In today's video we're going to do a full walkthrough on how to do a cartoon head. Without further ado, let's jump right into this thing. Okay first thing you want to do after you done dragged and dropped your picture inside Adobe Illustrator. You want to drop the opacity down on the picture. Then you want to lock that layer. You want to create you a new layer right above it. Come up here to your brush. Come to this new brush. Click okay. Go to pressure. Put three right here. Put three on this side. Now you'll only be able to get that option if you're using a digital art tablet and I'm using a UG the one you can draw right onto the monitor and it comes with this little paint. You will not be able to get the pressure option if you're not using a tablet. First thing you want to do one thing I like about Adobe you can zoom in as close as you need to to make sure you get some pretty clean lines and if you don't got you a tablet I recommend you get your one and so you can have that pressure option because once you're able to set your pressure on your brushes give you this nice looking line these nice lines but we're going to do the glasses with our pencil tool so you want to collect your pencil move this color to the top make sure the bottom color is locked so we can fill in the glasses and okay now that we did our line work we made sure everything was clean and while you're doing your line work you want to make sure you're closing off areas you want to make sure there's no opening like in the neck or in the ears so when we do the coloring method you ain't got to worry about it messing up so make sure my lips closed off first thing you want to do is you want to select everything object expand appearance merge on your path finder to make all our lines one now you want to drag this to this blank sheet of paper to make a copy of the line work lock the top copy to the bottom we're going to select a good skin tone to start out with for our base color for your tire rectangle tool your artwork right click the color send it back do you know if you did that step right if you look over at your layers and you can see your line work on top of the color either you do that you want to select everything together then you want to click merge on your path finder to make it one with the color now right click on to to the color isolate select group and now you're gonna isolate every every area that's closed off that's why you got to make sure your stuff is closed off if you want to color color different from everything else the first thing we're going to do just color balance until we get to our last black layer and don't lock the top two isolate select group and we don't have to worry about making a mistake and so letting our black line work because we've locked all the layers anytime you mess up just hold ctrl and press z okay now that we've got the base color out the way it's time to do the shading and one thing I like to do when I'm shading I like to start with my dark colors so let's create a new layer in between the line work and the base color come over to your sample tool sample the skin tone and then we have to tweak it later we will we just want to get some good with our darker shadows and I come over here to your pencil tool make sure your color is on the top and the bottom one is locked I like to shade with the pencil tool so now I'm looking at the pictures I'm looking at the picture and I'm seeing where my dark shadows it I'm seeing where I want dark shadows and I'm just copying it and I just keep looking back and forth I'm going to sample the skin there you have it you guys how to make a cartoon head if you're new to the channel you already know the dumo heat coming soon and I'm out this time
