Portrait of Sipahi Photoshop Tutorial

For this tutorial I will be using Adobe Photoshop and Wacom Tablet to create the finished result. I will also be using techniques and methods that I feel most comfortable with when coloring. I suggest that after following this tutorial, you find out what works best for you.


Step 1 Sketching and Opening a new File

First step is to open a new file with the size 800x828. But of course it is up to your wish if you would like to make a different file size you can change the file via the help of Image/Canvas Size. Maybe I can change it later if I don't like the canvas size. The first step of the final image is the drawing. I started with some quick sketches to get a feeling for my character. Here is a simple sketch work I did with Photoshop. I don't go too much into details. I'm just trying to find out how I want him look like.

Step 3: Choosing brush

The next step is choosing the brush. For my character I use only standard brushes with some different pen pressure settings.

After that from brush panel choose "Other Dynamics" and make the setting as seen on the below picture. When painting, it is very helpful to have these settings for your pen.

Now I draw some brush strokes to see my new brush. I do think this brush setting will do very good painting work .

Step 4: Coloring the Sketch work

Now I start coloring and give the basic tone coloring to the sketch. I put some colors for the background. I try with some colors for to get more quicker result how the character face is going to look.

Here is the result. Since I already decided upon the colors, now I can start to add details. The light is from background and a little red color . I'll now begin to detail the face. The cloth need to be worked on too. You don't have too over detail everything for now. I just add some basic detail for my character at this step.
