在这个快速的制作过程中，我会告诉你我是如何使用照片创建山景图的。我将尝试着重于一些特定于这种创作艺术品的技巧。
In this quick making of I will show you how I created the Mountain illustration using photo-bashing. I will try to focus on some tricks that are specific for this method of creating artworks.
一个简单的草图
我总是喜欢用一个简短的草图开始新的插图；这对获得主要形状和构图的总体思路是有用的。 在这一点上，不必担心角色设计和背景细节，这些可以在以后的过程中决定和更改。 这也是我选择调色板的地方。 我用了淡色的，几乎是单色的palatte。 无论您如何选择颜色，都可以自己做，也可以在照片上使用Photoshop的颜色选择器。 重要的是颜色匹配和描述插图的心情。
A simple sketch
I always like to start any new illustration with a quick sketch; this is useful to get a general idea of the main shapes and composition. There is no need to worry about character design and background details at this point, these can be decided and changed later in the process. This is also where I decide on my color palette; I have gone for a desaturated, almost monochromatic palatte. It doesn't matter how you pick your colors, you can do it yourself or use Photoshop's Color Picker on a photo. What is important is that the colors match and describe the mood of the illustration.
照片参考
一旦我有了我的初步素描，并且我对颜色方案很满意，我可以开始寻找参考图像。 对于这个个人项目，我要混合使用二战和中世纪骑士（特别是十字军）。 研究不必局限于主题; 你可以从任何地方找到灵感，所以在你的主题之外看是很好的。
Photo reference
Once I have my initial sketch down and I am happy with the color scheme I can begin to look for reference images. For this personal project I'm going for a mix of WWII and medieval knights (especially crusaders). Researching doesn't have to be restricted to the main theme; you can find inspiration from anywhere, so it is good to look outside of your subject.匹配颜色
在我们进入细节和背景之前，我想通过一个简单的例子来分享我如何处理照片。 通常不同的照片会有不同的光源，如果最后的插图是可信的，他们需要相互匹配。 我最初的颜色草图将有助于这一点。 要匹配任何带有背景的照片，我使用匹配颜色（图像>调整>匹配颜色）功能，然后用纹理画笔在对象/照片上绘制。 记住照片很有助于加快这个过程，但是仍然需要画很多东西。
Match color
Before we move on to the details and background, I want to share how I work with photos using a simple example. Often different photos will have different light sources and they need to match each other if the final illustration is going to be believable. My initial color sketch will help with that. To match any photo with a background I use the function Match Color (Image>Adjustments>Match Color) and then paint over the object/photo with a texture brush. It is important to remember that photos help to speed up the process but there is still a need to paint lots of things.
Photo-bashing
使用配色过程，确保所有的参考图像与主要的插图相配合; 将它们添加到角色和背景。 我在构图上挣扎，最终改变了一些东西。 我对山的设计也不满意，所以我也改变了。 不要忘记在阴影中隐藏不必要的细节。
Photo-bashing
Using the Match color process I make sure all the reference images tie in with the main illustration; adding them to the character and background. I struggled with the composition and ended up changing things around a little bit. I also wasn't happy with the design of the mountain, so I changed that too. Don't forget to hide unnecessary details in shadow.
最后的接触
对于最后阶段，我添加了一些额外的图层。 我用了一层灰色的噪音，给人一种电影般的感觉。 我也使用过滤器智能锐化和高斯模糊，这有助于突出或隐藏一些细节。 有时我喜欢添加色差（滤镜>扭曲>镜头校正）。 从第一眼看，这些图层并不重要，但它们改善了插图的整体外观。
Final touches
For the final stages I added some extra layers. I use a layer with gray noise that gives a cinematic look to the illustration. I also use the filters Smart Sharpen and Gaussian Blur which help to highlight or hide some of the details. Sometimes I like to add Chromatic Aberration (Filter>Distort>Lens Correction). At the first look, these layers are not important, but they improve general look of an illustration.
