    Colors DO tend to bake darker. I've had this happen and I've been happy I did a sample one first because I would have been very upset. This is super important if you're doing things that are very color specific like skin tones. One pin I did called for a very pale skin tone and the pantone I picked should have been right. But the sample came out looking HELLA TAN. I had them go one or two shades lighter to compensate and it turned out perfect

      @BeckyHelms  3 года назад +1

      Totally! That’s an issue with lighter creams and skin tones especially! I’ve found the severity can very between manufacturers and for some manus, it’s not a problem at all. Definitely something to look out for ask about before ordering!

    🎨 I winged it for my first pin and it turned out decent, but I did invest in a Pantone book last year and love looking through the colors! I use sticky note tabs when I find a color I might want to use for the pin I'm choosing colors on. IO didn't know about the recolor artwork trick so I'm going to have to keep that in mind!
    Sadly, with a day job, I have no real choice but to pick colors at night, but I do have Hue lights so I can at least set them to cooler lighting when I do so!
    Some things we also have to keep in mind is that the colors tend to end up a bit darker for enamel pins, and also yellows are apparently a pain in the butt and sometimes turn muddy/greenish. I haven't had it happen yet but I've received a lot of pins that have yellow where I'm pretty sure it didn't turn out quite how the artist intended.

    • @BeckyHelms
      @BeckyHelms  4 года назад

      Liz Walker Someone else mentioned using sticky notes and I think it’s SO smart! And as long as you’re lights aren’t super warm, I’m sure it’s fine!
      Pastels cane be tricky and pastel yellows especially so. I haven’t had any trouble with them with manufacturers, but it’s definitely something to be aware of for sure!

  • @YuHekal
    @YuHekal 4 года назад +1

    I love to choose the colours so much, I even flag them with a teeny tiny sticky note to decide which ones i love the most :D:D .. but thank you for the Recolours tip, sometimes I struggle with printing and try to choose a similar colour to the one i drew the illustration with, but this tip is a time saver!

    • @BeckyHelms

    Thanks for sharing! I already knew about pantone, but I think I learned about needing to use coated pantone for pins from your pins 101, which was soooo handy to know! But I did manage to finally get my hands on a pantone book for a good price thanks to your link :D (as a graphic designer, it's been on my wishlist anyway for the odd times i need to do pms for a client haha)

    • @BeckyHelms
      @BeckyHelms  4 года назад +1

      Leona Robinson I’m glad you liked it! When it comes to glitter, you’ll want to ask your manufacturer for glitter samples. They should have examples to show you. A lot of them have a standard silver or iridescent option that looks nice on all colors and some will try to match your pantones with the closest glitter color they have. I hope that helps!! (My snow cone pin is a good example of matching color and my spooky skull pins have iridescent, btw 💕)

    • @six.studios
      @six.studios 3 года назад +1

      As someone using procreate, you can use whatever colors you're into, and then select "Values" under the color wheel option. this will show you the hex and rgb of whatever color you're currently using. Then you can pop over to pantones website, input either of those values and itll give you pantone swatches close to the colors that you're looking for

    • @thriftstorefashionista7084
      @thriftstorefashionista7084 3 года назад +3

      Google the artist Angelica Dass and the Humane project. She took thousands of portraits and then matched them with the right pantone. She toured with an exhibition of it. She does sell posters for like $200 on her website but you should be able to get the information you need from just looking at the websized photo of the poster that's on her site. I'd also recommend choosing one or two colors lighter than you are intending because colors can bake darker and I've had samples come out with skin tones looking a lot more tan than I wanted
