You may choose your own colors for your bow.

For this tutorial you will need Jasc PSP 8 .

You will need the canvas here.

On the canvas I have put the colors I used on a separate layer, delete when done.

1. Load alpha channel string right and flood fill with first color. Click on Float (CTRL +f) Apply cutout,  vertical and horizontal 0, opacity 100, blur 20, #8E2225. Add new layer, use air brush with these settings, size16, hardness 0, step 26, density 30, opacity 59. Use colors 2 and 4 to shade the areas in screen shot.

Use smudge tool to blend the shading.

2. Load alpha channel string left bottom, do the same as above. Shade areas as in screen shot.

3. Load alpha channel string left, flood fill with color 1. Click float, apply cut out. Add new layer, use air brush using colors 2, 3, 4 in areas on screen shot. Use smudge tool to blend the shading.

You will be doing the same for the rest of the layers. I will just put the screen shots on to show where the shading goes.  You will load alpha channel with corresponding layer, flood fill with color 1, float apply cut out. Add new layer and use colors in screen shots and smudge.

4. Load top loop right.

5. Load top right.

6. Load top left.

7. Load top inside left.

8. Load bottom inside left.

9. Load bottom left.  

10. Load inside bottom right.  

11. Load bottom right side.

12. Load middle

Ok now all the painting is done. If you need to do some adjusting or adding more high lights you can do that now. Use the #4 color to add some extra shadow for the string layers where they go under the bow loops. It is a little hard to see when you first do the layer as to where the dark shadows go. When it is all complete you can see where to add more. If you get too much high light just lower the opacity some. When you get it just the way you like delete the colors layer and merge visible.

They color very well too. The three below were the red colors and I just colorized them.

Hope everyone had fun with this.
