Watercolor starry sky step

I like the clarity of watercolor, and I have been groping for the starry sky that I have drawn for a long time. Finally, I have some experience. Let's record it.

Let's talk about painting with the last painting.

As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must sharpen his tools first. The first thing he talked about was tools:

Pen: red grease 00, commonly known as mop pen, has excellent water storage.

Watercolor: Wu Cai 36 colors

Paper: Baoding Humboldt 300g cotton pulp paper.

Auxiliary materials: water tape (masking paper or manual tape can also be used), five-bead Bai Mo solution, toothbrush (optional), two watering cans in one water tank, and paper towels.

Ok, you can start when you are ready.

The most important thing in the starry sky is to control the water. It should be clear, not burnt, and there should be no water marks.

Many online tutorials say that you can use a hair dryer. I advise a little white like me not to use it, because it's too ~ bad ~ good ~ controlled ~ controlled ~!

The first step is paper pasting. I used a book sealed on all sides. In order to save paper, I divided it in two and separated it with water tape. I didn't take this step.

The second step is to brush the water. Pay attention here, never brush paper with water. Looking at the light, there is a layer of furry water on the paper, but it doesn't flow.

Otherwise, the color flow is not easy to control in the first step of coloring.

The third step is to paint for the first time.

Use color, yellow.

Use color, green.

Use colors, beautiful blue, magenta.

Note that the color is from light to dark. The strokes are from outside to inside, leaving the brightest part.

The next step is waiting. Wait three or four minutes before you do it, and then deepen it twice.

The fourth step is the second deepening. Color matching beautiful blue and purple mixed.

At this time, the strokes are from the outside to the inside, bit by bit. Remember not to smear. Otherwise, the pen mark will be erased.

Draw it and wait. Wait for about six minutes.

The fifth step is to deepen it for three times.

Add a little black to the blue-purple just now. Continue to deepen around, forming a dark part of the starry sky.

Waiting for work.

Step six, draw the scene.

Step 7: Scatter stars and take photos.

Points for attention when scattering stars. After the pen is dipped in Bai Mo solution, tap it a few times in other places first, so as to avoid large ink spots directly damaging the picture.
