For the ships, use the exact same process you used earlier with the rocks: silhouettes or shapes first, then detail.įor the clouds, start with the Hard Round brush and in the Brush pop-up adjust the Hardness to around 50%. Maybe you feel like the image is missing something.įor this painting, I wanted to add some ships flying through the canyon and some clouds to break up the sky a bit.
Maybe a detail you’ve already painted could use a bit more work. TThe first thing you should do is to take a hard look at the paintingĭuring this step, the first thing you should do is to take a hard look at the painting and ask yourself what could be better. Remember, as you move further back in the composition details should become less and less apparent and colours should desaturate. Repeat this process for each of the defined layers of the composition. If the silhouette layer underneath isn’t dark enough, you can then follow up by painting some shadows between the recesses in the rocks. These will be the portions of the rocks that the light illuminates the most. Now using the Hard Round brush, start by adding some random organic shapes to define the tops of all the rock faces. By doing this you can begin to quickly apply paint to the new layer without worrying about cleaning it up later. Any paint applied to the new layer will now only be visible where the silhouette layer underneath it has opaque pixels. If you create a new layer above the layer with a silhouette on it, you can alt+left click the space between the layers and clip the new layer to the existing layer. Here, Photoshop's clipping layers will be helpful.
The next step can easily be the most time-consuming: we need to find the details in each layer of the composition. Photoshop’s clipping layers will help find the details in each layer of the composition
