This must be Dream-Roxanne. You can tell because her hair is parted to the opposite side. …And that’s the only reason.

Hi would you pls tell me how you do these shadows underwater? They look so real

Step one: don’t listen to anything I say ‘cause I’m no expert on this.

Step two: okay! The first thing I get down are the flat colors.

Step three: the shadows are added in a “multiply” layer. This is a dark blue painted with a brush tool. Soft edges where the transition is rounded, hard edges where it’s flatter (like with cast shadows).

Step four: highlights are added with a “luminosity” layer. This is a bright aqua on the surface side with even brighter strings where the ripples occur. On the ocean floor side I use a softer yellow reflecting the brightness from below.

Step five: the outlines are colored over using a masking layer. This is just a pure color layer that stays within the opacity of the line layer below it.
