Forest Background Painting Tutorial

Forest Background Painting Tutorial 

If you're ready, let's start !

STEP 1

 With your first layer, just make and solid background color with a solid ground color, then draw a bunch of straight lines over it for the tree trunks. After that easy step , start adding things like branches with smaller brushes. It helps to look at something.

STEP 2

 

 Next, since this a sunny forest , Just select the background (if you have GIMP) or with photo shop, just select the solid color layer. Now take a soft brush (fuzzy circle) and just shade it like you would anything else.

STEP 3

 

 Now this step looks hard, but it's not. With the background still selected , just get any of your favorite leaf brushes, or anything you think would look like a leaf if it was green. Now , just go crazy with it and put it ALL OVER THE PLACE !!!

STEP 4

 

Last step is much like the previous. Except you are putting them OVER the background. Put as many leaves as you think should be there-it doesn't really matter where you put them. They could be floating in mid-air and no one would notice! Put some sun beams in there if you want and then YOUR DONE !!!
