Tutorial - Painting a fantasy creature in Photoshop using a tablet
I used this brush that can be found under the standard brush list in photoshop and had the opacity set to around 30% for the sketch |
|
|
We start of with a simple sketch on a own layer. I added a human character just to show how big the creature is
 |
In step 2 I just shaded it alittle, The opacity on the brush should be around 10% here.
 |
Here I started adding some colours. I still had the opcity set to around 10%
 |
Some more colour and some higlights
 |
Here we go back and give the background layer some colour, I decsided to go with a desert landscape so I used some yellow colours.
 |
Since the layers with the creature showed up somewhat transparent after I added the background I filled the creature with some more colours.
 |
Here I gave the painting some more colours and started working with the shadows
 |
I created a new layer and set the blending to overlay and paintied the creature with some red/orange colours.
 |
Then I went back to background layer and created one on top of that and had the blending set to overlay. I needed the desert to look more I warm desert so I used an orange colour for that
 |
 |
Started working on the deteils on the head and horns, and the shading on the belly.
 |
Some more work on the deteils on both the character and creature and some highlights on the nose and eye.
 |
Cleaned up around the creature using the bg colour and the opacity set to around 80%.
And its finished
 |
This is just an example on how to paint in photoshop, I worked some more on the creature and it ended up like this |
 |
Hope you liked the tutorial
