Step by Step Process

---

LAYER 1

---

---

---

• First I open the ibis Paint X application, there is a menu select My Gallery, there is a new canvas display, the canvas setting is 1080 x 1080 select OK

• Then there will be a blank canvas display that I will draw

• I will make a sketch first to make it easier when making drawings. Choose Brush, Custom, choose pencil

• Then select the red color in the colored box in the lower toolbar

• After choosing red color for the pencil, then we use it to sketch the moon and butterflies

• The sketch is ready

---

LAYER 2

---

---

---

• Now we will create layer 2 in the bottom toolbar to create an outline

• The outline that we will draw using a brush, choose a custom black (hard) dye to make it different from the color of my sketch using neon blue for the moon and butterflies

• Use eraser to erase unnecessary lines

---

LAYER 3

---

---

---

• Next we create layer 3 in the lower toolbar to color the image

• Choose a neon blue color for the base color of the moon using the colors in the bottom toolbar

• Choose a light blue color for the butterfly base color

• Use the bucket in the toolbar on the side and color the picture

---

LAYER 4

---

---

---

• Next we create layer 4 in the bottom toolbar to make the details of the neon glow on the moon and butterfly

• Choose white color for the tip of the moon and butterfly using the brush

• Use the gradient brush to color the picture

---

LAYER 5

---

---

---

• After coloring the image, apply dark and light effects according to the direction of the light on the moon and butterfly

• To make it look like there is volume, I put shading and highlighting effects on the moon and butterfly images

• Use the brush on the toolbar on the side, then select a custom airbrush, adjust its size and opacity

• The color used matches the neon blue color using an eyedropper

• Then color the borders between colors so that they are evenly mixed and soft

---

LAYER 6

---

---

---

• Give effects to images using a blue, neon light blue, and white gradient airbrush

LAYER 7

---

---

---

• Next we create a layer in the lower toolbar to make a star point

• Choose white color using brush

• Set the opacity and thickness of the brush

---

LAYER 8

---

---

---

• Next we create layer 8 in the lower toolbar to make a navy background
