I never got how to use that shading layer =.= normally I just alpha lock the layer and do soft shading


but never the less a very insighful and humorous and entertaining tutorial! Thank you!


(I couldn't stop laughing after I read your shading stage)

hi what lightnings and filters do you use?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Ry-Spirit In reply to kuroso [2013-11-19 13:33:59 +0000 UTC]

just sharpen for the filter. and for lighting i start a new layer and color in some orange/red/yellow on area i wanna be brighter or glow. then i change that layer to color dodge as well as other layer options to see if it works, i also alter the opacity of that layer to compare how vibrant it is.

LOVED IT!!!!! ^______^ Starting with a grey scale makes my life so much easier when it comes to coloring because now I all need to focus on is the colors I wan and then pushing this pic further by popping out highlights, shadows and adding some reflective light.

ynne-black In reply to Vonny88 [2013-11-08 21:23:11 +0000 UTC]

I think this way it's also more fun, first you focus on shading and THEN you have fun with colours and effects

;u; The last magic step is always the hardest for me to pull off, my final work is always a little too dull on DA.

Ry-Spirit In reply to MegaRezfan [2013-11-10 11:05:38 +0000 UTC]

Hi rez i just checked out your gallery. Well if u really wanna bring more life to your work. U can always turn up the saturation a bit. And make the shade darker while the non shade area brighter to create a greater contrast. Alternatively adding little reflections and like a single dot of white light spot is also a great idea!

Awesome tutorial

How do you make your magicwand work this way? Mine never chooses the area correctly, no matter how precise my lineart is :c

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Ry-Spirit In reply to ynne-black [2013-11-07 23:08:42 +0000 UTC]

U can also alter the strength of the magic wand. Err theres a number on top that u can change, the higher the number the more powerful it becomes.

ynne-black In reply to Ry-Spirit [2013-11-08 21:22:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh... these settings never seem to work for me. When I give it average power, there's a lot of space left - and then I expand the selection by 1 pixel - and it's too big! :c So I choose more power, and it makes weird edges...


I guess I'll have to figure out how to make better linearts or something like that.

Ry-Spirit In reply to ynne-black [2013-11-08 21:48:55 +0000 UTC]

If u expand by 1 pixel n its too big. Ur page setting might b too small. I suggest workin on an a4 page with 300 dpi. Thats wat i use

Thanks a lot for this, but could you make a tutorial for JUST the magic step now! Hahaha. How did you give it life man!!

Ry-Spirit In reply to carlitothegreat [2013-11-07 23:09:57 +0000 UTC]

Mayb i will! Cos theres actually more than just clicking. Somtimes u need to expand or contract the area

Amazing, Ry!


I had one question, dit you make this in Adobe Photoshop?

If so, would you care to tell me what kinds of brushes you used?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Ry-Spirit In reply to glitch-ish [2013-11-07 23:11:18 +0000 UTC]

Yes photoshop. I just use a circuler brush on hard. And make that opacity ranging from 30% to 90% dependin on the situation.

glitch-ish In reply to Ry-Spirit [2013-11-08 14:16:21 +0000 UTC]

Woah.
I've been messing around with PS for some time now,
and I've never been able to pull off such neat lineart.

I guess that comes with practice. How to create smooth steady hand lines. Just draw a lot and u will grt used to it ^^
