Have You Ever Done (or Thought Of Doing) A Coloring Tutorial? You're Coloring Is So Vivid And Beautiful!!!

have you ever done (or thought of doing) a coloring tutorial? you're coloring is so vivid and beautiful!!!

Wow! It’s really cool of you to ask!

Thank you! 💖 (〃ω〃)

Unfortunately I don’t have a tutorial for my coloring process. I’m not really sure how to make one since it’s mostly just me experimenting with layer effects, gradients, and textures, haha. I usually have a pretty good idea of what colors I wanna use, and then I just mess around with stuff until everything looks cohesive. I always start out with a base color layer that's similar to the on model colors, and then I have 2 or 3 additional layers that I use to transform the colors into something more vibrant. I use CLIP Studio, so I’m not sure what the equivalent would be for PS or Sai, but I usually set my layers to “screen” or “overlay.” That makes the colors more saturated or gives them that washed out 80s look. I also tend to limit my palette to 3 or 4 colors. It makes everything way more manageable. The biggest thing is don't be afraid to use neon or super saturated colors! As long as the whole image has them, they won't look out of place. I hope this helps!

Im Sorry That Im So Slow At Responding To Messages T-T

I’m sorry that I’m so slow at responding to messages T-T

Anon: ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ I spend a lot of time obsessing over the elements you listed, so it’s great to hear this from you!

Birdystark: That’s so cool! I’m touched your friend liked my stuff enough to share it with you! I hope your art studies are going well! I miss art school. It was an adventure and then some for me, so I hope you have a good time too.
