Goldfish Digital Art

Hello everyone! Today, I’m going to draw a goldfish—a fish that I find incredibly cute, adorable, and unique. It has big eyes, a large head, and a round body, and it moves very slowly.

  • The steps are very simple; as usual, we start by using a 1:1 aspect ratio (2048 × 2048).
    and use the brush tool circled in red

  • Next, here we use the family colors orange and dark orange, light orange and add white

  • Next, we create a rough initial sketch to form the image of the fish.

  • Next, we roughly apply the characteristic colors to the goldfish.

  • Next, use the smudge or shading tool to create color gradients; apply this gradually, following the direction of the image rather than working against it. Finally, add a black background and draw a thin white line following the original sketch.

Lo que aprendí al ver tu paso a paso es que trabajar con una proporción 1:1 (2048 × 2048) te da la base perfecta para los detalles, la vida me enseñó que aplicar primero la familia de naranjas y luego el blanco genera profundidad rápidamente. Sin vueltas, el uso del smudge siguiendo la dirección de la figura evita que el color se vea forzado. 👍

It is spot on, because every time the brush stroke reverses direction against the image, it destroys the image.
