After
the cyan sketch is done, time to finalize the line. I use Vector Layer
that works with path and points, for minor tweaking. 浅蓝色底图完成之后,是时候描线了。我用的是线和点的矢量图层,容易作细节调整。
Notable process is the sword. The samurai sword is not a straight object, it has a curve, adding the complication of the angle making it somehow complex to adjust to hand position. At the end, I find it easier to draw out in straight and rotate it to where it should be. Benefit of digital media, easy manipulating. 比较显着的过程是画剑的时候。日本武士剑并不直,它有些许弯度,加上倾斜的角度把它和手的位置的调整变得比较复杂。最后,我觉得先用直式把剑画出来在旋转它应有的角度。这亦是电脑的好处,容易调整。

The good thing about deciding the big decision like pose and angle without detail: 1. Able to check the proportion without the distraction of details. 2. If you put in a lot of detail at the beginning and then decide to change it, it will take more work. 当你有个人偶打底,加入细节会变得更简单。先决定无细节如姿势和角度类似的大方向的好处: 1. 可以在没有华丽细节而分心的情况下检察比例。 2. 如果一开始放入太多细节,之后要更改姿势的话,会更加多工。
I lowered the opacity of the red composition line and then sketch it over with cyan color line using brush. As it is a second draft, as long as you understand what you draw, clarity might not be the most importance. At this point, put in face feature, clothing and accessories. 我减低红色底线的不透明度,之后在上面用浅蓝色的笔刷画上细节。由于只是次稿,只要你看得清楚,清晰度还不是很重要。在这阶段,脸、衣服和装备应该完成了。

I originally draw the sketch on paper, it seems like I was too lazy to scan it and use camera to take a photo of it. The result is... the lines are so blur to look at. So I decided to redo on top of that camera shoot. 我本来是画在纸上,好像是因为那时候懒骨作祟没有用扫描仪反而只用相机拍照。结果……线条实在是非常模糊。所以我打算在相片图层上重新画过。
Usually, I start off with the basic joints or skeleton frame of the character. I normally use red colour. Because I already had the camera shoot as general reference, although not clear enough for detail, but enough for general shape and pose. So I use simple geometry shapes to follow the pose and sketch up the shape. 一开始我会先画上基本结构或人物骨架。我通常使用红色系的颜色。因为已经有了相片图层作底,虽然细部不够清晰,但足够显现出基本的形状和姿势。我用简单的图形跟着参考描绘形状。
This stage is important to decide the view angle and pose. It doesn't take long as it is still very rough and short of details. 这阶段决定角度和姿势很重要。因为没有细节所以它并不费时。
