let's start out by taking a look at the anatomy of tears. <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /> droplets of tears stringed like veins in our body flow through us and well our eyes time to time. the more you cry, the malleable our tears become. here's a diagram of what our tears look like before they're released out into the world. <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/bb/c4/cayjFG43_o.png" alt="anatomy of tears" width="1000px" /> [[let's begin changing up this diagram so we can alter our anatomy to be even more watery and teary, better visualizing the vision of a perennial cry baby!!]] <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" />

to begin adding color and developing the texture of our tears to look dewy and dimensional, I've brought my diagram into autodesk sketchbook. drawing apps like procreate, clip studio paint, adobe fresco and any others you may be using will have similar filters available like the ones i'm using here. <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /> i've made a new layer to make a new line drawing by tracing my photoshopped diagram and chose a color palette that is mostly cool and some warmer colors. <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/5c/04/sJ0xNpdk_o.png" alt="traced sketch in autodesk" width="1000px" /> <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/bf/65/mzznxgAY_o.png" alt="color swatch in autodesk" width="1000px" /> [[let's move onto how we're going to build up our colors to make our tears glow up!]] <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" />
since we want a soft and blurry texture, i've chosen the hard airbrush to start building the texture of tears using mostly the dark blue purple, mixing a little bit of pink and teal green at the core of the tears and using an eraser to brighten up the highlights. here's an in-progress image of how the tears are starting to shape up. <img src="https://imgbox.com/ruK8h2Np" alt="autodesk color drawing in progress" width="1000px"/> here is the completed image with the outline of the tears changed from purple to white. <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/9e/f4/EPX5kokT_o.jpg" alt="autodesk color drawing completed" width="1000px"/> [[now, we're going to alter these tears to create some image variation to deepen the depth of our sorrow.]] <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" />
using the layer blend modes, i've darkened my completed image using blend mode > linear burn, <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/f4/89/wScKpSAH_o.png" alt="linear burn blend mode" width="1000px" /> and to deepen the tunnel for our tears to travel, i've duplicated my completed image into an additional layer, increased its scale ever so slightly to get a "misprint"/vibration visual effect, and changed its opacity. <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/f7/b6/Xktnug4J_o.png" alt="second layer transparency" width="1000px" /> [[with some addition of pain sparks sprinkled generously throughout, let's see how these layers all come together.]] <img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" /><img src="https://images2.imgbox.com/0e/6e/aBfxFKbG_o.gif" alt="black gem tears" height="50px" />
