Value Scale

A stepped value scale from light to dark.

Page 4: Value and value_scales

Create a value scale

• One end of the scale will be the darkest value (black).

• The other end of the scale will be white.

Page 5: Value and value_scales

Create a stepped value scale

• Each of the center blocks should show the gray value scale making a transition from white to black.

• Each block must be a different value.

Use the Pencil to apply values

• The pencil value should have a smooth surface. Use light, smooth strokes and build up the value by overlapping layers of pencil.
