Autodesk Sketchbook Pro car sketching tutorial HD

Hey guys! Welcome to my first sketching tutorial. Here I'm gonna show you how to make a quick key sketch in Autodesk Sketchbook Pro.
First we'll begin by roughing the outline of the car. This has to be done quickly as it adds to the sketchy feel. I mirror the canvas to check whether the perspective is all right. Its good to get the line drawing done right first time as it saves a lot of time! Nnow I choose the lines I like most be darkening them. This helps to take the eye
away from the uneven lines we used to rough the car.Check the perspective one last time and then save. Now we're gonna get into the thick of things.I make a new layer and take a large airbrush using the same colour that I used to sketch the car out.I use the airbrush on the side and on the far corner of the top surface. This may not seem physically accurate, but thats not the point
of a sketch in the first place! I go over until I am satisfied with the gradation.Now we have to block in the darkest areas of the car, namely the grill, headlights,intakes and shadows, on a new layer of course. I reduced the opacity for clarity's sake.Also I want to add effects later which means I need to be able to see the pencil lines beneath. A really quick way to lay on dark areas is to use a
big brush and go over the area roughly, then erase the excess colour. I should have done this earlier, but I decided to do it now. Use the ellipse guides to get your wheels right. They are important! Wheels are the major reference point of your design! Once the wheels are blocked, I use the eraser to roughly define the wheels. Here I just indicate them without any detail, but thats just a preference.
Almost there! Now we define the highlights. I want to create some surfacing in the front so I use a white eraser, or a pencil depending on what area and how much I need to define it. Now the final step, Photoshop!! Just going to play around with contrast and colour settings. I make a point to sharpen since the pencil lines tend to be lost . And we're done. Thanks for watching!!
