CG "音响舞動"

OK. It's done!! I made a kind of graphic-design-like background with some curve line flow and rainbow, to express the music feeling.

So, that's the first finished CG in my blog. Hope you like it!! Enjoy~

Then I do the color of the headset. It work quite good. Given it some metal-look. The whole painting process is down to detail. More detail will make the char more concreted.

And I found that the skin tone is a bit boring. So I added a new layer in multiple to create a shadow with other hue. I love to see it look like a real skin!!

And then the MP3 in her hand is done. The cable is done by pen tool in Photoshop. So the work is almost done~~

I'm not quite satisfied with the originally designed color. So I've changed most of them. And added more shadow among the skin, cloth, hair... I've also added a background to help define the overall tone better.

The hair shading have changed a few times. Finally I used a more realistic style for the hair to match the other parts better.

And then continue shading...

這是在photoship中把不同的部份分成不同的圖層layers (eg. 皮膚、頭髮、上衣...)，並填上基本的固有色，再定出最基本的光暗。之後便是漫長的上色作業了...

CG "音响舞動" Work Flow 01

這是吾製作中的作品，用painter打草稿(見下圖)，試驗了多少線條組合之後，決定採用這舞動少女的形象。

既然是舞動，最好當然有音樂吧！吾覺得headset跟這女孩正好配合，但是剛開始畫的headset實在太簡陋了，所以到了弄outline的時候便把這part重畫，感覺比較好了~ (左：完成了outline階段的圖)

順道一提，這是畫這一類型cg的重要技巧：就是在outline階段把所有要/想要修改的地方都改好，之後上色的時候便能夠免卻很多麻煩。

(什麼？"這一類型cg"是啥意思？就是這種先勾線outline，之後把不同部位分成不同圖層layers，再在不同的layers上色。請留意以後的blog，應該會有更多的描繪~)

A cg tutorial from CGSociety

I have not visited CGSociety for sometimes. So I’ve missed this artical and just saw it yesterday. Details as below,

CGSociety :: Tutorial
24 October 2007, by Marta Dahlig
Marta Dahlig takes us through the creation of the EXOTIQUE 3 cover image.
Marta Dahlig’s gorgeous ‘Umbrella Sky’ image was unanimously chosen for the cover of Ballistic Publishing’s EXOTIQUE 3, and after submitting, Marta continued to improve on perfection. Here, she takes us through her process of building on a dream.

Visit it!

It is a cg tutorial by Marta, who is really skillful with computer graphic. The painter shared the brushes used in Photoshop. Seems that no need to use so many brushes already can do a dramatic texture.

After reading it, I indeed want to make a blog to write something about CG, and also share some of my works. This is the birth of this blog!
