[process] soft theurgy boys
🕑 Added 2019-10-01 00:00:02 +0000 UTCHere's the process for this drawing!
1. Thumbnail sketch in my physical sketchbook! I like doing thumbnail / ideation sketches with a pen because it keeps me from getting too particular about it.
2. digital sketch
3. clean lineart - I used the stumpy pencil brush as I've really been liking the slight textured look it has
4. color flats
5. simple shading and blushies with a soft brush - shading on this is done with a dull blue color on multiply
6. another round of shading - this one was just put on the whole drawing and then erased where needed to get that backlit feel
7. Color adjustments - here I added a color adjustment layer to up the warm tones to help with that warm/soft feel
8. Added an overlay and screen layer - the overlay layer has a blue at the bottom and an orange at the top, both subtle gradients - the screen layer is the soft lighting on the edges with a light yellow color.
9. Added another screen layer under the lineart to give it a bit more of a glowy feel without washing it out, added the hair shinies on this layer too. And then added a couple stray hairs for Des! All done!
