LABORATORY
TRIP ON COLOR GRAPHICS
(C) MONARCH
Taking this opportunity (as in the Field of Miracles), I
want to say hello to all of our readers, users of the immortal
Speccy and generally, all the creative people. Hi Gomel!
As usual, for lack of (especially range) materials,
Editor starts to get each and every one: yes napishm write ...
Okay, this time ;-) and you have got to write this glitch
although the works at the school I could only write off, and
then the errors ;-)
I've read similar articles, where one of the authors contends
they say it in one day can draw about a dozen full-fledged
screenshots. Perhaps, but FunTop I had not noticed, the fish saw
and valuable work is not enough to be ... Personally, I have,
to create Scrin takes several hours to several days. Creative
processes should not act hastily. I'll try to describe how it
happens with me.
I will not hide many of my pictures sketched (which I am
Many blamed (they say pop, but it's not just me doing it), and
why not on pisyuke all - a solid scanner. Personally, I paint
what I like (judging from the reviews not only for me) and what
the soul is, or prefabricated Scrin gets in the archives :-(.
I gather, if possible, all my favorite pictures
(Meaning on paper) a daddy that otkseryu, and that simply
pencil sketch and, of course, if possible, leave
original. Sooner or later, mature or useful ...
I had to, such as drawing the northern lights. From memory,
not I have never seen this miracle, had to look at the old
sovdepovskih cards ;-). In short, for starters needed - Archive
(Or a phenomenal visual memory), sore ;-) imagination and
graphic editor.
And now the very thing for which all and was started -
Technology color image.
First, do a sketch with thin lines (dark ink on
bright paper), then paint the paper in the color I needed.
For example, I need a red eye on the blue face (example is on
the disk, the file "mongraph.C"). Turn the brightness grid
(Luminance checkerboard box) and move the sketch on the screen,
so that eye, as best as possible fit into familiarity, (Figure
1).
Happened. Further, under the eye color in paper
in red. Then paint the rest: red tongue
white foam at the mouth and the blue face - it's all color of
the paper (Figure 2).
Next, I start to work in black ink. Paints the background,
Dark fragments of the picture and shadows, to get what you can
seen in Figure 3, but it's still semi-finished product.
This is where it begins the main work of the figure, between
Example 3 and Example 4. At this stage the drawing must be
corrected somewhere, somewhere distort (of course within
reasonable limits), somewhere to put the shade in order to
disguise areas the figure on which the visible boundaries of
familiarity with the different colors of paper. And of course,
to finish the picture itself, bringing it as in the words
Lelik, "to complete condition."
There are many more nuances that do not come on the picture
with examples. Generally, in an ideal, ready image without
attributes must look like a full black and white, without any
conflict paper and ink.
And a couple of tips.
If you plan on drawing from the fragments of higher
brightness, better to make a black background, as on all other
colors will be visible border familiarity with high brightness
and ordinary. And on the very image transitions to shade with
ink, so you cover up deficiencies sinklerovskoy graphics.
Better to start with large drawings. It's easier to paint and
write on familiarity, and the acquisition of skills will be
obtained almost everything.
Nevertheless, in almost every picture are its complexity,
but somehow the problems are solved. The truth is not always
drawing from these decisions wins, well, what to do :-(
So go ahead, Experiment, create.
Somewhere in the second half of June, an album of my
graphics under called "GALLERY". It can recommend as a good
supplement to this article. The collection includes about fifty
screens, painted in a period of up to FunTop'98 SS'999.
On symmetric finish and say goodbye to you.
File with a graphic example in the annex to the newspaper.
