854 A hand becomes a Thanksgiving hand turkey
- Hey, gang, this is Deke McClelland. Welcome to Deke's Techniques. Today, a regular old hand becomes a Thanksgiving hand turkey. First, the thumb gets a beak, then the thumbnail becomes an eye. And then you add the wattle, and finally, some coloring. Hands, these are our hands. Turkeys, they want to inhabit our hands. Let them. So painless, so wonderful, so Thanksgiving. Here is how to let them. All right, so here's the final version of what might pass for the colorful hand turkey, just so you have a chance to see it on screen. And here's where we're going to start. And by the way, I'm providing both of these documents as layered PSD files just in case you want to follow along with me inside Photoshop. However, I'm going to be working inside Adobe Photoshop Sketch, running on an iPad Pro. And so the first thing I'm going to do is tap on the background at the bottom of the layers. And I will once again say that I have my layers on the left and my brushes on the right, and that's because I'm left-handed. But that's opposite of the way they are by default. All right, now I want to pain on a new layer. So I'll tap on the little plus icon at the top of the layers column, And I'll select Sketch Layer, because I want to be able to paint on it. And I'll go ahead and select the graphite pencil, which is, by default, the top brush, as we can see right here. And so notice, if I tap on the settings icon, you can see that this is, indeed, the graphite pencil. You can reset the brush if you want to get the same results as me. And then I'll just go ahead and dismiss that panel. And I've set the color to black. The flow is set, as by default, to 66, incidentally. And I've cranked the size down to 12. All right, now I'm going to do a two-finger pinch in order to zoom in and rotate my artwork. And now I'll just go ahead and paint a kind of beak right here, like so. And I want the beak to be smiling, because after all, our turkey is overjoyed to sacrifice himself for the holidays. I'll just go ahead and give him a little bit of a nostril right there. And now I'll pain in an eyelid, like so. And I'll go ahead and add a pupil with a cartoon reflection. And then I'll go ahead and paint in the under-lid. That is the lower eyelid. And I'll go ahead and add a little bit of baggy flesh as well. And now I'll do a small out-pinch just to make sure that pupil appears as if it's looking at us, which it actually doesn't. And so I'm going to switch to the eraser, which is this checkerboard pattern at the bottom of the brush list. And I'll just go ahead and erase away that pupil, like so. And then I'll switch back to the graphite pencil at the top of the list. And I'll move the pupil over and up just a little bit, so over to the right, so that it appears as if it's tracking us, like Mona Lisa. All right, I'll go ahead and zoom out a little. Now I want to paint its wattle, that fleshy stuff that's hanging down from it. So I'll tap on the plus icon at the top of the layers column once again. And I'll select Sketch Layer. And then I'll go ahead and tap on my graphite pencil, in my case, on the right side of the screen. And I'll tap on the color, and I'll set it to a kind of pink, as we're seeing right here. And of course, you can use any colors you like. And now I'll go ahead and tap off that panel to dismiss it, and I'll go ahead and paint in a kind of snood on top of the beak. So I'll select that beak layer by tapping on this icon. And I'll switch back to the transparency pattern, which represents the eraser, and I'll erase the top of the beak, like so. Now I'll switch back to the graphite pencil. And I'll tap on that wattle layer. And if you want to name a layer, then just tap on its thumbnail to bring up this panel. Tap on the words Sketch Layer, and then go ahead and call this guy Wattle. That is W-A-T-T-L-E, not waddle, by the way. And then tap the Done button. All right, I'll go ahead and tap off the panel to hide it. And I want to straighten this guy by two-finger dragging once again so I can tell what direction gravity is. And so I'll just go ahead and paint some droopy wattle, like so. And I also want it to kind of jiggle continuously down his neck right here, like so. And then you might want to paint in some extra goopy edges so that the flesh looks like it's all wrinkly. And then we need to have some dots. And by the way, if you want to create dots, like this, using the graphite pencil, then you need to go ahead and kind of scrub. You can't just tap, necessarily, because you're going to get very light dots, indeed, that way. And if, for some reason, you're not seeing a dot at all, then just go ahead and try again. All right, now we need to paint in some color. And so I'm going to tap on the background item at the bottom of the layers column and add yet another new layer by tapping on the plus sign and selecting Sketch Layer. And then I'll click on the graphite pencil to bring up its settings. I'll click on the color. And I'm going to go with more of a shade of violet, sort of a low-saturation violet, by the way, or a lilac, if you prefer. It's just a little bluer than what we had before. And now I'm going to tap on the flow option right there, and I'm going to drag down to take it down to, let's say, something in the neighborhood of 30. And then I'll tap on the size option and take it up to 40 so that we're painting bigger, more translucent brush strokes. And I'll just go ahead and paint into the wattle, as we're seeing right here. And I'll go ahead and paint into the snood up here at the top. And I'll paint down the length of the thumb inside the wattle once again. All right, now what I want to do is paint some color into the turkey's face. And so I'll go ahead and two-finger drag it just to change its angle and zoom. And then I'll tap on the color once again. And I'll change it to a kind of shade of cyan, as we're seeing right here. And then I'll just go ahead and paint lightly inside of the turkey's head. And I'll go ahead and paint around the eye, because after all, I want the actual white of the eye to remain white. And I'm scrubbing a little harder at this point so that I'm getting some darker brushstrokes right here. And notice, because we're continuing with the graphite pencil, we're getting this kind of chalky, or if you prefer, crayon interaction between the various brushstrokes, even between the colorful ones and the black ones. All right, so I'll paint up into the back of the neck, like so, and down into the knuckle of the thumb. So I guess I'm kind of mixing my metaphors here. We've got a turkey and a hand at the same time, hence hand turkey, by the way. In case you were wondering about that word origin. All right, now I'll paint into the turkey wrist right here, as we're seeing. And I want it to be very blue. And then I just kind of want the blue to sort of dissipate, that is fade away, as we venture away from the knuckle, and as we venture up from the wrist as well. All right, now I'll paint up the back of the hand and all the way to the pinky, so right where the pinky begins right there, and then have this sort of fade away as well, like so. And then make it a little darker down here at the bottom of the wrist. All right, now I want to add a little bit of colorful shading. And so I'll tap on that color circle again. And I'll change the color, this time around, to a kind of purple, a little more saturated than we had before. And now I'll paint under the eye, like so, and kind of down into that top knuckle of the thumb and over the top eyelid, and maybe down just a little more so it looks like we have a little bit of shading below the eye. And now I'll paint along the back of the thumb, like so. And if you let off the pressure, then you're going to end up with a more translucent brushstroke. I'll go ahead and paint down here, as you're seeing me do, so into the region where the thumb joins up with the hand, and down here under the lower knuckle, like so, and up the front of the neck just a little bit, and then down into the kind of palm of the hand, or the fleshy front of the turkey, and then down into the wrist once again. I want this interaction of this kind of blue flesh along with the purple stuff, and then over into the right side of the hand, this right palm area right there. And again, I'm going to try to fade the color away from that edge. All right, then I want to paint over here just a little bit. And this is looking pretty good, At which point, I'll go ahead and do a tiny two-finger pinch in order to center my zoom. And I'll tap the double-arrow icon in the top right corner in order to hide the interface. And that is at least the beginning of how you create a new and improved hand turkey inside Adobe Photoshop Sketch, running on an iPad Pro along with an Apple Pencil. If you're a member of LinkedIn Learning, I follow-up movie in which we go super nuts painting and coloring our hand turkey's tail feathers. Meanwhile, two days from now, Thanksgiving. Are you ready for it? The family members, the mashed potatoes, the passing of the plates, the feasting and the feasting and the feasting. Deke's Techniques, each and every week. Keep feasting.
