Color Process

Share

Hello guys! Some people were wondering of how I color my images. Well, this is one way I do it. Sometimes I start directly from color, but on more intricate pieces, I start out with a grayscale image to set up lighting and composition.

amazing...do u use overlay layer or something when coloring??

mlillustration responds:

Yeah, I usually do multiply, overlay, then soft light.

This is a wonderful explanation. I'm putting together a color harmony tutorial over at art101.newgrounds.com, would you mind if I inserted this image into the lesson? I'd link back to you of course.

Wonderful! It's cool to see how the image developed in detail. The lighting and skin tones are perfect by the way. Although the clothing lacks notable texture.

mlillustration responds:

Thanks so much!!! Studied a buch of other artists before I got sort of decent lol!
