Eeee I had been looking for something like this!

argyrism asked you:

This may/may not be true for other people, but when I’m wondering about how you choose your colors, I’m wondering about how you make everything, well, harmonic. Noisemaster is a good example of this: he’s got a wide range of colors, but they all work well together, so it doesn’t end up looking garish. So, how do you go about something like that?

Thank you! I want Noisemaster’s pages to look like I’m just selecting colors at random, but it’s really pretty simple. Sure, I use a lot of complementary pairs, triadic colors, etc., but I generally don’t have too much Color Theory Terminology in my head as I’m planning these pages out.

For reference, Pages 447, 448, 451 and 455.

I know I’m not great at technical explanations, but I hope this sheds a little light on what I’m doing!

Right. Here is it everything you ever wanted to know about fashion cuts, trends, style, all in one post.

Every example of a trend that existed is list in the above post. So get to know your styles, perfect your image and enjoy mixing trends and different eras together. 😍👌👌

I hope you don't mind if I bug you for tips on how to draw bruises and scars. Google has sadly failed me in my artistic endeavors.

Sorry it took me so long to get back with you! Using Kai as my unfortunate test subject, here’s a few thoughts about drawing various wounds. I hope they are at least a little helpful. :3If it’s not readable, let me know and I’ll tweak it x.x
