緑色が主な絵なので、下地に赤を塗ってから描き始めました。草を描いた隙間から見える赤が、良い感じに色の深みを出してくれます。

下地が補色関係の色に近いほど、コントラストが効いて活き活きと見えるように思います。

I love this game, I love Lost Planet 2 so much. @dammitjosh got it for me as a birthday gift and we stayed up all night playing it, laughing and screaming.

I worked as an assistant to Hirohiko Araki,the creator of
"JoJo's Bizarre Adventure"
and learned numerous manga techniques from him. This is one example.

@ChazakielDoremi I need video of the musician jamming on a cavemans instrument

[Joshua Santamaria Z @dammitjosh]

@sandman_AP I think he nailed it. OP manga has not been the same for many years now and feels very much like there is no restraint to Oda’s ideas and reveals. This latest chapter is an example.

The Frieren story seems perfect for side-questing and getting lost in little moments of character writing and exploration amidst a bigger plot point.

[Joshua Santamaria Z @dammitjosh]

You know what sucks? We don't live in a world where we could play a Frieren tie-in RPG anymore. Where's my turn based SNES style TRPG? My PS1 cash in with extra animated cutscenes? We used to be a proper society.
