Painting the Interdimensional Traveler

In Chapter 4, “Posing the Interdimensional Traveler,” we looked at how to infuse our character with personality and purpose by posing its body. Now, it’s time to enhance and finalize our conceptualization with with the use of Photoshop Painting tools. We will introduce color and texture, and further explore the concepts of light, shadow, depth of field, and other details to create a compelling final illustration. At the end of this chapter, you will have a finished Photoshop painting created using your ZBrush sculpture as the basis of the image (Figure 5-1).
