Final edition
In this lesson, you’ll see how I make the final adjustments to the illustration
and how I use editing tools from Procreate and Photoshop.
At this stage, we will work
with elements such as light, color, contrast, saturation and levels.
Let's start by fixing small mistakes
that you notice after the illustration ends.
You can use the Liquify or Liquefy tool.
After I finished drawing, I saw small errors
that can be fixed with some ease.
First, I'm going to put all the layers of the character apart from the background.
I'll duplicate it for sure.
Here, I will see what I can do to improve.
I'm going to take a mirror, so it’s easier to see.
I'll get Liquify or Liquefy.
This tool also exists in Photoshop.
I compare the before and after to see if I liked this one more.
Otherwise, I redo it.
This is a very subtle, very detailed part.
I see if it looks good on the other side.
You can change the expression of the character a little if you want.
Always very subtle things.
I think I liked it better that way.
So you can erase this one below.
The next step is to use a tool called Gaussian Blur
or Gaussian Blur.
I will duplicate this layer,
I'm going to the bottom layer,
I go in Gaussian Blur
and I will increase.
Notice that there is an aura emerging behind the girl.
Thus, it highlights the character
and a difference between it and the fund.
You have to see how much blur behind you want
and you can decrease the opacity later.
I want just a little, I don't want it to be so marked.
And I'm also going to decrease the opacity.
I will finish by signing the drawing.
Now that we've made the final adjustments to Procreate
let's go to Photoshop to adjust color, contrast and saturation,
and save our file.
Now I will start the final editing in Photoshop.
I'll see what I can do to improve the design.
Let's try to edit brightness and contrast first.
I'll change the brightness a little.
A little contrast.
Let's look at hue and saturation.
I will saturate just a little too.
These details are very small, but in the end they can make a difference.
I'm going to switch a little bit more to red in Color Balance.
Slightly to magenta.
Slightly yellow.
Photoshop was made just for that: editing.
It has numerous tools
that you can experiment with and see what works with your drawing.
I think this color edition is fine.
I'll see if you can apply some filter.
I will duplicate the layer,
I'm going to Filter,
Filter Gallery.
Here is just the layer of the selected character.
Let's see what I can do.
This one I liked better, I think it was a nice effect.
I'll lower the brush so as not to distort so much.
If the filter has a very strong effect,
you just decreased its opacity.
Now, I have finished editing my character's colors.
Now we know how to make final edits in Procreate and Photoshop.
In the next class, we will publish the final project.
