This blew my mind. Colour has always stumped me, but your videos are connecting so many dots for me and make me excited to delve into and explore colour!
This was super fascinating. I'm not artist, but have always been a fan of comics and the process of making them. How you described the multiple light sources and how they interact with each other makes so much sense. Wish I had the talent to try it out.
Excellent video, very informative. Don't know that I can replicate that look, but it gives me an idea for a starting point. "And knowing is half the battle!"
I recently started watching your videos and find them extremely useful and helpful. I'm not a comic book colourist but your tutorials really helped me understand colouring better and simplified it. Thank you, keep it up! :)
This really helped to clarify somethings. In my mind when coloring I'm always thinking about the whole Warm colors vs Cool colors when it comes to light and shadows but but adding in the photography prospective and the use of a fill light within the shadow area and it taking on the characteristics of that light source (or also a reflected light) helps to add more to the image and also can serve to brighten the shadows to avoid muddy colors. This is something I'll definitely be implementing. THANKS AGAIN KMR!!
Love your work KMR. Question, what might you do in the opposite situation? So, if you had face mostly in a flat, even light with no dark shadows or intense hot spots?
My art class homework last week was about color temperature, and we were painting a rock in the ocean just using ultramarine and burnt umber. I was having such a hard time rationalizing where I could up the saturation without breaking the shapes of the shadow. I think it’s clicking now🤔
This opened up a new level of my brain. Thank you! So, one question I have is, in your opinion, when it comes to shadows, what’s the balance of inked shadows vs colored shadows? Since I’ve started really getting into coloring I’ve started to actually back off of larger blocks of ‘inked’ shadows and replaced them with colored shadows.
How do you come up with a base tone?is it the local colour in halftone. the local colour in the lightest part of the shadow.a mix of the highlight and the shadow.is it the local colour in highlight with the saturation lowered?ahh.Great vid.thanks.
A great video as always, I really liked the real-life explanation from your room. I was wondering if I have 2 light sources basically from the same direction or pretty close, and they are different colors will the strongest color always prevail? or is there a condition where I have to mix both colors and come up with something in between?
You have now unlocked a new skill: COLOR PSYCHO You may now notice colors of shadows in real life and try to figure out why they are that color! (1\1000 points)
Hi Kurt, Bravo. I learned to paint in oil traditionally over 20 years ago so knew the "warm light cool shadows" and "cool light warm shadows" "rules" but this is by far the best explanation as to why I've ever seen so I had to drop you this note. Also used your channel to understand how use the photoshop tools so thanks. Helped me a lot. (but I still like muddy colours ;-) Photoshop - ua-cam.com/video/vSpXY3Ygl4A/v-deo.html Traditional - ua-cam.com/video/5fh4_UzPU-I/v-deo.html Putting it together - ua-cam.com/video/GcrYhuuNTEU/v-deo.html
