someone asked for “no base color” version:

[arlei @baasamas]

hello, i was directed to this post. (i’m the oop. this is an old post and my method has changed a lot, but i’ll try lol)

it’s less about the skin color and more about having a “base” color to *unify* the palette. attached a quick sketch+color here. 👆😝

[StellDans @StellDans]

@katkiri_ei So hey, what if are 2+ character with dif skin colors? I have an unique pallete for each? Or I make a medium color of their skins?? Help😭😭

[arlei @baasamas]

the art in the post you replied to was made in photoshop. now i almost exclusively use procreate for drawing.

[maddie 🦇🩸 @jellyfishbraind]

@baasamas what app do you use?

[arlei @baasamas]

@ErnestoMantaras i imagine there are more variables with 3d, photography, etc so maybe this method wouldn’t apply very wellon those. but i think, like i said in another reply, it’s more like a training wheel to help you learn to see and pick cohesive color palettes.

[arlei @baasamas]

@jeongimiau whatever feels right

[arlei @baasamas]

i was asked how i choose colors:

[arlei @baasamas]

@varootski none; just lowered the opacity

[arlei @baasamas]

@RenardReads yes precisely!

[arlei @baasamas]

@SkyProwler01 i’ve never personally tried it. but tbh my goal was to learn to color pick via eyeball, and this method is basically like training wheels. so trying to find a workaround would defeat the point. 🚲

[arlei @baasamas]

@ErnestoMantaras good q! probably. but i think it’s more intuitive in digital art to make base solid colors that you paint over anyway rather than go straight to local color everything. also in my case, i reserve top layers for blend modes like multiply for shadows, etc.
