Hey, can y’all rb this if it’s okay to send you messages asking about your ocs, cause on god I wanna interact with y’all but I am terrified of being annoying lol

I see lots of "let people enjoy things" in fandom but no "it's not the end of the world if people don't like this thing you like, chill out" which is a shame I think fandom could benefit a lot more from the latter than the former

Some requests from IG

A couple of Josukes

YOUR COLORS ARE SO VIBRANT EEEE!!! HOW DID YOU DO THAT ON PAPER?? ITS AMAZING!!!!!

TYSM!!!! 🙏💕 I’ll do my best to explain!

Okie, so this is how my drawings look before I do anything to them. Depending on the lighting of the room, the color(s) might already pop well enough.

Next, I decrease the contrast. You can go all the way back to -100, but usually I go to about -70 or less. It varies from drawing to drawing and really just depends on what looks best to you. I also like it because any pencil/eraser marks don’t stick out as badly.

After that, I adjust the brightness and black point until they look right to me.

By then, the colors will probably be vibrant enough to where increasing the saturation won’t be necessary, but I say go for it if you want. I like to go up a smidge myself.

Lastly, I slap a filter I like best over the drawing (“Vivid” for the iPhone is my go-to).

And here’s the result! I hope this was helpful. :>

My Stone Ocean OC, Sheena!

Her name is a reference to the Ramones’ song “Sheena Is a Punk Rocker”, and her design is partially inspired by Joan Jett.
