And picking the white color, create several small stars of different sizes that must be placed like in the next image.

Get the next instrument again to picture a figure colored in EE1C25 with the parameters demonstrated below.

Blending Options-Stroke

The same instrument can be helpful in representing the next image with the same color and parameters shown next step.

Introduce the same elements on the other box, but this time you must pick the next color – C4151C.
