Digital art_2021. The Portal


Hi friends!

The other day I got an idea to try to combine wdrawing in Realistic Paint Studiowith other graphic programs - for example, Paint Tool SAI

Ready artwork

In Realistic Paint Studioyou can converting its file to .png.
This means you can work with it as a separate layer.

For the start, I will tell you how I organize my drawings inside the program.
When I open the program, I see icons with base sample files and a folder with lessons. But over time, when there are a lot of drawings, can simply get confused in the icons.
To prevent this from happening, the program has the ability to create new folders for my own artwork.

New folder

This is what's inside my works folder.
I create new file hier (with red mark button)

Create new folder

Then I choose an art style - "Drawing', because I want to draw with the same an exclusive tools as last tutorial

Choose a art style

As always I create a custom file

Create a new file

I also select a parameters as I need - in this case, I was guided by the reference
At the same step I give the file a name (below the window)

File format

I select the box with the tools I need (using right-left arrows) - the exclusive tool box is last on the box's list.

Select a tool box

For first sketch I choose a mechanical pencil

Pensil for sketch

Make some strokes for a sample - yes, it does!

Example of stroke

Sketch

Sketch

Create a new layer, select Fountain pen (with a standard nib for writing) and stroke a pencil paths

Stroke path

Unnecessary strokes can be erased using an eraser from the standard sketch tool box

If a line that should be straight looks a jitter, can choose a special tool box (first icon marked with red).
Here you can select a ruler and work with it like a real tool

Ruler tool

There are two blue round markers on the ruler.
Large center marker moves the tool across the canvas

Move the Ruler

And if I pull on the right small marker, to can expand the ruler vertically or diagonally, or as I want

Rotate the Ruler

And finally, all strokes are outlined.

Ready stroke

So, I choose Artistic brush from exclusive tool box and drawing an areas between a stones

Artistic brush

It turned out quite realistic, like traditional ink, right?

Texture of stones

To create the wood texture, I use Fountain pen again.
Also, using Fountain pen, I add small details to the texture of the stones.

Now I want to tint a stones as if it were done with ink diluted by water
I create new layer below the ink outline layer.
Choose Artistic brush

Artistic brush

Interestingly, the first brush in a set of brushes applies a color tone...

Base tones of stones

and the third (right) brightens individual areas.

Lighting of areas

Then I choose suitable color and with the same brush and a little bit with Fountain pen I draw a tint of wooden fragments

Tone of wood

In order to paint a grass and a moss on stones, I'll choose the following set of brushes named Glass brush

Glass brush

Select somt shade of green, I draw it on new layer (above all layers)

Green below

Something like this is the picture.

Moss on stones

Then I save a artwork as a png

Save in .png

So, next step I open the saving file in Paint Tool SAI
Unfortunately, transparency in PNG is not supported when saving from Realistic Paint Studio

Open in SAI

Use the Magic Wand and the Eraser I remove white area of a door.

Delete a white background

Then I create new layer below layer with door and draw a space area

Base colors

To make it feel like there is a really dark space behind the door, I add another layer below first layer and fill it with black.

More dark

Then I added a new layer and make a star texture

Star texture

Not very realistic, but attractive view

In SAI I can create stars using vector layers and Pen and Edit tools

Vector tools

Vector star

With Select and Select Eraser vector tools

Select a path

And fill on new (raster) layer

Fill for star

I like it!

View with big star

I create some star layers, resize with Ctrl+T

Big stars

Then merge them in one layer (with red mark button)

Merge layers

Then I copy new layer and blur it with Gaussian blur to make a shine for stars

View with Gaussian blur

Finally color correction in Photoshop
Artwork is ready!

Have a nice and creative day!
