Airbrush + Opacity slider = Highlights & Shading

Made a dragon from scratch, just because.

a way to shade is making a layer that covers the parts you want shaded with black then losing the opacity making the black mix in with the color its over making it darker this should also work with white and example can be seen on this drawing

I actually spent time on this one and I'm surprisingly kinda happy with the result!!!! Idk how to do lighting, I just experiment with layer opacity oof

I cheated and lightened the opacity so here's the version as it was made in MS paint. I forgot to color the shadows near the side part!!

If you're having trouble with sketching, one method I use is to sketch a pose thumbnail and make silhouettes and then work backwards by carving away at the blobs with the eraser (like sculpting). Then drop the opacity and sketch on a new layer above it.

I play around with the opacity of color and lighting to make things look a bit more decent

I use a bright purple multiply layer (hot pink also works for me) on ~20% opacity on top of my flat colours and then just kinda,,,wing it
usually it kinda helps me to fill the whole thing in with the shading colour and then erase the parts that are lit

3. เนื่องด้วยตอนนั้นไม่มีพื้นฐานทางศิลปะมากนักจึงไม่สามารถใช้สีได้ตามต้องการ และไม่ค่อยชอบสีดำ เพราะมันดูแข็งไป เลยใช้สีเทา แทน บวกด้วยความขี้เกียจจิ้มเลือกสีจึงปรับค่า opacity เพื่อความสะดวก มันก็เลยงอกออกมาเป็นแบบนี้ในเวลาต่อมา +

I DID IT I FINISHED THE THING

I spent like all night figuring out the perfect bg (& goin back to my ol' 2008-2013 multi-texture/opacity layering ways) BUT IT'S DONE AND I'M HAPPY WITH IT

I love soft colour pallets, I use them a lot in my art.

The first picture is a normal art of mine. With line art and shading and everything. The second picture is mine as well, but I turned the opacity of the bucket fill tool down, which makes the colours appear more soft.

Reduced Line Opacity version..!

I read that using a low opacity overlay of a picture of jelly beans helps create those super subtle variations in skin tone. It's really handy! (On the right you can see the overlay. In the left it's blended into the final result. No more candy, just a subtle range of tones)

Thinking about just not lowering the opacity on the shading layer anymore
