thanks, was an experiment, more grey tones with color overlays.

That's something I should try more too. Then again, maybe I should stick to cell shading and see how far that craft can take me.

there you go, you can see it's got a different saturation on the tones.

I do like the look still. It's a style choice for a very specific look.

I kinda don't recomend it, It's a technique used with oils and older painting style. But instead layers with colors take way the grey tones as they layer option comes in. It's different when you mix colors with grey like in oil paints, but it's interesting technique if you practice it.Β

You nailed his creepy vibe well! I always forget to add blur like this when working. Good job!

thanks, yeah, it's a different style of coloring, actually flatter and darker. The colors seem more intense when they became layer effects over them.

thanks.
The lighting is odd for me because I did a lot of my work on a grey tone and had colors overlay. And the problem with that is that the colors would come out more saturated or wouldn't register in the white spots compared to the original grey. It's a different way of coloring, considering I wanted to do something different but it is very different energy in the end.

I have never been able to use that method of B&w shading, and color overlay. It worked super well here though

yeah, I'm rethinking a lot of ways how to work because I have a billion ideas that have been dormant since I haven't had a good PC and Wacom.Β

Are you resupplied now?

My problem is, I sit in front of a computer all day at work, so I have a hard time sitting in front of the computer to do digital illustrations. That's part of why I have been experimenting with watercolor and Sculpey so much.

hmmmm depends, how you set up your work flow. Actually what helps for me, a lot of it is that momentum, so now I've found that is the risk to do something like a different brush stroke that either doesn't work or does work. So then with that, then I can like proceed. But I am stopping pieces to work on something else so then I can come back and re-examine the piece that was giving me problems. Β It a lot about perspective, it doesn't help to work on scheduled, but it helps produce work.
hehe, you shouldn't be so hard, your work is exceptional!
