Opal velvet. Steps

I have not updated the gallery for a long time. Well, let's play. Here is the standard way for each of my art. At my discretion, it may begin with the third step (but only when the picture was originally executed in the album, but not in the notebook as here). Or if I want to work out all the details, reflections and shadows (omitting the cartoon style), then after the fifth step supposed to be one more. Or two.

1. The output from the scanner glass. Scared?
2. Never mind. Selecting the background. This will be the basis and the mood of the picture.
3. Removing of junk on the outline. In this case, the graphs and pieces of the other sketch. Licking into shape, making it darker.
4. Picking up the colors. The most treacherous stage.
5. Time to grind the rough stone. Cut off all the unnecessary and sew whatever you want. Not too many details, but the difference between the last two steps is already obvious.
