Bruh you proved that anyone can draw if they get a proper medium of learning. I will recommend your channel if my friends wants to start drawing. Knowing the principle is very important, Thank you for the video! keep it up! You deserves more subs!
Thank you 😊
😊😊
I think one of the most eyeopening things I learned about color is that your palette almost doesnt matter. As long as you have good values in your image you can get away with almost anything. Think about contrast and where you want your focal point to be and the rest falls almost exclusively down to taste (not that color theory doesnt exist but it isnt nearly as important as people think imo)
I love your "no bullshit" approach to explaining these concepts! What most others would explain in half an hour, you explain in a few minutes.
Very efficient
great tutorial! i think (if you've missed it) that it's important to add more contrast, because the colour blind people (especially the achromatopsia type) looking at the artwork are gonna be like "why is it all the same colour 💀"
i think low contrast results in a softer looking image, so this tutorial is really helpful for something like that!
Yes, I realized that adding more contrast by increasing saturation makes it more appealing.
Yes, @limoncats21, and I think we all grasp values more easily than colors (there's a physiological reason for that, cones & rods stuff), which is why digital artists regularly switch to B&W to check that their image is "reading" correctly. It's a matter of finding a balance, so the image still reads well.
I think it depends what you want to convey since a low contrast image could make something look more "dreamy" as everything is less clear and defined, while a high contrast could be used to make something seem more "polarizing" and harsh. admittedly i know nothing about colour so take my words with a grain of salt 💀
@@halzionas someone who studied color theory a ton, ( been drawin since whole life lol ) what you said made perfect sense to me! :)
@@Sd0k1_ALTHey do you have some books to recommend on this subject?
Thank you for these videos
Sometimes i feel like ive got a very solid understanding of digital art but you always show me that there's more to learn
Many tutorial and training videos that I've tried to watch to help me feel very drawn out, or the purpose of why I'm there gets lost in a sea of words and phrases that i feel like I should "know"
Your videos feel more like a friend chiming in to let you know about something very cool that they thought you'd wanna know about and i love that
Thank you for your work, and I'm grateful to grow as an artist alongside you and your journey
yo I have been drawing as a hobby for years and have watched a bunch of tutorials, but colours are always one of the things I can never fully grasp usually opting to wing it in the end, and let's just say I finally grasp it from this 6 minute video :)
insanely high quality content keep up the good work!!
-phiioai
There's beauty in contrast too, brighter colors tend to have a more impactful color scheme than those unsaturated/limited color palette so it's always better to have more than one
i dont usually leave comments on these videos, but this video was mindblowing to me. ive been doing digital art since i was 10, and the main thing thats always confused me was color. these 6 minutes have taught me more than any other video has, and i feel excited to experiment with color. thank you :)
I have seen a lot of art tutorial videos but this is the first less than 20 min with this level of information. Such a great job!
This is SO helpful, and broken down so well. Thank you for making a colour video that isn't just picking a scheme, but showing how to use the scheme and apply lighting and shadows. And actually great video, thank you so much. 💕✨
I’ve been drawing all my life and studied color theory for years and yet this tutorial still helped me learn so much oh my gosh! thank you so much!! i was really art blocked as of recently so this really helps!
also WOW you're voice is really good to listen to, you speak so clearly that i can really understand what i’m learning :)❤
This is such an underrated video???
It compensated me on my lack of understanding in colors due to my tendency to draw in black and white.
I can't believe I didn't saw this earlier.
this is very well thought out, and pretty much all of them i have encountered when learning and making visual techniques, everybody always miss out on learning established theories and learning more for themselves that will help them immensely
Foudo, you are absolutely unmatched
Thankyou so much for this video bro 🙏🙏
Also I love the soundtrack in this video, really made your drawing feel magical
I liked how you delivered information. Very useful, definetly will rewatch. Thank you for sharing!
What an amazing content, I like your explanation bro, and also, the material in your video is quite unique and rarely people discuss things like this. Thx a lot🙏🏻
nice explanation. I Love the BGM tooooooooooooooooooo🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for making these videos, they're very helpful!
I love you so much
I learned so much from this
beautifully well said.
Bro, please make part 2! It is so good, i begin to color grading my photos, and your video help me a lott, thank youu!
Eye opening video. I feel my art getting better and better but i'm still stuck trying to figure out colors.
The color rhythm, color compensation and color transition were exactly what i was missing, thank you
Thank you very much for your effort and for sharing a little of your knowledge.
This really inspires me to continue drawing.
such nice video
thanksyou! so from Chile, latam
just found the channel but I like what is presented and how it was presented, will be subscribing to see whats next :D
This is so fantastic ,I watched it so much passion . I love it❤❤
i love you bruh. you saved my life. i could say this is the best educational video i have ever watched. this is amazing. you leave me speechles. BRAVO!
This was simple and helpful, thanks!
I'm going to subscribe...this guy made a YT channel I wanted also do but got lazy lol. I have to do something else nowadays and don't have the time anymore. So all I can do is support people who shared a similar goal.
thank you for this! people are always saying art is abstract and full of expression but i always felt like art could be learned logically, not just through feeling, and this is exactly what i've been looking for!! someone to teach things purely logically and very straightforward- subscribed! will look through your other content too :))
3:15 For an explanation of why this happens, I'll note two things.
- There's the physical limitations on your screen. To show yellow your screen can max out both the red and green lights in the pixel, but to show blue it can only use the single blue light. So cyan, yellow, and magenta can be shown brighter on screen than RGB.
- Even if you could get the amount of light being shined the exact same, your eyes are also biased to respond more to some hues than others due to biology. So it's a weird nonlinear problem.
TL;DR This is not an easily solved problem, just be aware of it and adjust things to be roughly correct across tones.
And if you're really curious...
Different color spaces like CIELAB or OKLAB can model how we perceive colors better than RGB or HSV, but I don't know of particularly artist friendly tools that make use of them. They're pretty cutting edge even for programmers and technical artists from what I've heard. If you want to learn more, there's multiple 40-minute videos on the subject I could point people to :p
I'd like to learn more. Can you give the video ids, please? (since links are not permitted afaik)

So I have like three videos in mind that all cover about-ish the same topics but not quite.
I can't perfectly gauge which would be best to introduce someone to the topic, but if you want just one video try "Your Colors Suck (it's not your fault)" by Acerola first.
"RGB to XYZ: The Science and History of Color" by John Austin also covers a lot of the history of color theory, and might offer more intuitive/visual explanations of how things work. Also has some good notes on sRGB vs linear RGB if you want to get into more technicalities with how computers handle colors
"The Amazing Math behind Colors!" by Kuvina Saydaki doesn't cover stuff like CIELAB or OKLAB but talks about some extra math/physics. (Though I'll note the very last section of this video kinda goes on opinion)
You probably don't need to watch all of all of them, as a lot of information is shared between these videos, but hopefully you'll find some stuff worth your time.
@@1ogic948 Thank you!
I have read about different colour models before, but to me it appears that their use is primarily determined by the application field. And more specifically, anything other than rgb/cmyk is used in more technical applications, such as engineering. So I am surprised by this idea that using other models can somehow improve your ability to choose colours. After all, I, as an artist, do not necessarily think of colors as a particular combination of R, G, B or C, M Y, K numbers.
Thanks bro I’ve always sucked at color and stuff like that but this is gonna help a lot😄
This was extremely helpful, thanks for this!
This was incredibly useful, thank you!
Pretty impressive! I didn't get the last part though it felt more like a stylistic approach. What is the "inference method" mentioned? Is it mentioned in another video?
We start with a high saturation color, and several other colors support it. This color scheme creates a basic impression. When we add more details and color to the illustration, we don't want to disrupt this impression. Therefore, we need to infer colors from the color scheme. We can choose a color that falls between two colors on the color wheel.
Ooof I’m gonna need to watch your video a couple times love this
Very good tutorial, some concepts that I didn't know about (and I've watched a ton of tutorials). A bit fast, though, I'll have to watch it a few times. Would you consider expanding on some of these in future videos? (I loved the art too).
ur content is amazing, thank you
Awesome. Thank you so much.
Love and blessings!
I think the most fun thing is that every day there's better tools for learning, applying, and analyzing art
and you can do a lot with a digital device and Internet
Perfect + subtitles !! Very very good.
Why does the ai voice just shift to a human voice (still seems like ai)
super informative, sleek, and to the point! thank you for taking time to make this video, the explanations were so easy to absorb! ^////^
I was waiting for you
Thank you sir this is very helpful 😊🙏
Thank you !
Thanks for this video, I now know what's the problem with my shadowing
thank you ❤
Thanks for your video.
I've been struggling for hours because I constantly go on a cycle of 'my art is not good, I do one good drawing and the rest looks so flat'. I rarely practice properly because I can't sit down to repeat stuff for hours and most tutorials I find are very long and I get impatient. You helped me though, it was easy to understand and I like how you explain. Your art is beautiful, I hope I can improve as well.
You can do it!
Perfect ✨
Personally, I don't feel like there's much wrong or right in the way that an artist could or should express their work. The only "improving" an artist should worry about is getting closer and closer to the art that they want to create deep down. That's the sort of improvement that matters.
All art is beauty in the eye of the beholder, others can appreciate or not appreciate any way they like but an artist should not worry about this.
That's just my persona opinion, as someone that chooses color by what I feel is "right" for my work.
That said, if an artist wants to employ certain techniques to their art, they by all means have all the freedom to do so. I just hope that they don't lose their voice and character in the process and I would even worry that all artworks would begin to feel the same as experimentation would be made through a narrow lense.
Thanks!
3:40 How do you use RGB COlor Panel to keep the value/brightness the same?
Nice i needed this ♥
I understand what you mean. But then my problem is choosing colors that fit together.
For example in 4:28 you say you start by choosing a primary color. My struggle is how to choose colors that contrasts with that primary color.
I know it sounds silly, but it really is a struggle.
❤️❤️❤️
thank you so much omg
the only thing about the AI voice is that there's no natural pauses to catch my breath while listening and the tone never alters to convey it. so the transitions between concepts are a bit jarring. this is an extremely info-packed video but it requires a lot of pausing and re-watching; if all that seems like nitpicking, nothing but positive praise for the amazing info presented here. thank you so much!
But you still used the whole colour wheel for this illustration though? You said to start with a primary colour and then use the colours next to it. E.g. with yellow, use greens and oranges. But you've got purples and pinks in here too so you've basically used the whole colour wheel. I'm still confused to how to choose colour schemes.
I will make a video talking about it in the future. If most of the color in the illustration is limited to a specific range, then we perceive it as a theme. For example, I used purple on the eyes. It "breaks the rule", making the eyes the focal point.
Which coloring theory did you use to choose the colors at 04:30?
as how many colors we choose for shading a well-lighting
3:40 Can you elaborate further how to use the rgb slider method for the grey in betweens?
Hmmm interesting... so what you Proposing is Control of Contrast of Colors -
Having Extreme High Contrast Next to low Contrast Colors will Prove to be Distracting to the Viewer, So you have to plan for them in Advance...
The way you Control the Contrast is By Looking at it in Grayscale (Windows has a Shortcut for it). and Changing the colors According...
There is one Method to Mention about Gradient-Maps (Gray Scale to Color)
I'm excited to try out your suggestion for transition colours. There was one section I found difficult to understand though: "you can use RGB sliders." Is the idea to use RBG sliders to find colours with the same value? Not sure how.
Yes, By using RGB sliders, you can find a colors with a similar value.
I face the same issue but because of one brain cells left inside my mind, whenever I understand it just relax for a week and my brain start kick into the room immediately 😂
Great video :)
What is the name of the music in the background?
I will take notes and improve later. Cant wait to do some cozy study in bed ❤❤
is the voiceover a TTS?? sounds kinda weird
better than no voiceover but it’s a little distracting
ماشاء الله تبارك الله عليك
It feel like Yagami light teaching us color theory
why the ai voice?
Man your content is really insightful. I'm enjoying them as an artist myselft. I'm interested to know how do you generate the voice, Do you use any online service or certain app? Would really help me to create my own content.
I use Elevenlabs.
@@TheFoudoPalace awesome! Thanks for the reply.
This was a very valuable lesson for me. Thank you. I love how you use colours together.
If you may allow me a (hopefully) constructive criticism? I really fancy your choice of music, but in contrast to your voice, it's quite loud and therefore distracting.
Been drawing for whole 10 years and never learned how to shade like you did 😂
You've got some pretty good videos.
If you don't mind me asking how long have you been drawing for?
January 2021
still dont understand but thanks anyways goat
my color theory is shit so I usually follow a template pallete, then I just edit the shit out of it with gradient and tone curve. As long as the value and contrast is good, you can cook up any color.
Great informative video but your editor did you a nasty one with adding music in high volume, I couldn't hear the explanation because the background music was kinda yelling throughout video. If you re-upload this video withouth background music or with a lower one then you'd see better results.
2:18 now's your cha
i sadly feel more clueless than before
Dude this voice has gotta be ai
Can someone let me know what he meant in 1:11 ? does he meant saturated color shouldn't be paired with other saturated color, instead pair them muted color? I don't really get what he meant with color compensation
I like the art over all but there are some serious factual errors and misunderstandings of why certain things work or don’t work. E.g. the large apparent brightness difference between blue and yellow is not because they are on opposite sides of the colour wheel. With a wheel any hue has an opposite but not all opposites have large differences in apparent brightness. E.g. using HSV values an orange with a hue of 30 degrees and an azure with a hue of 210 degrees are 180 degrees apart but have the same apparent brightness. And cyan at 180 degrees hue value has a lesser but quite similar apparent brightness to yellow while being only 60 degrees around the wheel from 240 degree blue. Keep learning but also, nicely done with the paintings!
You are right, thank you for letting me know.
I thought that with balanced you meant "the same amount" so i went for right.
I had an existential crisis.
can you ta;l more about the color balance equation at 0:57
That ain’t yellow & purple that’s yellow and hot pink!!!! 🗣️🚨‼️
Where can we learn more about each of these topics in depth?
Any resources, artists, books, websites for reference?
Is this Vantacrow Bringer?
Im liking the video. I just wanted to comment that your narration sounds like youre very intense and almost angry, which is really funny in contrast to the subject material.
Actually, is this AI voice narrating?
why does your voice lowkey sound like an AI :rofl:
Man this is starting to look more and more like music theory.
Indeed.
Perfect timing. I started studying colors today. thank you for this very helpful video. Does anyone know the title of the song at @3:12 ?
Look at the description
Not me watching this on my phones greyscaled nightime settings
My dude sounds like a TTS.
Can you share some of the sources you used to study these principles. You put it nicely but i wanna go deeper.

You have done a good job with this video and the information you convey is very good, but the volume level of the music ruins the whole video because I can hardly understand what you are saying. Anyway is a great job!
Awesome content, but the music is too loud and distracted me from his voice!
The problem is that you use so many unsaturation colours that makes your drawing pale
You're wrong, if you pick out colors from the pieces and put them by themselves you'll notice the the colors are quite saturated, saturation does not appear as much when you put more then one saturated color around it and blend it out, he is smart with this because by making most of the saturated parts on the edges and focal points of the character or object your eye tends to move around the peice more.
I understood so much yet do little
