position of the objects according to the correct perspective, adjust the colors of some details, and repeat this over and over again for in-depth characterization. When I feel that it is almost the same, I move the sketch to that layer. Close your little eyes.
9. Drawing of secondary scenes. Now you can put down the subject temporarily and draw a distant view, the mountains in the mist, the clouds in the sky, etc. Just draw on the background layer. You can turn off the layers that were used to draw the subject before. This makes it easier to grasp. You don’t need too many details, just make sure to adjust the softness and hardness of the brush from time to time.
10. Draw waterfalls: Waterfalls will bring vitality and agility to the picture and need to be treated carefully. First create a normal layer, below the Ganoderma lucidum, it will be blocked by the Ganoderma lucidum, so that it will not affect the previously drawn objects. Use a brush with a hardness of 0% to draw, and constantly adjust the brush size to get the effect and how to use the layer. See the picture below:
11. Draw the waterfall in depth: Enhance the feeling of the waterfall flying and the splashing water mist. Some of it is sprayed on the Ganoderma lucidum, so another layer is created above all the previously drawn objects.
12. Creating the clouds and atmosphere: It is almost completed now, but I feel that the picture is still lack of vitality, so I create a normal layer again, and use a brush with a hardness of 0% to spray on the top of all layers. Some clouds, mist, light, flying birds, etc. make the picture more vivid.
13. Color adjustment. Since I have been painting according to the initial color feeling during the painting process without deliberately paying attention to the depth of the color, the picture now looks a bit gray, so use the Levels tool at the top of the layer to appropriately adjust the contrast of the entire picture. , it’s done:)
