drawingden: miky91ftw: drawingden: nakama-yasukata: A quick tutorial about how I finish coloring woman’s skin. Hope it could be some help. 日本の厚塗りの講座では、血色について説明してあるものが少ないように思えたので、思いついたことからちまちまと… Admins note: A translation from any followers would be helpful! This is a rather quick translation, sorry if it sounds a bit off An advice on complexion* usually, when we talk about “thick painting”, it is often explained as a technique that allows - as shown here - to add tridimensionality to drawings by using 1) a main skin color and 2) darker colors (shadows). However, this technique, when used by itself, may give a sort of inorganic impression, akin to porcelain (tn: rather than flash). You can achieve a more lively look (lit: the impression comes alive) just by adding a complexion tone on the bridge of nose, the cheeks and the lips.You can gradually get confident with this method by starting to apply little by little a “blush” color on a new layer with 70% opacity. Side images: Don’t overdo it! You can add the finishing touch with an overlay. *(the two kanji on the title literally read “blood color”. they refer - most likely - to the reddish tone of the skin in areas with more blood vase like the lips or the cheeks. I dunno if there is an english word for it)The last sentence is kinda wired, so aside from the 70% bit the part about getting used to this technique was a bit freehanded. Thank you! -- source link
