Ok so now some hair for our Aurora Wings digi. The colours I used are
I start by colouring with the E11, just drawing the highlight lines. It really helps me to draw this first so I know where not to colour.
Next I take E35 and colour the hair, leaving the highlights, which I added to the top curls too, cause I forgot the first time!! The highlights are only a small space so don't be afraid to get in close with your medium colour. When I colour I will generally follow the lines of the image, or in this case, the hair.
The next step is with E47. Using this I add the darker shading, going around the edges and where I think shadow might go like under curls. You need to make sure you can still see a bit of the other colours under your shading.
Now a lot of people will say don't blend hair, but it really depends on the style and look you are after. I love blending and so I did that next, using the lightest colour, E11. This just means I went all over the whole hair with the pen, making it nice and wet too.
So now I go back over with my middle shade, E35 drawing from the darker colour, but making sure I leave in the thin highlights.
And then I reshade the deeper shadows with E47. It comes up richer because the paper is a little wet. This is also when I pull a few dark strands out into the middle colour, not many though!
Lastly I go over the highlights with my colourless blender, 0, just to make it look a little like a shine.
And it's done . I hope this has helped you!!
Look out for finishing her off soon!
So I first begin with my base, E50. I's not a large are and I fill it in quickly so it doesn't leave streaks. It is only in larger areas that I will do continuous circles with the pen to prevent colouring in marks, but as I always go over with quite a few layers I don't tend to have this issue. I'm also leaving the shoulders bare as i think it should be clothes not skin, but that is up to you!
Just a basic colouring of all skin. Then I add E21 for shading. I shade under the hair line, around the eyes, under the nose and lip, the cheek line, ears, neck and in creases and some edges.
Looks dodgy I know! So I go over all the skin and saturate it with my E50.
As you can see the lines are blended in a bit more. But it's still not enough! So I repeat with the shading and blending another two times, or more, until I'm happy.
