How Do You Color In Your Traditional Pieces? I Love How You Do It!

How do you color in your traditional pieces? I love how you do it!

I'm not sure if I can explain this well, but I'll try!

1. What i first do is line it in two shades of brown, then I'll put the base colours down. Why I do this is because the brown would give it a softer look and putting down your base colours are well, its ment to be a base.

2. For shading I'd use any colour exept gray! Using different colours would make it more interesting to look at but gray is still an option if that's what you're going for, I'd usually use pink or purple for most of my art when I don't have the character in a specific setting. There are additional things you could add, like putting orange to make the pink shading more warm toned or putting blue to make it more cooler , I like to add green sometimes in highlighted areas for extra detail.

A good way to learn how to shade is to use a gray scale, its when you only use black and white. It helps teach you to know where to put the shading and highlights.

3. I use a white gel pen to highlight and separate areas to help make them stand out when they blend into eachother.

Sometimes you'll see me use textures in my art, you'd only want to use textures when you use very simple shading or no shading at all. If you do use textures on detailed shading then it'll clash together to Much and give you a headache (i know this from experience.)

Here's an example with a bad drawing.

Some smaller things I do is go over it again after the base with the same colour to where I want the shaded areas to be. You can see this a lot on the green. I slowly build up the shading to lightest to dark.

I hope this was helpful for you, sorry if your unclear on some parts. I'm not best at explaining things.

Wind as the chosen hero :D for the misplaced heros au

Hi, I would just like to say that I think your art is really amazing!!! I love your style and am really excited to see the comic your coming out with!!!! Remember to drink water and rest, your doing grate!💖💖💖

Aw thank you <3 that really means a lot. take care of yourself and I hope you're have a nice day :))

Has anyone else made fan art of this AU or written anything for it? And no matter what the answer is, would it be alright if I wrote something once all the players are introduced?

Really? I'd be ecstatic if you did :> anyone's open to make anything of these links. Oh, could you send it to me if you end up making It!!

Just found out about the misplaced heroes au and all I can say is 🥺🥺🥺 I already love them all dearly 🥺🥺 fantastic job on the designs

😳😳 I'm not sure what to say but I greatly appreciate it! Theres a lot more to come with these guys too 🙃 I'm still debating how much angst I want but once their all done then that's when the real fun with begin.

Wind (hyrule) - he grew up to be a sailor around his grandma, he is still down on himself because he wasn't able to "save" her. He started his journey by getting lost and ended up on the forsaken fortress.

Twilight (legend) - from the fanfic that this idea is from, him and midna sass at each other a lot. In ordon village he helped with farming and entertaining the kids. Since he wasn't traumatized by koholint he still shows that he cares about others, he's very similar to jojos legend but more soft. Jojos twilight also has face markings and I thought of giving him some, but why not give him permanent pink hair instead.
