Making of Fire Energy by Eugenio Garcia, Mexico

火之能量元素的绘制

Introduction: I receive some mails to do this make up, the idea of this work is the concept of Energy, this is originally for a graphic design site, I am a designer, but I like a lot digital painting. I have this idea in my mind, to translate the fire energy to an image, and this came out, I didn’t do any sketch, for that I consider this a speed painting; (it took less than 2 hours to do).

简介：我收到一些邮件，要求我说明一下这幅画的制作流程，这个作品的主题是对于能量的描绘，这原来是给一个图形设计网站准备的，我是一个设计师，但我非常喜欢数码绘画，我在脑子里有个想法，把火的能量用画面表现出来，因此有了这幅作品，我没做任何的草图，因此我把它看作是一幅快速涂鸦，（这花费了2小时不到的时间）。

Tools: I used photoshop 7 and a wacom graphire 4 tablet, (the small one), my hardware specs are AMD Athlon 1800 512mb ram, and 17in. monitor

工具：我使用photoshop 7和wacom graphire 4绘图板（小的那种），我的机器配置是：AMD Athlon 1800 512mb 内存, 和 17寸显示器

Preparation: With the concept and idea in my mind I did small canvas size at 1264 x 550 pixels, since the image is for the web.

准备工作：脑子里有了想法之后，我新建了一个1264 x 550像素的画板，因为图画是为网站准备的（所以不需要太大）。

Beginning

开始

The first I do is to put a background color, the base color.

首先我放置了一个背景颜色，作为基础颜色

Then I chose my color palette and try to put only warm colors, with nice contrast.

然后我选择我的色块面板，试着只选择有着良好对比的暖色调。

I choose Dodge, sharpen and brush as my tools. I have some great brushes from Natascha Roeoesli (http://tascha.ch) and I used three of it in this image, but my base brush is the round brush, one with opacity controlled by pen and the another is 100% in opacity.

我选择加暗工具，锐化工具以及笔刷，我从Natascha Roeoesli (http://tascha.ch)那里得到了一些非常棒的比刷，并从中选择了三个来画这幅画，不过我的基础比刷还是圆形的，一个可以用过Wancom 笔来调节透明度，以及另一个是100%不透明的。

with some orange color and the dodge tool I put my light source

通过使用dodge（变暗）工具和一些橙色来定义我的光源位置

With my round brush I put the dark shapes and the main idea.

然后使用圆型笔刷来定义暗部的形状和主要的构图。

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.

我开始增加一些灯光的反射，定义形状，并绘制主要角色，对远景的树，我使用了一些低透明度的笔刷。

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

然后我使用胡须状的笔刷来添加更多了树叶和小的树木。

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

我继续使用该笔刷添加更多的细节，并增加更多的树叶。

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

我使用smudge（涂抹）工具来扭曲火焰，使它看起来更像流体。

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.

当你使用sharpen（锐化）工具时，能产生很奇妙的效果，给画面里的树木带来更多的细节，也能为角色添加细节。

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

我使用圆形笔刷，通过单击来画出一些小圆点，（黑色背景只是为了让你看起来清楚）。

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

然后我复制了圆点层，给它添加Gaussian blur（高斯模糊）特效，来模拟光晕的效果。

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

现在画面里已经有了光点，我添加了一些noise（燥点）效果（数值设置为3%%左右），使它更加暖色调，并且更有环境的感觉。

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.

对于最终的图像，我调节了色相和饱和度。亮度和对比度，使用锐化工具来添加一些最终的细节。
