15. Creating the Evolution (3): Adjustments
Overall adjustments
I make the following adjustments to the overall illustration.
・ Blurred the bats using the same method as for the birds in part 9
・ Changed the color of the horns as I had forgotten earlier
・ Changed the flowers on the horns to white as I thought the balance was better
・ Added more detail to the moon
・ Added another layer for the fire
・ Adjusted contrast of the hair and made it darker, as it was too bright and shiny
・ Colored the eyes of the demon motif at the waist
・ Added more detail to the skin I also darkened the lips and made the skin shinier on the thigh and chest to make her look a little sexier.
Color corrections
I’ll do my color corrections over a few layers stored in a layer folder.
I thought it looked a little blurry, so I’ll try to fix this. I save it as a jpeg file, then load the jpeg file back into Clip Studio Paint as an image.
I move the layer to the top of the layer palette.
On the imported layer, I use the [Filter] menu > [Sharp] > [Unsharp mask] to sharpen the image. It’s a little too sharp like this, so I reduce the opacity to 43%.
I create a new layer above this, then paint shadows in the dark areas and set the blending mode to [Overlay].
On another new layer, I paint some final color adjustments with a brush tool.
When the layer is set to [Normal] at 100% opacity, it looks like this.
Now I’ve finished making the evolved version.
