Looks fantabulous yo. So just so's I understand you're doing the greys for shadows and then you plant colors over this to give the rendering prior to colors?

theCHAMBA In reply to NinjaBits [2005-03-22 23:18:23 +0000 UTC]

well..

pretty much...

these aren't really greays.. more like a muted purple/blue... this is just one layer above the flats [which aren't visible in this pic] now above these shades will go the highlights [obviously.. ehe]

ironhenry [2005-03-22 13:59:49 +0000 UTC]

The costume is fantastic. The pose is super dynamic as always man! You've got some really good lookin' fists going there, the way the finger pattern twists. I think its kinda funny that his belly looks like mine; full of beers.

So, you're working out the tonal work in gray-scale and then multiplying that over the flat color shapes? I've got your color tute on my desktop, but this really helps clarify what it says. Sorry I'm kinda thick at times.

Well done drawing! I wanna see the end result

theCHAMBA In reply to ironhenry [2005-03-22 14:13:01 +0000 UTC]

well..
i don't work in gray-scale. i shade on one layer above the flats (w/ like a dark purple or sumfin) .. on a multiply like you just said.. then once this is done.. i then do the highlights w/ the cut-style method.. 2ndary lighting is also the cut style too

it's all in that tute.. but i';m sure this'll clarify it more..

ironhenry In reply to theCHAMBA [2005-03-22 14:35:28 +0000 UTC]

Sorry, monotone = gray-scale in my mind. I didn't mean like gray-scale vs. rgb vs. cmyk.

Yep, I this does clarify. Now all that's left is the work LOL! thanks man.
