P_6 Basic Masking & Lighting Techniques


In the Brushes: palette (16), choose the Airbrush as your brush and Digital Airbrush as the variant.  In version 5.n you would also select Cover as the Method and Soft Cover for the Subcategory.  In this version those choices are found in the Brush Controls palette under the General section (17).  Press the (B) key to activate the brush or press on the Paintbrush icon in the Tools palette.  In the Controls: Brush palette (18) set the Size slider to 12.0 and the Opacity slider to 50%.  An easy way to set exact values is to click on the number and type in the numerical value instead of using the slider.  In the Colors palette select a slightly darker Orange as your Primary Color and paint is some shadows on your pumpkin.  You will have something that looks like this (19).  Save your file.

 

 

Now is the time to make a few decisions about your pumpkin. I decided mine needs some         more teeth, and different looking eyes.  To accomplish this I selected the Pumpkin layer and closed the Layers section to save space.  In the Objects palette, click on Masks to expand the section(20).
