Born in 1962 and raised in East Berlin, I acquired all my
artistic knowledge and skills through self-study since I
refused to study arts because I opposed the ruling
regime. Today, I’m a freelance illustrator and graphic
designer. Since 2004, I’ve delved into the digital arts,
especially renderings.

15 Paint the glove
Now create a new layer for drawing
the glove. First of all, choose a basic
colour for the foreground of the
glove. The Opacity of the glove layer
should be made approximately 75%
to let the edges of the hand shine
through – that way you avoid
drawing over the edges. It’s
convenient to make the Background
layer invisible during this step. With
lighter and darker tones and the
airbrush, you can add depth and
light afterwards o.

17 Merge layers and
adjust colour
To be able to work any further on
the image, you have to merge all
the layers together now. It’s
advisable to make a copy
beforehand to save any previous
work for a possible re-edit. To
merge the layers, go to: Layer>
Merge Visible and keep on
working with the one layer. Next
decrease the yellow tones of the
picture by 40% (Image>
Adjustments>Hue/
Saturation>Edit>Yellows) q.
14 Edit the shoulders
Since DAZ Victoria 4’s armpits are set too high, they
have to be edited to increase realism. For this, use the
following tools: Healing Brush (Diameter around 100)
and airbrush (Diameter around 300). First of all create
a new layer. With the Healing Brush, hit Opt/Alt and a
relevant part of the skin, then draw over the parts that
need correction. With the airbrush, you can level the
differences in the colour n.

16 Re-editing
the eyes
Before the next step, change
the background colour once
again. Now create a new layer
to give the eyelashes more
density. The colour should be
nearly black and the Diameter
of the hard brush 1-2px. Also
add shadow and light effects
to the eyes and lips on the
basic portrait layer using the
Dodge and Burn tools p.
