- We now have a color composition…for our illustration…and I want to use this to create a rough drawing…for our illustration.…In order to do that,…I will select this little color composition.…I'm copying it,…ctrl + c, and I create a new file.…Since I have the color composition in my clipboard now,…the size here for the new file…already fits this little color composition…and what I want to do now is to…make it a little bit bigger…so that I can draw in it better.…
So under Image, Image Size,…I choose something like,…well, 1200 is a good dimension…for the height of the image file, I think.…I put this here in the background…so that it doesn't distract me…and you see that our color composition has…pretty low resolution…and the scaling has blur it…but that's completely okay.…I will now decrease the opacity of my color composition…to something like this…and I now create a new layer…on which I want to perform my drawing.…
I switch to the Brush Tool,…I pick my drawing brush…and let's perhaps do the outline…for the illustration first.…
