怎麼畫水——海浪畫場景

Hey, welcome back, in today's video, as you can see, we're gonna paint a seascape and a dolphin. So let's start here with the underpainting. Dolphin first, then the water, you can see, very thick. Then we mix the next layer, and after letting the first layer dry completely, it took quite a while, we start to apply the second layer here now. And as you can see, we build up the waves from the background, coming to the foreground. Very small details, very small waves in general. So that we have this perspective put in. And then we start to build up the waves more in the foreground. And for this, we apply this greenish color here. Basically parts where the light goes through. And then we more or less paint around these parts here, where we have this greenish color put on. I mean, it looks a bit weird now, but it will all come together now, a bit later, as you can see. Basically this greenish color is the part of the water where the wave is the thinnest, and where the light goes through, more or less. And it's easier this way, that you put in these greenish colors first, and then you basically build up the waves themselves, as you can see here. And you also see that I'm more or less using different colors, a different amount of color on my brush, with this dry brush technique here. A thinner layer means that we have a darker bluish color, and a thicker layer means we have a bit more lighter color. And here now we build up the center wave, more or less. Same technique with this dry brush. And we basically have the part where the light goes through, and on the other side we have the light reflecting from the sun, more or less. And therefore the wave on the side of the sun is the brightest part of this wave here. And you see I try to get in those soft edges, a lot of places. And you get lots of color variations, darker colors, lighter colors, applied very thin, applied medium thick. And it's really just a hint of color on the brush, that basically builds up the waves here. When I establish the bigger parts, the grand schedule more or less, I start to apply those finer details, those smaller parts of the waves. This is a very quick way of building up waves, and a very easy way on top. And here now I'm adding basically the lightest colors, lightest areas. And make sure that you don't put those lightest colors on everywhere. You need just some little highlights. And this here now is basically a pure titanium white, that's basically the top reflections that we have on the water. And these are very very important I think. Those sparkles, those I call them little diamonds or whatever, they are really very important for this thing to really look realistic. And I mix the color for the white water part. I mean it appears to be white, but it's a greyish bluish color as you can see. A lighter one, a darker one. And I basically follow the shape of the water, from left to right, left bottom to right, left top to right bottom. And basically build up those white water details. And it's important that you have those contrasts from the parts where the white water is very thick. Here for example. And some other parts where you use a smaller brush, and where you have some parts basically fading into the sea itself. And you also need lots of details. You can see on this part here. And you also should always apply the color the way the water should appear. Like this here for example. The water is rising to the right side. And I do this by letting the white water basically bend it a little bit more or less. So that it appears to have volume. And here I apply those shadows. We need the thicker parts of the white water. A very essential part I think. And don't do it everywhere. Just in some spots. And be careful not to overdo it. It's just a tiny hint of this color here. And we also need of course to put in those reflections from the sky. Those lighter bluish colors. Basically on the right side of the wave. And again I put in some, at the end more or less, some very fine pure titanium white reflections. And here now we have also the brighter part. More greenish looking. Acid greenish more or less. And of course on the dolphin we have lots of white water splashing around. And some more detailed parts of the white water. And here now I start to build up those waves. The breaker of the white water here. At the moment it looks completely off, completely wrong. But you will see later on that when you apply those details. Those parts of the water where it's flying around. It's a bit of a darker bluish color. Of course here I'm adding some lighter colors. Again nearly pure titanium white. For all those splashes that we have. And you also need some blue colors here. Bluish purplish colors. And when you do this you build up volume to this whole thing. And you also need of course those pure titanium white spots. Where basically the sun sparkles off from some parts of the water. This again is a very easy way of building up details. And basically building up details that don't exist more or less. You just hint them. Connecting the darker greenish water to the splashing water. Again you have to put in details. Smaller ones, lighter ones. And then we finally come to the main part. Dolphin. And this dolphin basically is just... How can I put it? You have the light coming in from the right side. And the light bouncing off from the left. And you need to apply the color. I mean of course according to your reference material. But also in a logic way that you repeat the colors that you have. Surrounding the dolphin. Like here for example the greenish color. Needs to be on the body of the dolphin. I mean dolphin is slick and very... In a way a bit reflective. And therefore you need to repeat the colors that you have. On the left side of the dolphin. On the dolphin itself. And the same goes for the reflections on the right side here. Basically just repeat the bluish color from the sky. That you also apply to the waves as you can see. So it's a fine balance of these colors that we put in and readjust. And you know putting in the details from the front part. And this was a bit tricky. Because you have to really make very fine adjustments to the whole thing. And especially the eye and the nose and the reflections. The fine line of the mouth and so on. And all those fine reflections that we have. Then it really starts to look realistic. And then I mix another color for the splashes. And you see this appears to be very bright. Not on the dolphin but on the palette you see it's a very bluish color. On the shadowy parts. But we also need to have some lighter colors here. That basically splash around this animal. And not just splashes but also some parts that are a bit longer. And a bit floating on his body in a thinner way. And so you'll end up having a nice looking dolphin painting. That's it for today. But I got here some more videos about this topic that you also might like to check out. Perhaps.
