There are many photo-to-illustration tutorials on the Internet, but only photos with pure scenery can look good, and people's photos always have the feeling of "knowing at a glance that they are photos". So I added some hand-drawing on the basis of the online tutorial to make the final effect more like hand-drawing.
First of all, we should turn the photos into illustrations. There are many such tutorials, and the best one is: PS saves the hand cancer party for three minutes to learn the hand-drawn illustration style. You can refer to it, so I won't repeat it here. The effect is as follows:
If there is any deviation in the effect made by everyone, it may be that I adjusted the color when I made it (I can't remember it for too long).
In fact, after the first step, it has been very feel, but I prefer the animation style, and the characters above are still partial to oil painting. So, according to the characters in the photo, make a new line draft and color it, and it's done:
Poof, I'm kidding, but the script really needs to be typed first, so you can use your imagination. You don't have to stick to the original picture, just handle the perspective and interaction of the scene. In order to see clearly, I reduced the transparency of the background:
Please forgive my 50-point hand-drawing skill (covering my face). In fact, no matter how you paint it, it won't be too bad after coloring the beautiful scenery.
Here you can refer to some hand-painted coloring techniques. I'm Xiao Bai, so I won't embarrass myself. However, it can provide a simple way to pick some bright and bright colors and draw solid colors for people. The simpler it is, the more hand-drawn illustration it feels. Or refer to the color matching in the works of Miyazaki Hayao and Xinghai City, all of which are very bright. Coloring effect:
Finally, combining characters and scenes, pay attention to the occlusion relationship (in fact, the girl behind the pillar in the above picture has already handled the occlusion relationship), and you can add some shadows to enhance the sense of reality. Ps can only erase a little of the original words in the soap chip. Another very important element is the sky, which can set off the atmosphere very strongly In terms of hue, my scene is a little yellow-green, so I also chose the sky with this hue. There can't be too many clouds in the sky, otherwise it will steal the host's attention and the audience will be attracted to the sky involuntarily. I chose Makoto Shinkai's Sky, and the final draft is as follows:
This article only talks about the basics. Interested children's shoes can be hand-painted after in-depth study, and you can draw more awesome works. But painting in photos is more important than technology, such as the works of Swedish illustrator JohanTh_rnqvist:
Expand your imagination, I believe everyone can create interesting illustrations with your photos.
Introduction of hand-drawn illustrations The introduction of hand-drawn illustrations is as follows:
The foundation of hand-drawn illustration: Sketch foundation is the stepping stone and cornerstone of all art and painting. I started as a sketch student. If they have a good sketch foundation, they can draw, create and express fluently. Four basic sketches: black, white and gray proportion, sense of volume, sense of space and sketch practice. Copying is a shortcut, but copying should not be described blindly, but should be interpreted and described in combination with knowledge structure.
Painting steps: handle the relationship between black, white and gray in the whole picture. Create a sense of volume, pay attention to the relationship between emptiness and emptiness, adjust the relationship between emptiness and emptiness, and pay attention to the objects in front.
Scientific hand-drawn illustration training methods: first, sketch, a large number of sketch exercises, enhance their muscle memory, exercise observation ability; Secondly, the cartoon line drawing turns the line drawing into the instinct of the hand, so that the hand can be drawn before the brain reacts, so that the line will pass; Finally, watercolor practice, watercolor can exercise our color matching ability and enhance color sense, which will be of great help to the drawing of hand-drawn illustrations in the later period.
Key points of hand-drawn illustration: When we draw a character, if we don't have a thorough understanding of the structure, it may be ok to keep an action, but once we draw it, the structure of the character may be deformed, so we should practice the skills of the character.
We can grasp the structure by sketching. First of all, according to the figure painting, draw different angles and grasp the key frames. After mastering it, you can try to draw different movements yourself to increase the difficulty of practice and try to understand it thoroughly. Learning hand-drawn illustrations must keep a normal mind.
How to draw hand-drawn illustrations? What materials are needed? First, how to draw
1, geometric sketch modeling training.
We should start with geometry such as cube, circle and combination. Only by understanding geometry can we simplify some complicated things and draw them more easily. It is difficult for students to master the shape, proportion and perspective of geometry in the initial stage, and it is easy to draw deformation, which requires a lot of practice and comparative study and revision among students.
2, the study of stick figure.
Similar to comics, it is relatively easy to master. In the teaching process, firstly, the teacher arranges students to draw a simple illustration of characters and send some information about the five senses, head, feet and hands to the students for reference. Secondly, in the process of painting, students find that the hand is a difficult part to draw. Teachers use the knowledge of structure to explain, and use the methods of picture appreciation and painting demonstration to let students understand the structure of joints.
3. Sketch training. Use simple lines to train the characters' scenes simply and enrich their own library materials. After these basic trainings, figure painting becomes difficult, especially the expression of background or content. Teachers demonstrate and comment one by one, so that students can understand, accept and solve problems faster, and the future design and creation will be much easier, laying a solid foundation for hand-drawn illustrations.
Second, materials.
1. Hand-drawn pen: drawing pencil, mechanical pencil, stylus and signature pen. These pens are the most commonly used tools when drawing the first draft of a design.
2. Drawing instruments: ruler, T-square, curve ruler, tape measure, magnifying ruler, graduated ruler, triangular plate, cutting ruler, universal plotter, compasses, etc. Drawing tools should be accurate, precise and high-quality products, and small errors are good drawing tools.
3. Coloring equipment: palette, tray, pen washing, color label, etc.
4. Hand-painted tools: paper cutters, various art knives, carving knives and adhesive tapes.
Extended data:
Illustration is an art form. As an important visual communication form of modern design, it occupies a specific position in modern design with its intuitive image, true sense of life and beautiful appeal. It is widely used in many fields of modern design, involving cultural activities, social undertakings, commercial activities, film and television culture and so on.
The development of illustration art has a long history. From the world's oldest illustration cave mural to the Japanese folk print ukiyo-e painting in the Edo period, all of them show the development of illustration. Illustrations first developed with the changes of newspapers and books in the early19th century.
Its real golden age began in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. At that time, the illustrations just separated from art works were obviously drawn, and most of the authors engaged in illustrations were professional painters. Later, influenced by the school of abstract expressionism, they turned from concrete to abstract. It was not until the 1970s that illustrations returned to the realistic style.
