Welcome to my class, student!
Welcome!
​
This is your first lesson for drawing. So we prepare the easiest part to start off, sky!
​
Drawing a beautiful scenery picture, one of the most important part is the sky. Mostly the sky can make us even more easier to understand the feeling of the artist express for.
​
And now, I'll show you how do I draw a very tradition good weather blue sky. Get your hands ready and here we go!
( Careful it's a long way down there! )
Step 1

1. Set up your canvas as this size => 1028W x 768H
2. Set your brush as AirBrush, size as 500
3. Set your color as originated sky blue (H: 3:100 , S: 092 , V: 228)
Step 2

1. Paint zig-zag from downward to upward. Paint centralized as you
paint even more upward just like the sample above.
2. You can use the Bucket tool to fill the sky easier and faster. But it will
looks different. Cruel to say it, it could be worse!
​
Q: Why you should you use AirBrush tool instead of Bucket tool?
A: Because the sky should be looks layered so you can see clearly
which is the cloud? Which is the atmosphere?
Unlike the Bucket tool, fill the whole with just one color. No cloud at
the far away, no atmosphere, just a piece of boring color splat at the
canvas.

Looks even more realistic

Bucket
Ha! Kids doodling
Step 3

1. Add the same but deeper color ( V: Previous - 90/100 )
2. Paint zig-zag from downward to upward. Paint centralized as you
paint even more upward just like previously you did.
Step 4

1. Use the Blur tool, set size as 500
2. Paint zig-zag like the previous moves, but now it's from upward to
downward. Paint centralized as you paint even more downward.
3. If the sky looks dark, you can use Airbrush tool set the color same as
the color at the first step and paint at the bottom like the sample
below, then blur the contacted area like the sample below
Repeat it until it become the one like the most bottom.



Step 5

1. Create new layer
2. Use the AirBrush tool, set size as 200 and color as grey close to
white
3. Draw the concept of the cloud. Remember, your cloud must having
the same direction. To set the direction of the cloud, first you need to
set the direction of the wind in your mind. Like the above one, the
direction can be go to far forward or it comes towards me.
Step 6

1. Once you done with your concept, then let's deal the real thing.
Use the Brush tool, set size as 80.
2. Paint it on the concept cloud, and better focus to paint in the center
and the bottom of the cloud
3. No need to paint over centralized. Make sure it looks like you almost
can but hard to see the sky through the clouds.
Step 7

1. Use Blur tool, set size as 120
2. Blur the edge and inside of the clouds
​
Warning : Do not blur the bottom of the cloud. And make sure not blur
inside of the cloud way too over. Or it would be like this.

Blur moderately

Blur overwealm
Step 8

If you can make it here, congrats to you, because you almost there!
​
1. Create a new layer
2. Use Brush tool, set size as 250, color as dark green
( H: 1:250 S:186 V:046 )
3. 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.
( The middle point of your cursor must be at the very corner )
4. Use Bucket tool and fill the line.
Step 9

1. Use Pen tool, set size as 50, color as the previous dark green but
slightly light ( H: 2:004 S:063 V:057 ), cursor type as Fuzystatic,
texture as Leaves 05
2. Paint your line and slightly peep out the head like the above
3. Set color as light green but slightly dark ( H: 2:005 S: 051 V:047 )
And paint below the light green like the bottom one

Step 10 ( Final touch )

1. Set size as 2, color as the previous light green, shape as Fuzystatic,
texture as Leaves 05
2. Throw some green dots as grass leaves has been blown by strong
wind. Remember the direction of the wind you setted in mind.
