i got multiple questions about this, so i’ll just answer it on this ask

sorry i kept putting it off for so long…

so… i guess i would think of what kind of sky i would want

i like sunsets, so i’ll draw that

so i start with the very back color; it’s a dull purple

my intent is to go from purple/dark grey->peach/pink

i like to use this fuzzy brush

not sure what to call these… the ‘back’ / ‘dark’ clouds?

i put on random splotches at 40~50% opacity of dark blue around the edges

i’m going to put my light source at the bottom right, so i put a rusty orange color slightly at 10~20% opacity

then i blended the colors before i started to add more colors

the more you blend, the better the picture will look 8)

now i put my pen at around size 8-10 to put in thin areas of peach/gold where the light will hit at around 60% opacity

color it where ever you think it looks good 

i like to adjust my colors and edit on sai

on an overlay layer on top of the drawing, i airbrushed so dark blue in at the top left and right

then near the end i like to use the combination of lower brightness and higher contrast

i’ll put a video later since my explanation is horrible most of the time…

sorry i put the drawing sideways… it wouldn’t fit

try these drawings for reference…

maybe use the eyedropper and use colors from these?

hope that helps 

this is for the multiple color asks received

just adjust opacity and size depending on how crisp lines you want
