Hiiii uh idk how to do this but I hope this is helpful? Requested by @AMB3RP00L (IRL BESTIEEEE) Okay so uh yeah let’s get started If u wanna follow along all u need is a digital art program that has clipping layers and multiply/add, a finger, and an hour of time (roughly) Step 1 - get it sketched out! As you can see mine’s super messy Step 2 - refine line art! I uh colored the lanterns yellow for like no reason uh yeah don’t do that Step 3 - block in color! And also add eye detailing if you wish (click the purple button for eye tut and green to get back to normal one) Step 4 - shading! Add a multiply layer in ANY COLOR BUT BLACK. Black makes it look dull and unsaturated. Think about where the light comes from and using the eraser tool, remove shading from those areas. Set opacity on the layer to 75 percent or lower. Use a blur tool to soften edges. Step 5 - (optional) additional shading from other light source! That could be the moon, sun, fire, water reflections, etc. I used an airbrush tool on a soft light clipping layer Step 5 - (optional) add an overlay clipping layer, of the same color as the multiply layer but lighter. This helps add to the ambience and makes the light look sharper and brighter. Step 6 - background!, make sure it fits the shading, my shading was dark blue because that’s what the sky was colored. Step 7 - (optional) add an additional overlay layer to make the clouds/background appear darker and more nighttime-y Uh yeah then ur done!!
Character not mine !!yet!! (DTA) Art by meee
