Watercolor Characters in Artistic Illustration —— Flower Girl in Meditation —— Watercolor Illustration Steps

Becoming a butterfly, an original hand-painted watercolor character illustrator, received an invitation from a special editor last week to help them draw illustrations according to the selected articles. As a patient with late procrastination, it took a week to give them a picture _ (:_ "∞) _

That story is probably about a woman who went through a life-and-death parting, then turned from a depressed person to a strong woman in the workplace, and then refused to leave her lover at that time to get back together. Blabla (uninformed c (` д _) ノ┻┻┻┻┻┻┻┻) Interested friends can look at the topics of world events.

As usual, put a picture first. Quite simply, a woman grows butterfly wings, which symbolizes transformation. It's that simple and rude! ε-(__`; The author of the article seems to like blue very much and always uses blue to describe this woman, so I also use blue as the main color of the picture.

Type the manuscript. Because I want to treat the picture as a pure color effect, and I expect that only a part will be crossed out, in order to prevent the picture from being too single, the line drawing needs to be very detailed, meticulous to every hair (there is no line drawing for fear that my hand will break _ (:_ "∞) _)

Then start coloring. The first is to tick the line. I'm used to eating the hardest first. So I started to hook my hair. Although they all use blue hooks, they should be changed to avoid being too monotonous. The density and thickness of lines should be different. At the same time, I also use a dark blue hook in the dark and a shallow lake blue hook in the light.

As for the smoothness of lines, there is nothing to say. Still have to practice, or your hands will shake _ (:_∞) _

After hooking the hair, there are other lines besides wings. By the way, color your eyes. They are all blue, and soon ~ ε-(_ _ `; )

Then you can shadow, just use light blue and purple to express the relationship between light and shade, and use light red to draw lips. Why use purple? Uniform colors look better (I think)

Finally draw wings. This wing belongs to the most beautiful butterfly in the world-the goddess of light. It is about the following

Because the theme of the character on the right is just crossing, the color is just pale. In order to prevent the imbalance of the picture, the color of the left wing should not be too heavy, otherwise it will appear too solid on the left and too empty on the right. The processing here is more transparent.

First smudge the light blue within the wings with wet painting, and pay attention to the white patches on the wings to leave white. When it's dry, use a slightly darker blue hook to draw details, such as the meridians of wings.

Then, erase the pencil line of the manuscript. Colored places are not easy to erase, so try to be light when typing.

Last step, spray some. In order to reflect the flash of the butterfly goddess of light, a toothbrush with bristles is dipped in white pigment, and then the bristles are touched with fingers dipped in water, and white dots are sprayed on the screen. The size of the dot can be controlled by water, and the dot will be smaller if there is less water on hand. The density can be controlled by the distance from the paper and the spraying times. The specific effect will be known by trying it yourself ~ ε-(_ _ `; )。 Finally, dip the pen in white paint and dot it according to the effect, and it's done ~

Flower girl in meditation-watercolor illustration steps are busy writing manuscripts every day, and only when they are finished do they have time to draw. Usually, brushes, paints and paper are all carried with you. I copied an illustration in the coffee shop and shared it with you.

1, determine the position of the main flower and the characters, and draw them with a pencil first.

2. It's much easier to finish all the line drafts except the main flower.

3. The back of the petal is pink with red and water, and the inside of the petal is red and khaki in full bloom. Be sure to faint when you are wet, or there will be water marks at the transition place.

4. After all the petals are finished, start drawing leaf buds and branches. Buds are blue and dark green, and leaves and branches are dark green and light green. It won't look boring.

5, girls' hair, I first spread a layer of background color with khaki, dry it, then spread a layer of black, and then gently wipe off the highlights. The clothes are made of light blue with water and lightly covered.

6, the overall completion. It's casual to shoot while painting in front, and the coffee shop is dimly lit, so the shooting effect is not very good. After the finished product is shot, the brightness of the mobile phone is improved and it looks much better ~

I hope you like it. Come on together ~

Watercolor character skin color drawing tutorial. Jason Chung's children's illustration class is coming to an end ... and I'm still making up my previous homework (crying). In watercolor figures, it is a small difficulty to draw the skin color of the characters. Although some brands of watercolor pigments are matched with skin color, they are far less varied than their own skin color.

Here, record the color matching method of a watercolor character's skin color and the painting method of his face.

1. Rubens watercolor pigment

2. Korean bonus Gou Xianbi, Qiuhongzhai dandelion, pine branches, handmade white clouds brush.

3. Pen container-IKEA candlestick

4. Medium and coarse watercolor books

The above tools are commonly used when I draw watercolors. Of course, the brand of materials is not limited, and you can use your usual tools. However, it should be noted that please prepare at least 3 watercolor pens when drawing skin color.

This is the original. But the original author painted it with a computer, and we converted it into a watercolor version.

Color matching method

Our skin color belongs to orange with low saturation, so now we find the following three colors in the paint box:

1. Medium yellow

2. Red

going green and environmental protection

The watercolor brand you use is different from mine, as long as you find a similar color.

Mix the above colors 1, 2, 3 in a certain proportion. There is no exact quantity here, so you need to keep trying. First, mix red and yellow together to make orange. Because orange is bright, you need a little cold green to neutralize it. If the color is too bright, we can also add water to dilute the pigment continuously to make it lighter. Finally, it may be color 4.

After adjusting the skin color, take another pen and choose a slightly lighter blue color similar to No.5 in the paint box. Dilute with water and become the "dark part" of the face.

Prepare another pen and use the red in the paint box as the color of blush. Mix a little skin color and turn it into orange.

To sum up, if you are a beginner in painting skin color, you need to prepare the following four pens:

1. Toner pen

2. A pen is in the dark part of the face.

3. Blush pen

4. Clear water pen

(As mentioned above, prepare at least three pens. At this time, the blush pen can also be used temporarily. Because beginners are afraid of drawing in a hurry, they can prepare four pens. )

Coloring step

Before coloring, type out the manuscript with a pencil, and then erase the pencil trace with an eraser, leaving a faint trace that can be seen clearly. Because the pencil print stained with watercolor is not easy to wipe.

We use wet painting to paint skin color. The so-called wet painting method is to paint before the paint is dry. So the next step is to draw the skin color in one breath. Are you ready?

Take out the skin tone pen and easily draw the skin tone in the following positions:

1. Above the eyes

2. Nose

Step 3 blush

Take out a clean pen and scrape some water off the side of the bucket. Slowly dizzy skin color. Pay attention to the position of eyes, face and other edges, and don't faint.

Take out the dark pen and sweep the dark color around your neck. Then use a transparent pen to rub at the junction of light blue and skin color in the dark, so that the two colors naturally blend.

Take a blush pen and add a little red to the skin color to make it orange red.

Before the paint is wet, quickly paint the cheeks and ears with red. Then take a clean pen and slowly faint, and naturally blend with the surrounding skin color.

At this point, the skin color of the face has been basically completed.

Because today we mainly talk about the painting of skin color, so the next steps are simple.

The order of painting below is the background color and dark part of hair; The background color of the clothes (because it is the head, it is not necessary to draw the clothes carefully); Carefully depict the details of hair;

At this time, the face has been slightly dry, depicting facial details; Draw branches on your head when your hair is dry; Draw a ribbon in front of the collar after the clothes are dry;

Tick the line; Finally, carefully adjust according to the picture.

Actually, it's a bit like makeup. Girls who have a makeup foundation may know better, haha. You can also see how important eyeliner and eyebrows are to a girl. Hook up the eyeliner and eyebrows, and suddenly there is a god.

I have drawn a line drawing of this picture before:

Thanks for watching ~
