Question

@563blackghost — Not sure if you are on during the summer.. But since you're the only artist that I know; I have an art question.
How would I be able to blend/shade out a subject that matches with the backdrop? As you know, I haven't had much inspiration or motivation for art because of a certain issue I've become rusty.

Answer 1

Wait - @AP. You know art too.. If you have any helpful tips, it would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Answer 4

Answer 5

What in particular do you need to be removed and matched with the background? It can be easily done with clone stamp tool on photoshop

Answer 6

The image is something I was trying to draw on paper and such. I was using drawing pencils and I just noticed that it would be a bit difficult since the background and his apparel matches with the backdrop.

Answer 10

Okay, so you can try one of two things -
(1) Customize the backdrop to be a shade darker than his attire (or vice versa)
Or (2) Purchase a set of graphite sticks which usually come in varying shades of grey/black and some compressed neutral-colored color sticks.
Good luck and have fun (:
