Oooooh my god ohmygod π
I love how you capture gojo through your artwork and the way you paint! Youβre my favorite gojo artist. How do you pick your color palettes and how color your art from grayscale? Iβm trying to change my rendering techniques but am struggling big time. Do you have any tips? πππ
sorry this was a tough ask to answer i know its oldπ
so what i can recommend is to first: have a folder of pieces you like the color palette of and study how the colors are laid out. try to tie your observations back to color theory as well.
next the best hacks i learned were the hsb and gradient tools. some ppl may consider gradients a cheat but hey if it works it works. hsb allows you to slap any color as ur best guess and then keep adjusting until it hits The Spot.
you can also use the curve tool at the very end (or during if you want, itβs your journey) to make final tweaks to contrast and saturation. Sometimes i just go wild on it to see if anything cool happens.
to go from gray scale to color you want to learn the color blending layers and what they do. But most important I recommend learning what Overlay can do for you and your loved ones.
Color blending layers are how you apply color.
When working with overlay in a grayscale to color setting you want to remember that your base is literally 100% desaturated. So the color you apply over that needs to be as saturated as possible! Try to stick to bright saturated colors for the most part and avoid dark and desaturated colors on the overlay layer unless working in shadows (dark) or highlights (desaturated).
Tbh I think practice a lot even if its a struggle. Donβt give up. And you donβt have to get there immediately. what i did in the beginning was heavily rely on gradients and color blending. As i got more comfortable with the color blending layers I started doing my rendering in an off red pinkish color. This was easier for me than direct transition to grayscale because the bit of color allowed me to color parts like skin with less struggle.
experiment!! i only talked about overlay bc in my understanding its whatβs used by most grayscale artists. but literally every color blending layer has something to offer and you should take the time to find what works for you.
