I want to say I'm finished, but really, give me FEEDBACK on COLORS. I love my values, so please don't touch 'em >: D but colors, colors COLORS! What hues should I fix the airship/girl with? I wanted red/green but it wasn't working well with the cool colors of the background's blues and what not...... I was thinking of keeping this very monotone/analagous and just kept close to blue and blue-purple colors........
ok enough of me, give me feedback please! And thank you
I would say throw a hint of pastel-y orange in the fog in the valley. It would compliment the blue throughout the image and give it a nice overall feel in my opinion. Just something to try, but really nice work! I Love the drawing
Thank you very much! I tried putting in some orange (to compliment the blue!!) but the teacher said it didn't look like "believable fog".... I even tried making the moon look a bit orange too (like this one: [link] ) but it ended up looking like a sun. The teach mentioned that it probably didn't work having the moon look like that 'cause in that image, there's a character to be silhouetted. Unlike the image I came up with.... T____T
But hey! Thanks soo much for your input! I really do appreciate it. Thanks again!
When I first saw the piece as a thumbnail I couldn't really make out what the subject of it was. The cloud or the insect. I think that your insect guy's lighter colors are too close to the cloud's colors. I know you like your values, but maybe you can desaturate your bg a little bit so that your characters pop out. Or with color, you could add a little reddish/pink to your character. Like not completely change it to that, but mix them into the colors that you already have for your characters. You wanna keep a cool feel. A good tip I learned (which is bad for your eyes) is to squint at the overall composition and see if you can make out what the subject is. Or just look at the thumbnail. Hope that helps a little. Experiment! I'm lovin the illustration!
Aw thanks! Maybe I'll try and bump up the linework somehow..... I started traditionally so this isn't a fully digital piece. It's hard to mess with linework when you already painted values OVER it >___<
