Hi guys,
I wonder whether you could help me out a bit.
I am trying to emulate clouds as seen from space (looking down on earth), something like in this picture:
I searched the entire forum and got some clues, but I am not yet confident enough to make a start. Here are my 3 questions:
1. For such type of clouds, would you paint them over the darker background, or scratch them out of the background layer?
2. Would you use sort of a stencil or tool to cover a larger area efficiently, or tackle each cloud one by one?
3. Would you use a stencil (such as a ripped paper or a scotch brite pad) for the “hard” edges, or freehand?
It would be great if you could provide me with some pointers – that would be much appreciated!
