TUTORIAL<br />
Tip: Keep your eye on<br />
the bone structure. Use<br />
09<br />
soft brush for dodge/<br />
burn to sculpt the shape.<br />
Ram (part II)<br />
Go back to the ram and continue to work on the fur by using<br />
the dodge and burn fur brush. This will help to add depth to<br />
it. I don’t use option Protect Tones because the resulting<br />
colour looks nasty in my opinion.<br />
TIP: After all the final touches, Stamp visible layers<br />
by pressing alt + ctrl + shift + E and change the mode<br />
from Normal to Linear Light. Then reduce the opacity<br />
from 100% to a small number. This will provide your<br />
illustration greater depth and contrast.<br />

Shadows and sharpness<br />
At this stage, you’re about ready to finalise your masterpiece.<br />
You need to add shadows to every object to give it depth<br />
and make the whole illustration more realistic. Use a pan tool<br />
to create a shadow under the head. Use Multiply mode for<br />
the layer and reduce the Opacity from 100% to 40%. Then<br />
apply a mask to it and use Gradient Fill Tool to reduce the<br />
intensity of shadow as it goes away.<br />
Create a new layer with Multiply Mode. Bring the layer<br />
to the top and use soft brush and erase tool to draw other<br />
shadow parts. After all the final touches, you might like to<br />
add sharp your illustration. Stamp visible layers by pressing<br />
Alt + Ctrl + Shift + E. Go to Filter > Other > High Pass and<br />
apply it to the layer. Then change the mode from Normal to<br />
Linear Light. If it is too much, you can reduce Opacity of the<br />
layer. In my opinion this operation helps to bring every<br />
element of your composition together.<br />
