EDIT: Change all of the 10-15% to 15-20%. 10-15% is too light

When you use the curve tool.Β  Right click the little nubs, this will make the curve like a path tool

Hi, I'm just confused about what you said about shading it in the parts of blue or something. What do you sue to shade?

Vetrina-271 In reply to Apple-Jack1000 [2013-02-24 22:05:59 +0000 UTC]

Use a darker color than the base color c:

This tutorial helped me a lot but I found myself running into the issue of it not blending well with the actual image if you do it on the same layer. moral of the story. Make a new layer for shading and lighting. Thank you very much though. It helped me a lot.

um... how does the outline not get blurred?

Vetrina-271 In reply to OddAlpaca [2012-08-18 07:31:01 +0000 UTC]

The shading is on a different layer than the outline.

squirrellover [2012-04-08 01:21:56 +0000 UTC]

I have questions: wat do u mean highlight it was those colors? do u just color those areas in a different lary and then blue it or wat? that confused me... and I have a hard time finding out were to shade becuz either I shade to much or to little

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Vetrina-271 In reply to squirrellover [2012-05-27 23:13:32 +0000 UTC]

The blue lines indicate where I shaded in my picture.

First, get the picture you want to shade.
Next, shade the area you want to shade with a darker or lighter color than the area you want to shade.
Then go to Effects>Blurs>Gaussian Blur and blur your shade.

That's basically how you do it lol.
