okay guys... every single video on Cartoonist Kayfabe is great, but THIS is your single most valuable video. you guys are the shit in a way that's hard to quantify. sharing info like this is punk as fuck and proof that you guys are artists' artists through and through.
I have a similar approach. Many years ago, I bought a book called: "The Designer's Guide to COLOR COMBINATIONS" by Leslie Carbaga. I knew the author from his "The Fleischer Story" book about classic 30's/40's Animation. And I got the Color Combo book cheap, thru Bud Plant Books. What I like about it, is that all of the color swatches in the book are broken down into the percentages of CMYK, to create each swatch. I don't have time to look up specific numbers in PS. Or, to remember what a "Bumblebutt Yellow" looks like.. The book also is broken down into historical eras. Which is also extremely helpful, when you're trying to emulate the color palettes of a specific time period. Highly Recommended!
Not only the guides are expensive, but they expire! as light and usage deteriorate the color in the guides. You gotta keep buying them over time D: This is a solid alternative, thanks guys.
I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who would like to see more of your tools in action. I saw an interview of Ed using his ”archaic tools" and that's what got me here. love your stuff but I wanna see you "do more comics." thanks for all the awesome free content and thanks for your years of dedication to the trade. love both of your work and hey Tom's okay too.
I still have a gigantic Pantone wall chart from years ago; every damn color all on the same page, from the days when separations were done by hand. This book is a great find.
3 show and tells in one week?? youre SPOILING us, you guys ever gunna talk about some heavy metal magazine stuff, only just truly read it and that stuff is fire
