How to draw a forest

Draw a tree that anyone can easily look like

If you can draw a tree somehow until the last time, you must be able to use it! Of course, if there is only one kind of tree, there will be no unnaturalness, but let's cover it with corrections and processing. Anyway, it's meaningless to make use of the material you made, so this time I will introduce how to use it for application.


If you want to draw in perspective

In the background, there is basically a perspective view called “Perth” in any case. If you don't have this, you will obviously have a tree that is not in contact with the ground and is floating.

That said, even if Perth says that Perth has decided and drawn it, it will never look like it will be beautiful, so it is enough to make it moderate.


It would be nice to make a perspective and place it on top of it. You don't have to know one-point perspective or two-point perspective! You can easily parse by searching for grid pattern data from Internet image search.


Just transform from "Deformation"> "Deform freely" in the SAI or Photoshop menu to a trapezoid and extend it. If the trapezoidal shape and the narrower length are considered to be cocoons, the central point can be made to the cocoon.

By the way, the height of the field of view changes depending on whether you take the cut of the cocoon up or down. The more you take it down, the higher the camera position, and the higher the angle you are looking at.

Place the tree you made


If you start work from the front, it will get in the way of the firewood, and it is just right to see the overall balance. The size of the tree is quite different, but it is strange to make it too unnatural, so it is better to put together the size of the tree that seems to be as much as possible together.


If you arrange them properly, you will notice that the trunks and leaves are exactly the same. This is where the corrections are made. Let's increase the leaves and change the shape of the trunk. It is OK to some extent because it is not so conspicuous. By the way, it's even better to make a tree that leans.

In this way, we will place trees every 1-2 squares. If you grow too much, it will become weird, so let's adjust it moderately. Again, if you give a random feel to the arrangement, it will become more natural. A random feeling is the life of all natural objects.


Now that the tree is in place, give it a feeling of air. Basically, the background becomes closer to the color of the background (sky) as you go to the fence. It may not look so much in an actual forest, but in the case of illustrations, if you have a feeling of air, you can feel the depth beautifully.

So, if the background is the sky (blue system), the color will be close to blue. If the background is white, the color will be close to white. Let's also add a step with a gradation like this. Also, if you adjust the color, it will look more like a forest.

Make the ground

For perspectives where you cannot see the ground, you can draw a background, but if you can see the ground, draw the ground. Even if it says to the ground, it may feel quite a lot of patterns, such as the ground where the soil is fully visible or the ground where the grass grows, but the difference in color and the arrangement are different So the basics are the same.

To make it look like that easily

The easiest way is to hide. There are not only trees but also bushes in the forest, so it is a way to hide the roots of the trees with bushes. You can make bushes easily by using a leaf brush, and you can grow bushes wherever you like.


Paint a sticky ground with a leaf brush and blur the eyelids.


Just put the bushes. This is the easiest. However, this is a technique that can only be used for eyes that are difficult to see the ground. This hand can not be used if the background of the angle that can see the root of the ground.

When the ground is visible

In this case, you should almost certainly draw the roots of the tree. When drawing roots, it is better to draw while looking at the real thing with a photo. Angle is especially important, so if you can't find it after searching, go for a photo by yourself. The tree grows everywhere, so it ’s easy to find materials.

If the place where the tree grows is a place where the grass grows, it is better to grow a little longer grass at the root. It's even better if you add some flowers. Also, if you draw a creeper plant that clings to the trunk of a tree, you can see a forest.

You can't say that if the ground is soil. Anyway, stones and dead leaves must be placed next to the roots to make it look like it. If you draw the roots properly, it will look dirty.
