Never Struggle with Coloring Your Characters Again! 🎨

Описание: Free Face Drawing Course 👉 lpart.me/faces Want to level up your illustrations? Here’s a simple 3-step method to color your characters like a pro—no matter if you’re using Photoshop, Procreate, or Clip Studio Paint!

✅ Step 1: Identify the Local Color
This is the natural, neutral color of your subject without any light or shadow. Imagine your character sitting in a plain white room—what color would their skin, hair, and clothing be?

✅ Step 2: Find the Shadow Color
Shadows aren’t just “black”—they take on the color of the environment! If your scene has a blue-toned light, the shadows will likely be deep blue. A simple trick? Sample the darkest areas of your reference to see what color your shadows should be.

✅ Step 3: Add the Light Color
The light source affects everything! If your scene is lit with a cool blue, highlights on the character will reflect that. To apply this, use an Overlay layer and paint in the light areas, cutting away parts where shadows fall.

And voilà! With just three key elements—local color, shadow color, and light color—you’ll get a dynamic and realistic look. ✨
