Digital Coloring Tutorial - II

Some words

FINALLY THE SECOND PART!! *breathes*
It took so much time... (I'm so sleepy...) And still not finished... =_="

ハルモニアたすけて!!!

Looking again at this art... they are a good couple. (I would love to wear that Touko's dress.)

Why I can't use the black/white?
The black and white colors I can call them as absolute colors. Because they are the limit of darkness/brightness and originates any color.

In real world there won't have anything as bright or as dark as these two colors. They can only be reproduced in digital screens.

You can take a photo of the darkest thing you have but when you see better at PC it's a mix of various dark colors. Not an absolute black. Or an color close to the black but it won't have the configuration of 0 brightness (look at the value bar in the tutorial, it goes of 0 to 225, the 0 is the darkest point of the color)

If you use an absolute black/white it will be more detached, and usually it gives an annoying feel because your eyes can see the color but since it's used in small spaces it doesn't recognize where the color is. The same for white.

In the lineart for example: I used an absolute black at first, but then I lowered the opacity to 50 ~ 75.

Well... The next one I believe that it's the last one.
