We used Photoshop to complete this drawing that was originally drawn in Illustrator.
On a quiet night, watching the full moon rise over the calm sea, you must feel particularly peaceful and peaceful...
Drawing process:
First, create a new file in Photoshop with a size of 210X297mm and a resolution of 150dpi, add black to the background, and create a layer. On the lower half of this layer, add the color R9 G47 B67.
Create a new layer, draw a circle on the top, add R251G251B232, copy it, add Gaussian blur to the layer below, with a value of 40; also add blur to the layer above, with a value of 2.
The moon should have the feeling of clouds. Bring up the selection of the copy and create a new layer. We can paint a color darker than the moonlight.
Next we make the stars in the sky. Create a new layer, use the pencil tool to adjust it to an appropriate size, draw highlights on it, copy the star layer, blur it, create a halo of the star, and invert the layer. Create a new layer to determine the distance and distance of the stars. Use the pencil tool again and repeat the above two steps. The difference is that you blur the layer where you just drew the stars and reduce the transparency of the layer above. Repeat the above steps again. The closer to the moon, the lighter it should be, and the lower part should be smaller, so we need to add blur - Gaussian blur, as shown in the picture.
The sky is now complete. Below is the water surface. Create a new layer, make a rectangular selection, select a part, and add the same color value as the sky.
The moon should have the feeling of clouds, bring up the selection of the copy, and create a new layer. We can add a color darker than the moonlight, and give it a Gaussian blur or reduce the transparency appropriately.
Select the channel panel, add the largest noise, select Lattice in Pixelate in the filter, the value is 8, add motion blur, the angle is 0, the value is 70; ctrl+L Manual Levels, enter the color level is 100, 0.28, 240.
Bring up the selection channel selection, CTRL + right-click to bring up the selection, return to the layer, create a new layer, and add white. Free transformation, zoom out, right-click the mouse and select perspective, adjust the size, reduce the upper part and make the lower part larger, and zoom in proportionally, reduce the transparency to 80%, add a mask to this layer, select the brush tool, add black on top, and change the water the top of.
Create a new layer, name it "Water Moonlight", select yellow, draw a few strokes under the moon, change the mode to Overlay, give Gaussian blur, and set the layer's transparency to 68%
Create a new layer, use the pen tool, draw a range, turn it into a selection, set the feather value to 2, and add white
Move the selection down, feather it in the selection, set the feather value to 40, add color R122 G117 B135, and deepen the edges.
Do the same for the snow at the back, inverting the layers. Use the blur tool or filter to blur the area where the water and the sky meet. The final effect is as follows.
