So, I was wandering around Pinterest when I found a little exercise in creating a scene with layered silhouettes. I thought it looked pretty cool, so I gave it a try. (If you're interested, you can find the tutorial here: drawingden.tumblr.com/post/139… - the original apparently used to be on dA, but the link's dead.)

I'll be honest: grouping, like masking, is one of those things I haven't fully grasped yet, so I did mine a little differently using in Clip Studio Paint. Each layer behind Trev and Tak was set to a different opacity, then one by one merged down into a blank layer, preserving the shade variations. The figures and the foreground were each left on their own layers. Then, I did the color layer and set the background layer to 70% opacity over the color layer. Aside from that, pretty much just followed what the process.

Anyways, I'm pretty happy with how it came out, and it was a fairly quick, rather fun little exercise.
