Ok It’s our second day for the tutorial, this time we will do the colors, shadings and highlights. Let’s begin and open up our Illustrator again and let’s get back to where we are last time.
Hmm…lets see, ah yes this is the one.
Color Flats
Now from this state we’ll add in some colors, first let’s start with the nose, click the nose and from the color picker choose a carroty orange. By the way the color mode I used in this tutorial is CMYK, which would be ready for printing If you want it to be printed. Mine is C=0, M=50, Y=100 K=0 or F7931D for RGB
Next we move on to the twigs, choose a brown one for these. Just type C=32 M=48 Y=76 K=20 or 967348 for RGB.
We now move to the two big lumps of snow. To clearly see the parts that you wanted to color, let’s try and use some object hiding, choose an object that you want to hide and press Ctrl + 3 now it’s hidden, try it on another. Don’t worry we’ll bring them back later, the good thing is that we can clearly see the objects that we wanted to color, choose a sky blue for the two After having the colored the body and head. Press Ctrl + Alt + 3 and there you go, the hidden objects are back, this shortcut really helped my workflow especially when trying to do some of this kind. Lets use C=32 Y=0 M=6 K=0 or for RGB. » Read more: How to create a snowman: Coloring
