Alright guys, welcome back. First thing I want to mention is since the last since I recorded the last video, I did allow Creative Cloud to upgrade Photoshop. So don't be thrown by the slightly different appearance of Photoshop. Everything's still the same. So let's just jump right back into it. So, so we're basically going to start similarly to what we did last time.

And I'm going to just go down to my highlight layer one underneath the fix the fix group. I have a soft brush and I'm just going to brush in some underlying highlights on the monster guy. actually going to just go ahead and select all the parts of them so I don't accidentally brush anything on the other figure. There, that was all selected. Alright. Hey notice since this parts going to be in shadow, I'm not putting any underlying highlights and this lady's going back so I'm not going to touch that one either.

And for the torso I'm, you know, I'm probably just going to do the chest and shoulders here. Actually, a moment I am going to D select his head grab that one. Later All right. We'll put some highlights then chest. highlights on the shoulder, shoulder. Obama forearm.

Actually, I'm gonna come back to that. That arm forearm gauntlet in the hand. Go. Now come back over here and D select the rest of the torso Highlight down the forearm and the gauntlet. Where's my flats oops. are connected.

There now I just have to hand them a black. And then I'm just going to put some highlights on the digits because I figured the lights going to be hitting the fingers more than the palm. So I'm going to play more highlights. There we go and kinda want to strengthen the highlights on the shot on the shoulder. Here's a little bit dark so there that works better. Yeah, that's good.

Now put some light to some light highlights on the cheeks, nose, chin area. A little bit at the tops of the years. Write down this kind of crown thing. few highlights here. Hair is going to do one across here. It's going to be kind of the shape of the main palette.

We're going to do so that and then top the mustache. Alright, that's the first layer. Let's go to highlight layer two and start putting in some actual cuts back downstream with the foot. And now since this monsters skin is gonna be more matte than the shiny armor my pen is gone. We're making the shapes, they look a little less reflective, a bit more representative to the actual shapes that are drawn. I'm just carving out what I think will be interesting looking shapes for the highlights.

And the negative space left between the inked shadows that Kevin inked in Right now just connect the brush over those highlights on there. Yeah, it's pretty good. All right. I'm gonna put a light highlight down here in the groin area. Not too strong one, just a slight one, I think. there and then another highlight on the upper leg, on the pants.

Space there. All right. make it stronger towards the top like that. Now I'm just going to create a shape to help define the knee here a bit. Again, this is very stylized drawing style Kevin's using here. So the colors can, can and should be stylized as well.

Yeah. Now for the golden bits here like the belts and gauntlets and crown. These are, as you can tell by the way they're drawn. Suppose To be reflective. So, we're going to kind of go back to the same technique we were using on the other character and try to establish some reflections. Following the reflections that Kevin has already kind of laid out in the line art.

Light, they're gonna go a little bit heavier against that as a good start. Now for the torso, a few highlights on the top of each app. And then you've larger highlights here. My clavicle and the chest. Alright, let's see. Select the part that overlapped the beard and whatnot.

Zoom out a little bit and now get larger brush. I'm just going to gently brush the highlight. So again, it's brighter as it goes up to the chest. Looks pretty good. That was pretty in depth. The ABS aren't, you know a bit darker, so you can tell that the torso is coming towards you.

Do select these brushing the shoulder now can leave it pretty bright. Since this is closest towards us and the closest towards the light source that shoulder can put a slight sliver Have a highlight on this bit of the neck that showing there you go on some highlights, bit trying to create the illusion for reflection here. Small one in here. few highlights in this area the floor arm here. Looks good. Alright, we'll get the hand taken care of.

Again just trying to map out the areas that the digits that would be hitting our that would most likely be hitting the light keeping the palm that dark Yeah, actually I don't quite like the shape. I'm going to go back in the history. I'm going to add a little bit more shape here. Now let's go brush that back and again. So all that's left is this arm over here. crate nice.

Just gonna do a highlight in the center of this to help maintain the illusion of the shape and the reflections go actually Looking at this I'm going to select this little area go back to how layer one and take that highlight out so now it's more of a shadow. It looks better. Chris shadow to help the Find the shape of the hand. There we go all these muscles here Alright, brush this in. And I'll tell you when I'm brushing arms, or I'm creating that question in the highlights for the arms. Even though it's a, you know, a lumpy mass of muscles, it's still basically when you break it down just a cylinder.

So as I kind of brush the highlight towards the center, like my forearm here, and so it's a little darker towards the edges, kind of creating the illusion that it's a cylinder and it's, you know, a rounded object. Let's go and put into more highlights in The Crown go ahead and grab the top. Give it a look. Give it looks like it has like a little top left. To it make it seem more like a three dimensional object. And again thinking cylindrical Lee I'm putting the stronger highlights towards the center of the object as pretty good.

I'm gonna go through and select this little bottom ledge here and take out that highlight kind of helps give it some dimension to the year pick it out somehow lights here and just trying to think where the light coming from above would hit each of these structures in the earlobe. Don't like a bass coming into the year so let's get rid of that. There we go. This year's a little simpler to highlight on the edge. Yeah. few highlights in the face here on the lip.

Chin fill it in towards the center Hello knows Richard the on carve out a little bit the Available area left here shows that's when the light is hitting this go suck the eyes. I want to go over to the actual color part of this layer like this very light orange, almost white, as pinkish orange, fill it. Go back to the mask on the line art and actually I'm going to take away a little bit shape. There'll be a shadow coming from the top ridge of his eye. And then there's going to fill that. Yeah, looks good.

Carpet a few highlights in the hair. This one's gonna be mostly in shadow but I'll put few light highlights. even lighter than lighter. There we go. Pick up some highlights on the top here. More on this side.

Again, try my highlights make it look a little bit whiskery. Kind of following along with Bill Wiener once again Pick out a few highlights here. Rush right there you go. No, I didn't go to the extreme edges just in the center of the area bad away there. And I'm just going to create a quick highlight here. There.

All right now we've got the secondary highlights in so I can pretty good. think we'll save there and then take a break. meet you back here in a few
