Description okay so I made a kinda foolproof tutorial on how I draw/color metals. This method can be used with any drawing program and with any brushes you like. The image is extremely large so you can see my brush settings


1. fill color
2. use blend brush for hilight #1
3. use blend brush again for hilight #2
4. use hard brush to add shine
5. use blend brush to color lineart. Basically what I did was made the the lineart where the light source lighter

also you can change the colors up to get other metals. Rose gold is my absolutely favorite ; u;
_____________________________________

anyways let me know what you all think! Hope this metal works for you! 
also here are other works this method has been used on

Hmmm... wel usually I do find texture tutorials a thing that needs to be done a little more in the style of this one, so maybe something like... how to make liquids look more like liquids, or wood textures... something like that maybe?

aureamachina In reply to Topaz-The-CrossCat73 [2017-06-04 03:50:39 +0000 UTC]

to be quite honest
she actually uses the same method
but its where to place your shadows, hilights, the shape of the method and I can see she adds different colors as well for an interesting effect
also everything is painted  
like your new scarfox super congrats btw

its a very simple process
what really makes it come together is the way you color the lineart
