Description This is not a tutorial. I just wanted to save my snapshots of my picture for future reference because I loved the way it came out. I was surprised at the results and I could not believe I was capable of doing what I did.


Feel free to ask any questions concerning the picture and its steps.

i just experimented with the water. I started with the round brushes at an opacity of less than 50% and made a bunch of large dots. Then a soft round brush at an opacity of about 20% was used to color over the many large dots. Then smaller transparent dots were made and i used the smudge tool on them to make the curves and swirls. I used a smaller brush size to make criss crosses on the water's suface. All the while experimenting with the same colors i used in the sky.

Thanks! Though looking at my steps I think I should have made more snapshots. I recycled the pathway in the picture from my earlier version of this picture.

Yep, I don't own a tablet. You can even ask ~Catgirl-Aishiru ~Benevolin or ~chi-chi8839 . They can tell you how much I suck at using a tablet when I tried to use ~Benevolin 's tablet for the first and last time. I hope to get my own tablet soon. I work on my laptop and I use the smudge tool and different brush opacity settings a lot. I also use a brush I made from this tutorial to help with the clouds. [link]
