Hi there, Liron here!
In this video I'll show you how to paint the illusion of sunlight pouring through trees!

This is based on an old livestream.
I cut out all the chatting, leaving only the process.
Here are some keys π
- The tree trunks are visually influenced by the sun behind them - they almost act as if they're a little transparent.
- Light warm where the light is, dark cool where it's not.
- Golden green grass helps with the illusion of direct, blinding light.
- Main highlight that is paper white, surrounded by mostly darker areas.
I hope you find this one useful ππ

And I'll talk to you again soon,
