Making of Fire Energy
by Eugenio Garcia, Mexico

I start to put more light bounces, defining the shapes and the sketch of the main character. I use some low opacity brush for the far trees.






More defining and I use some tashas brushes for leaves and little trees.


I add some more leaves with tashas brushes and putting more detail on it.


I use the smudge tool for the fire to make it more fluid.


Some great things happen when you use the sharpen tool, brings more details to things like logs and leaves, and some of the character details.


I draw the little dots with a single touch with the round brush  (the backdrop is only for easy seeing).


Then I duplicate the layer and make some Gaussian blur in the down layer to add the bright effect.


The paint is now with the dots and I put some noise (like 3 %) to make it more warm and atmospheric feeling.


With the final image I play with the hue and saturation, bright and contrast. I used the sharpen tool to do some more final details.


Hope you have enjoyed this making and if required any info then feel free to contact me in artecnl@gmail.com and in msn artecnl@hotmail.com . Thanks for seeing.
