Cloud strife tutorial

2. Start sketching the figure using hard round with little size, at this stage, I don’t really put much detail in this stage

BASE COLOR, Face, Eyes, Lips3. Start making base skin color, choose random color suitable for the skin, I’m start with low opacity first and at the same time study the color palette, it might change depends on the mood

4. Start to blend, you can make new layer for the shadow and refine the face. Try to combine with other brush to blend like this following brush; spatter +air brush +soft brush, add new color and blend it and change the opacity too
5. Repetitive blending is important, sometime it is such hard task and boring. At this stage, I often make two layers (maximum for my pc) and try to merge it from time to time, and not forget to add color hair ambiance which is suitable for the atmosphere of the image with low opacity. To blend the color in this stage, I use spatter brush + soft brush and blur it some parts and add some other brush too which is all available in Photoshop 7. Also, you can start to add color for eyes and lips too (look at the color palette)
