Tutorial
Welcome to my class, student!
Welcome back!
​
This is your fourth lesson for drawing. Now, we prepared another challenging part to learn, sunset!
Sunset, known as evening nightfall. The impression of it for most of the people is evening sun mix with the night sky and stars, presented on watercolor and acrylic paintings.
​
But this time, I'll do it by using SAI with my own style. Prepare yourself and here we go!
( Careful it's a long way down there still as usual! And also, now I'm using a new compu)
Step 1
1. Set up your canvas as this size => 768W x 1024H
2. Set your brush as AirBrush, size as 500
3. Set your color as night sky blue (H: 3:162 , S: 098 , V: 170 - 024)
4. Paint the sky as the previous tutorial did

Step 2
1. Create new layer
2. Use the Pen tool, set size as 500, color as white gray ( V: 234 )
3. Serveral clicks focusly, suggest click at the middle of the upper area
4. Highlight the circle ( Ctrl + A, then left right key to adjust location)
It is important to highlight the item. Highlight just like a barricade, can limit your drawing space and not letting the stain draw out of your selected area easily. If it was not highlighted, once the stain is out of bounds, cleaning them perfectly would be a big troublesome.
( You'll know it later wheneither you're or not )
Step 3
1. Use the AirBrush, set size as 50, color as the previous but deeper
color ( V: 194 suggest )
2. Sketch the maria on the moon roughtly, not too much! It doesn't
matter if you draw the edge as long as your highlight is gone or
whatever.
​
Fun fact: Maria - the gray area or spots on the moon. As the lava
eventually solidified with the moon cooling down, later impacts would still remains visible. Shortly to say, it is the lava bed / land of the moon.
Step 4
1. Use some deeper colors
2. Paint the maria more obviously than previous one. Be sure focus on
the upper area
3. Use the moon white color if you want to adjust the maria and the
moon sea.
​
CAUTION! : Do not use the Eraser tool while adjusting. This is what will
happen if using it...
Yeah, shits always happens but, don't do it that much though..
Just ... becareful
Step 5
1. Use back the 2nd gray-white moon color ( maria's sketch ), size as
40
2. Serveral click with small drags on the moon sea as some small
meteor holes
Step 6
1. Once you it, duplicate and paste the moon
2. Use the Blur tool, set size as 100
3. Blur the second moon ( Layer 3 ) to show the moonlight
​
There are some ways to blur the moon, each way represents a different
expressions. Here are the 2 examples :
Side Bluring:
Blur around the edge
Can use it as a cloudy night
Sad, worried, oppressive expression
Full Bluring:
Blur wide and fully
Can use it as a clear night
Happy, ease, joyful expression
Step 7
1. Use the Pen tool, set size as 3-1, color as full white
2. Click the sky to draw stars
​
Tips: Big stars = size as 3, more appear at top, least at middle
Medium stars = size as 2, more appear at top and middle, least at
bottom
Small stars = size as 1, most appear at top and middle, less at
bottom
Top => Middle => Bottom
Big => Medium => Small
Step 8 ( Final touch )
Bravo! Bravo! Let's applause you had just in time at the final act!
​
1. Create a new layer and draw some clouds ( You can adding
shadows by paint a deeper gray at the bottom and the opposite direction of the moonlight )
2. Put your cursor at the bottom corner ( left or right doesn't bother you )
Then click to mark at the corner. Go to another corner, hold SHIFT
and click at the other corner make a bold line as the sea of cloud.
Repeat this phase.
( The middle point of your cursor must be at the very corner )
