- [Instructor] Now I've gone ahead and saved out my Photoshop file so that we have a copy. So let's go ahead and start working with this. Now, this Photoshop file has all of the layers that we need, so we have layers for the lines as well as the shadows, and then we also have our color select layer sitting here at the top in case we need to select things by material. So the first thing we want to do is just get the lines of the drawing in place. Now, we can do this using the blend modes in Photoshop, so I'm going to go ahead and turn on layer two, and in fact, if we want we can double-click on this layer and rename it. I'm going to call this Line A, which is the original name of that file. And then if we want, we can do a multiply on this layer. So when we blend by multiply, it actually just allows all of the black to show through as it would in the SketchUp file. Now, we can certainly change the opacity of that and you can see that as I'm dialing up the opacity I'm getting harsher…
