Here are some tips and techniques to produce a more complicated design. This will show you how to apply gradients to your patterns. A little more effort is required, but the final product is well worth it!

  • Draw irregular patterns to make the stone tiles look realistic.
  • Mix and match different levels of brightness to achieve a consistent pattern.
  • To make a gradient, pick a color that is 2 or 3 levels of brightness away from the original color. Put that color near the lines where you want to make the gradient.
  • You are not limited to just having grays and blacks as your colors. Play around with the color palette to see a fitting color or shade for your island!
