Wow, a quick tip video that actually gives an amazing, CRUCIAL tip. This is excellent man thank you. I did not realize that shading with cold colors works so well in warm skin tones. Beautiful trick.
Thanks for the video. I've only done penciling and inking up until now so this was an interesting intro for coloring. I might get your complete course later because this looks like a very fun and interesting topic.
How do we know when we’re supposed to use a cool shadow, and when we’re supposed to use a warm shadow? I haven’t found any comprehensive instruction on this, so I can only guess from observation. I think if it’s a warm light, then it’s supposed to be a cool shadow, which is tinted with blue. If the light is cold, then it should be a warm shadow, which is tinted with yellow. But if the light is warm, and the shadow is neutral, then I have no idea. Also, I’m not sure how to color-pick specular highlights. They’re very bright, but I don’t think they’re supposed to be purely white. I think even the whitest specular highlights probably need to be tinted, but I’m not sure what’s the right way to tint them in each situation.
ruclips.net/video/xZKS34TwaLY/видео.html this video explains shadow colors a bit. Specular highlights reflect the color of the light source making them usually.
@@colorwithkurt Thank you for the video suggestion! I watched the video you shared and it definitely has some good tips on color-picking light & shadow. As for the specular highlights, I’m still uncertain but I will try out your tips about tinting the specular highlights with the color of the light source. A lot of the time, it seems that the light source is either yellow due to the sun, or white due to artificial lighting. My observations could be wrong though. If I do make these highlights white or yellow, I’m not sure how bright I should make them, and whether I should reduce the opacity or tint them with some other color. I really want to learn how to get better at painting specular highlights, so I can be better at painting glossy skin, lips, & clothing. Making things shiny in an artwork is probably the most fun part of the process. If you make any future tutorials on the topic of light & color, I would love to see a video on specular highlights. Thank you 🙏🏻😊
Yeah that seems to be the issue that I'm having- color theory. I understand the general rules, but when trying to process the info and apply to a work it just comes out ALL WRONG.

How about specular highlights?
How do you approach color-picking those?
thank you so much
This is amazing
This was such a helpful tip ...
Your tutorials are great! May I ask what brush you used for his skin?
great video good sir.
Dear sir, what would you recommend If you ever want to print this something with so much color in normal White paper?
for example, publishing in a site like creative space with the Art quality that you have :)
K Michael Russell don't worry! you're So kind and helpful :) New sub btw (If I figure out what I was asking I'll let you know ;)
Good vid, kinda miss you speed colors tho lol
Your *
So would shadows or highlights be more saturated?
It can really go either way. I'm working on a video now that should answer some of those sorts of questions though.
@@colorwithkurt thank you! I'd like to be able to do things from my imagination with colors looking right.
ive been trying to use use blue as a shadow but i use low opacity, making the shadows really really blue just looks bad to me
ohh okay makes more sense now, the warm and cool shadows is something thats really a struggle for me. can you make a video about colour theory?
***** thank you!

Shan Nabors yes understanding is easy but application is the hard part
I just got that book, but have yet to read it.
What brush did you use on octopus?
***** Thanks!
Was about to ask the same thing. thanks!
