Animate reflection of the scene on a car windshield an anime style

Today we will learn how to design a beautiful anime scene, a girl inside a car, watching the outside scene, and how to make the scene reflect on the car windshield, in a transparent manner, and move the car in a way that makes it appear as if it is moving. Follow with me.

• Drawing the car and the girl :

As usual, we start preparing the scene, and we start drawing the car from the inside in a layer, and the outside in a layer, from the top only, without highlighting the wheels

And draw the girl in another layer.

Then we proceed to coloring, as shown to us in the video above.

• Add the glass in a separate layer :

We add a layer "Layer" and paint the windshield, and paint it white or dark gray.

Note: The size and shape of the glass must match the windows of the car through which the girl is looking

• Insert background:

At this point, we add any background we want to be reflected on the car's windshield.

• Adding the mask cutter :

1. We go to the "Node library"

2. We choose the "Cutter" and we add the "Cutter" tool, (you can search for it in the library)

3. Then we go to the "Node view", where we can see everything we have done.

4. And from there to the layer that contains the background, and we add a mask to it while pressing the Alt button

5. And connect it to the layer that contains the windshield of the car.

6. And double-click on the "black square" cutter tool, until the image is inside the glass frame

• Make the view more transparent :

Now we come to the part of reducing the image “the view”, so that the glass is transparent, from the Node view, we double-click on the layer for the background, and from it this menu appears for us and we do the following:

Advanced > opacity > 51

• Animation the background:

We move the scene or the background on the glass, through the Transform tool, in the opposite direction of the car's movement, so that it appears as if it is actually moving

1. Click on the background

2. And we add to it Peg

3. Select the move tool and take the image to the right

• Animating the car :

And now to the last part, so that we will move the car slightly

1. We go to the Node library

2. We select the Shake tool.

3. And to the Node view, and double-click on the tool, until this menu appears

4. Then choose the following settings

And now the lesson is over, I hope it was easy, and I'm happy to share this information with you, because I've always wanted to make a similar scene, where the character is sitting inside the car, staring away, and I've always wanted to see the background reflection on the windshield, and I asked Whether I can do it or is it hard, but luckily for me it's easier than I expected. Try the method on the car or train and master it.
