Hello my friends and welcome to another Tuesday of tutorial!
I am Leonardo Pereznieto and today we will draw a shark, on an iPad
using Procreate,
and I want to thank Apealz, our sponsor for this video.
I selected a soft and small airbrush,
to begin with...
and a dark brown.
With these we sketch the surface line
of the sea,
with the waves.
It can be very simple,
something like that.
Alright!
Now let's make another line which can be with different shapes,
so we have the top plane, of the surface of the sea.
And I lift it a little bit higher
to leave more space below.
Like so...
Now the shape of the shark,
which of course is very aerodinamic.
Here goes the mouth
and the eye and the top fin,
and the gills here.
I make a dividing line, because they have white on the lower part,
while they are gray on the upper area.
Let´s draw the tail a little bigger.
Let's create a new layer, and select a blue for the sky.
Then we make a line on this layer to separate the sky from the sea,
so we can drop the color on it.
We create a new layer and choose a darker blue for the Ocean
and also here we draw a dividing line, which I made more jagged
for the ondulation of the waves and drop the blue.
The layer with our shark should be above that, otherwise we don't see it.
With a wider airbrush let's go darker
on the lower part.
With a much lighter blue, let's make some light beams
but much softer, like this.
And we make several of those.
Now, with a gray and a medium airbrush,
we begin painting the shark.
That would be for the upper half and the tail.
Let's give a tone to the fin.
And to the rest of the upper half of the shark,
as the surfaces turn away from the Sun, they darken.
Let's switch color for a much lighter
for the lower part.
This is interesting, in regards to how we shade it
because the lower part is more in shade and therefore should be darker,
but the shark has a change of color,
the bottom part is white
and therefore it should be a lot lighter.
It is of a lighter value but in shade,
the result is that it still looks lighter than the upper part,
which catches the light but is of a darker gray.
Let's paint the undearneath of this fin
and I deactivate the sketch lines.
Good! now we can refine the shapes.
Ok, good! now on a new layer
and with a very light gray, let's paint the refflections!
These are called caustic lights
and are those wiggly lines we sometimes see underwater.
We will add these, of course, on all the surfaces that are facing up
and therefore that are being illuminated by the Sun.
When two or more of these lines cross,
an even brighter spot is created.
This is really fun!
I have some good news for you from our friends of Apealz
let me tell you about it briefly, while we continue drawing.
Because you requested it, and also because of the success of their first art contest,
they will soon hold a second such competition, this time also with cash prizes for the winners.
The theme or subject of this competition will be "Our Beautiful Earth."
I am mentioning this to you now,
so that you have time to get inspired
and to create your works of art.
Apealz as you know makes beautiful fabric skins and stickers that can be removed and reused.
This is a great way to promote your art or your brand!
At their website apealz.com you can design your own stickers or choose them from their extensive image gallery.
By the way, they are about to implement international shipping too,
so stay tuned for this
and for more updates on the contest.
Ok! very good!
Let's erease this start line on top,
and then make some bubbles underwater.
You know, I think the fin on top needs to come forward
so we select it
and move it.
and I will also tilt it
slightly, clockwise.
Good!
Let's just repair the wound
[laughter].
You know what, some of the refflectios were on another layer, so let's move them also.
If you made it, all the way to this point
I would love to know it!
Please in the comments write me the secret code:
"A ferocious shark".
And we may adjust the opacity of the sea and the sky.
And it's ready!
