@quirinah Here's Your @pnatsecretsanta Gift!!!!!!!!!! Somehow, In My Mind, The Idea Of A Fantasy Au Morphed

Something I try to keep in mind when making art that looks vintage is keeping a limited color pallette. Digital art gives you a very wide, Crisp scope of colors, whereas traditional art-- especially older traditional art-- had a very limited and sometimes dulled use of color.

This is a modern riso ink swatch, but still you find a similar and limited selection of colors to mix with. (Mixing digitally as to emulate the layering of ink riso would be coloring on Multiply, and layering on top of eachother 👉)

If you find some old prints, take a closer look and see if you can tell what colors they used and which ones they layered... a lot of the time you'll find yellow as a base!

Misprints can really reveal what colors were used and where, I love misprints...

Something else I keep in the back of my mind is: how the human eye perceives color on paper vs. a screen. Ink and paint soaks into paper, it bleeds, stains, fades over time, smears, ect... the history of a piece can show in physical wear. What kind of history do you want to emulate? Misprinted? Stained? Kept as clean as possible, but unable to escape the bluing damages of the sun? It's one of my favorite things about making vintage art. Making it imperfect!

You can see the bleed, the wobble of the lines on the rug, the fading, the dirt... beautiful!!

Thinking in terms of traditional-method art while drawing digital can help open avenues to achieving that genuine, vintage look!

Her’s some more Big Hero 6 concept art.  I worked on the sets for the Campus Tech building and the interior labs of the “Nerd School”.  It was always part of Hiro’s story that he was a genius kid, but messy.  The top drawing is for the Lab he shared with Tadashi in an earlier form of the story, and the bottom is his horribly cluttered desk space.  In an earlier version of this drawing he had manga pinned up, but it got changed to bees and ants.   Supposedly he’s studying bees and ant colonies as part of his microbot research.

my final assignment for CG! we made a short film to mimic a papercut style of stop motion animation so i reanimated an episode of my favorite show in the universe. a lot of learning and modeling and suspiciously concerning error alerts and crashes but really happy with the result :"D 👍👍

animation, compositing: autodesk maya, adobe aftereffects

save me rarepair with only like two dedicated people who make stuff for it that haven't been active in over five years...save me...

‼️DISCLAIMER: I am a still a student and have only worked on student and indie projects! This is just stuff that I personally find helpful as an amateur, so feel free to take it with a grain of salt!

Happy boarding, friends! ✍️💕
