Chinese style watercolor illustration-Chinese style illustration are how to draw it out

Please ask similar to the Chinese style of this illustration design with what software to draw, and then how to do ah? photoshop, SAI can, tend to PS, need to download some special brushes, pencils and other brushes, pick their own application of the brush can be, and then and the same as the painting, the draft, the line drawings, the coloring, the refinement of the computer painting is more convenient is that it can be layered, and can adjust the tone and noise and other effects of watercolor, watercolor, watercolor illustration, watercolor illustration, watercolor illustration, and so on. Some of the inappropriate places can start over, you can adjust the tone, add mechanism and noise and other effects watercolor | cardamom tips early February (copy the ancient wind girl, with hand-painted steps) text / leaf mint First of all, the first statement: hand-painted watercolor drawings copied from the illustrator ah ah ah of the ancient watercolor collection of the "Flower Girl words," I like her style of painting. The title is a Du Mu's poem of farewell, describing a young girl of great beauty: "gracefully curling up more than thirteen, cardamom tips in early February. Spring breeze ten miles Yangzhou Road, roll on the pearl curtain is not as good." According to the usual practice, the first to a finished picture, I will name it "cardamom" (in fact, this is a semi-finished picture. Why put semi-finished product, because the finished product was ruined by my cheap hand, oooh. How did I ruin it? Please be patient and look down, we slowly see the results): Step 1: pencil drawing line drawing. Many people learning watercolor, including myself, often feel confused: in the end, do you need to draw line drawing, why some people do not need to draw line drawing? After painting for a while, according to my own experience, the answer varies from drawing to drawing. For example, if you draw a relatively simple picture, or if you draw a simple picture like flowers, plants and trees, you don't need to draw a line drawing, you can just randomly give free play to your own scene, and you may have a surprise chance to get it. However, if the picture I'm drawing now is more complicated, then I must make a line drawing, or else I will definitely draw super! Difficult! It's hard to see! (Of course, some professional watercolor artists may not need to do line drawings, so it is difficult for me to follow them, so I won't discuss it.) Some people may also ask: Why can't I always do a good job of drawing line drawings? Why don't I always look good? My answer is: if you think it doesn't look good, you must erase it and revise it carefully! Draw until it looks good to you! No one's painting can be achieved overnight, even the big touch, but also have to repeatedly and patiently modify and paint, so not to mention the beginning of watercolor you and me? Painting requires a quiet mind. I spent more than an hour on this line drawing of "Cardamom". Yes, more than an hour, especially the hand part is so difficult to paint, my paper is almost scratched. It's not a shame to draw slowly, it's a shame to draw fast and not well. I forgot to take a picture when I finished the line drawing, so in the picture below, I drew the face. Here is a brief description of the steps for the face: ① First, dip the brush in water and gently apply it to the face. ② Diluted with a lot of water, you can also add a little bit of red, dabbed with a brush and applied to the semi-dry face, ears, neck and other skin (avoiding the eyes). ③Dilute red color with a lot of water and apply it around the eyes to create a shy, flushed effect. ④ Trace the eyebrows with a small-sized brush, paying attention to the softness of the eyebrows, not too thick, otherwise they will turn into crayons. The middle part of the eyebrow should be slightly darker, and the end of the eyebrow should be slender, because it is an ancient style, the softer the drawing, the better. ⑤ Eyes. Diluted with turquoise and water painted in the eyeballs, with black painted in the center of the eyeballs, be sure to leave the highlights, so that you can draw "a pair of pupils of autumn water" effect. It should be noted that the eyelashes should be painted very light and very light, seemingly nothing, not thick and hard, root and root, respectively, then it will become a thick mascara brush into the fly foot, completely lost the sense of antiquity. Step 2: painting hair. Slightly diluted with black and water, in order not to look raw, and face color slightly integrated, you can add a little red in black. Dab it with a brush and apply it to the hair. Pay attention to the hair bun to draw hair, the details will make the picture show color more delicate. Step 3: Paint the veil sleeves and skirt band. Draw the skin of the arms in the same way as you drew the face in the first step. Then dilute the grass green color with a lot of water and gently apply it to the sleeves. Can not layer coating painted heavy, must be a large number of diluted light green gently painted, so as to paint the light, thin as cicada sleeve texture. Part of the skirt, with orange and water, flat painted at the skirt. Do not always a shade, that looks too dull, you can use a slightly darker orange stain up, highlighting the layers. Step 4: Paint the jacket. Wet the 襦irt with water, dip the brush into the grass green color, and gently apply it to the semi-dry paper, and then deepen it layer by layer, haloing it layer by layer. This process can be a bit spontaneous, and you can keep on revising and touching up the color until you are satisfied with it. Near the part of the ribbon, because of the relationship between the shadow, the color can be slightly darker. Chest can be darker green painting folds vertical lines, so that the picture from the plane to become three-dimensional. Step 5: Paint the left side of the house. House part because the skills are not in place, I actually painted quite a long time, but still did not draw the original picture of the ethereal as if the feeling of fairyland. My poor technique is: start with light colors and deepen them over and over again. Use black to deepen the green, add a lot of water to dilute, paint the first, pay attention to leave the window part. Deepen the black color, and then stain the second coat. Then deepen the green halo the third. This part is carefully compared to the original picture, repeated halo, and finally painted the window part. Do not repeat. Step 6: Draw the right side of the moon rabbit. Diluted with orange and water, painted flat on the round moon part. While the picture is not dry add light red after halo, in order to paint the moon ethereal effect, you can use tissue paper to absorb the color of the right hemisphere, creating a sense of haze. Finally paint the moon rabbit. Moon rabbit limbs, the end of the ears can add more light red halo, creating a sense of loveliness. Step 7: Perfect the cinnamon branches and other details. Use a small brush to draw details such as cinnamon branches, headbands and earrings. Whether a painting is exquisite or not mainly depends on the details, so the details should not be perfunctory because you are in a hurry. For example, the leaves of the cinnamon branches should be haloed in different colors, and the branches should be slender. The earrings should be left highlighted to emphasize the crystal clarity of the jewels. Perfect the pleated details on the jacket and embellish the veil sleeves with diamond-shaped dark patterns (yes, that's right! There is a dark pattern on the sleeves, you see~), and when the picture dries you can stamp your favorite seal (uh, I got it muddy). It would be so nice if the image stayed at this moment! I shouldn't have gone to the cheapest place later on! Let the beauty stay a little longer, tears. The last step: continue to look for shortcomings, improve the details. This step is actually very important, as mentioned above, whether a painting is exquisite or not mainly depends on the details. So, I brainstormed that my lips were not perfect enough and wanted to go for lip liner. Then, I! Hands! Bitch! Had!!! I actually shook my hand and ordered a matchmaker for the little girl! Matchmaker! Mole!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh! If there were pills of regret in the world, I'd drink them all in one go!!!! A good painting. Misery. Tears. Despite my mood being completely ruined, I patiently finished painting some details. Like embellishing the eyes for the Tamagotchi and the little embroidered patterns for the jacket. Done!!! Dang it!!! Still have to sprinkle flowers!!! It took more than eight hours, finally finished ！！！！ Let's put a comparison picture at last. The left picture is my copy, the right picture is the original picture in the illustrator's book "Flower Girl's Words". I feel pretty good about it, except for the matchmaker's mole. After all, I'm self-taught, and I've only been learning for half a year, so there's still plenty of room for improvement. Well, learn to encourage yourself! Yes, this is the end of the "Cardamom" girl! If you think it's good, gently click "love" to encourage me, I need encouragement! To you than heart!
