[WIP] Color Tests + Shading Mockup
Aight so I posted some colors over in my WIP acc on Twitter, a lot of people kindly gave their picks. I won't be going off on the most votes but the way I interpret some color combos changed after reading all the feedback. It gave me an idea of what vibe I wanted to go for thanks to all the replies I've received
Notes: A. Looks like he's facing a light source and kind of gives a hopeful look. It does show off some of my linework, particularly on the suit and bowtie. I like the colors and how vibrant they are, like neon. B. Reminds me of Hilda somehow? I like how dull the colors and how the light and shadow contrast with each other. With how dark the values are on the shadows, maybe I should start adding bounce lights? The shading took me like 3 hours, I don't really mind. C. I like how it has more blue in it, like he's actually in a digital space, similar to B, I like the contrast too. I like how vibrantly blue the shadow is. D. Seems like he's rotting away with the tint of green? And there's the warm light coming from his back to contrast the vibes. I also like how his eyes and teeth are more readable, like you actually focus on them. E. This one is overall darker, and it looks like the situation is hopeless. This one is literally A, but the light and shadow were switched. I still like the colors like this. I should also add bounce lighting here too ig? Also make the light stronger F. I tried slapping green against pink, cuz they're complementary. It looks like he's mad here? Not really what I was going for because he's supposed to be dejected here I've also been away from streaming and working on this cuz got really anxious from posting in twt cuz of a misunderstanding, but I think I should go back to it tomorrow? In the meantime, I want to catch up on Witch Hat and play games
