Quick Draw - Diamond

Needed to make a gem for a game so I decided to make a very quick 'how to draw' tutorial.

Drawing Steps

1. Draw a box

2. Select box, press "Q" (for transformation tool). click a corner, hold "SHIFT" and rotate to a perfect 90 degrees

3. Cut the top corner off

4. Fill the middle with a bright color

5. Use the line tool to divide the center shape into several shapes, fill them with different shades of the same color and delete the lines.

6. Add some details to make it look shiny

Here are some different color variations.  For the green one, I added a small amount of blue to the dark part to make it look more colorful.
