拆除機甲的制作

我開始的想法是做一個2.0版本的DESTROYER，一個我?guī)讉�月前創(chuàng)建的圖像。我的目標是重新設計整個機甲，以便給他更多的吸引力。

通常我喜歡立即開始使用顏色，所以我使用漸變工具設置漸變顏色背景。

I started with the idea to do a 2.0 version of THE DESTROYER, an image that I created a few months ago. My goal was to re-design the entire mech in order to give him more appeal.

Usually I love to start immediately with colors, so I set a gradient color background using the Gradient tool.

我選擇了一種綠色的色調(diào)，因為我想給這個世界末日的場景營造一種不健康的氛圍。

I chose a tone of green because I wanted to give an unhealthy atmosphere to this apocalyptic scene.

然后我開始用一個很簡單的草圖來描繪一些建筑的輪廓

Then I started with a very simple sketch of some building silhouettes

在整個過程中，我使用了三個標準的Photoshop畫筆

During the entire process I used three standard Photoshop brushes

柔軟的圓刷，柔和過渡，煙霧朦朧

硬圓刷

采樣刷子來實現(xiàn)紋理效果

Soft Round brush for soft transition, smoke and haze

Hard Round brush

Sampled Brush to achieve texture effects

然后，使用硬圓刷快速繪制草圖; 我開始機甲的形象。 我決定把作品的某些部分從作品中刪去，以強調(diào)他的比例。 在這個階段，我嘗試著定義機器的體積和形狀，并決定用一束激光武裝它，就像蜘蛛射出它的線。 這種激光將成為他的毀滅性武器

Then, with a quick sketch using the Hard Round brush; I started to introduce the figure of the mech. I decided on purpose to leave some parts of it out of the composition to emphasize his proportions. In this phase I tried to define the volumes and shapes of the mech, and I decided to arm it with a laser beam exactly as a spider shoots its thread. This laser will be his weapon of destruction

我在機甲上添加了更多的細節(jié)，并繼續(xù)使用刷子給它一個繪畫的感覺。

I added more details on the mech and continued using only brushes to give it a painterly feel.

然后我開始把注意力更多地放在激光束上，尤其是在機甲的堅硬表面反射光線的過程中。我還增加了一些LED燈的護甲。當這篇作文幾乎完成的時候，給人一種熾熱的感覺

Then I started to focus a little more on the laser beam, and especially on how the hard surfaces of the mech were reflecting lights. I also added some LED lights to the armor. I gave a sense of incandescence later on when the composition was almost complete

在這個階段，我開始覺得有必要讓機器人與另一個物體互動，所以在右下角，我決定把一個互補的主題放在場景中。 一種從機甲怪物逃跑的軍用卡車。

我勾勒出他的拖車正在經(jīng)歷高速扭轉(zhuǎn)和猛烈的轉(zhuǎn)彎，只是為了使其更具動感。

At this stage I started to feel the need to make the mech interact with another object, so in the lower-right corner I decided to put a complementary subject in the scene; a sort of military truck escaping from the mech monster.

I sketched the silhouette like his trailer was experiencing high speed torsion and violent swerves, just to make it more dynamic.

為了給激光束提供更多的能量，我使用了一張我在網(wǎng)絡上發(fā)現(xiàn)的爆炸圖片

To give more power to the laser beam I used a picture of an explosion I found on the web

我使用套索工具選擇了火的部分，并將其拖到我的繪畫上，然后在屏幕模式級別上進行轉(zhuǎn)換

I selected the fire area with the Lasso tool and dragged it on to my painting, then converted it on a Screen mode level

我復制并縮放圖層，將其移到建筑物上，來增加更多的火焰和破壞感

I duplicated and scaled the layer to move it on to the building in order to add more fire and a sense of destruction

該點火了!我創(chuàng)建了一個新的圖層，用油漆桶工具填充黑色，然后將其轉(zhuǎn)換成顏色減淡模式。我們的黑色層變得透明;在這一點上，我用一把刷子和一種黃色和橘色的暖色顏料在燈光上涂上顏色，使它們變得白熱而明亮。

Time to light the fire! I created a new layer that I filled in black using the Paint Bucket tool and then converted it to a Color Dodge mode. Our black layer became transparent; at this point I used a brush and a warm yellow and orange color to paint over the lights in order to make them incandescent and bright.

我還在天空中增加了導彈的蹤跡

 I also added trails of missiles in the sky

到了最后一步，我想花更多的時間在激光的爆炸上，以盡可能多的寫實，用我的畫筆畫出碎片和火花。我還增加了霧霾和煙霧，特別是在巨大的機甲后面，把它從背景中分離出來

Arriving at the final steps, I wanted to spend more time on the explosion caused by the laser, in order to add as much realism as I could by painting debris and sparks of fire using my brushes. I also added haze and smoke, especially behind the giant mech, to separate it more from the background

我喜歡使用燈光，所以我再次使用了顏色減淡圖層，我花了更多的時間用橙色和黃色的其他觸摸來照亮我的械甲，特別是暴露在爆炸燈光下的部分(圖17)。我添加了一點藍色來結(jié)束這個階段，并進行最后的調(diào)整。

I love to play with light, so using the Color Dodge layer again I spent more time illuminating my mech with other touches of orange and yellow to the armor, especially the parts most exposed to the explosive light (Fig.17). I added a touch of blue to end this phase and jumped to the final tuning.

我添加了最后的觸摸來設置場景的最終顏色。我給了這幅畫一個溫暖的色調(diào)和一點對比度，使用曲線調(diào)整圖層，——瞧，拆除機甲完成了!

I added final touches to set the ultimate colors of the scene. I gave the painting a warmer tone and a bit of contrast using a Curves Adjustment Layer and - voila - The DEMOLITION MECH was finished!
