Today we are going to design a character maybe for a video game.
I will use my Wacom tablet to do this one; and maybe some PS effects and styles; will see.
The idea is to create a Bug like NPC (non playable character) enemy character.

So let's begin.

Create a new document 1024x768 and a new layer.







Use some gradients on it to create our background.















Here is the result:



Pick this brush with these settings and begin to paint.







Well, we get something like this.







No custom colors, just the colors from the original gradient image.

Create another layer ? character layer.
