[choccyshrooms]

A guide on my process for colouring like in the Arcana which I developed through studying the style.

Now, this is just for sprites or for neutral lighting. In the case of most memories/CGs, you have more interesting colours to use, but the process is identical. There are just extra steps.

Using my favourite memories for each character as examples (hopefully, you can tell which ones) you can see this process. All of this happens on layers above the base drawing.

Usually, you set a colour-filled layer to the setting “multiply” over the entire drawing, then using a “screen”, “add���, or “hard light” layer, you add the lighting. Depending on the intensity of the lighting, the outline will be coloured to be lighter.

The shading colour rarely changes, aside from slight hue changes.

Misc advice/tips/tricks below. I may update it depending on if I get further questions.

I recently had a weird dream and oddly Buttons was in it and got the main attention, is that new for your characters to be in someone's dream???

Nah, some people told me he showed up in their dreams. It makes sense, I just had a dream yesterday where @s0ularch's Bobby was my roommate. (Buttons wasn't there, unfortunately.)

Might as well do an introduction post

Hello! Im Buttons, and if it isn’t already obvious I’m very hyperfixated on the Arcana! And thats naturally what most of this blog will consist of. Although I do also love Good Omens, DnD, Big Top Burger, and anything and everything about dogs!

You’re gonna see a lot of my MCs on here, primarily Tempest and Griffith, but I have a Nadia MC names Hollis that will show up occasionally! Here’s the info on them for context in any comics or animations I may do

Summary:

Being one of Vesuvia’s newest residents, this reclusive mage has little known about them, and they aren’t too keen on changing that fact.

They hail originally from the Scourgelands, being Count Lucio’s first cousin and being particularly close to him growing up, as well as baring a striking resemblance. However, they don’t initially know what happened to him following the events of killing his father and do not connect the dots that he is The Count until the masquerade arc. They are also fairly unaware of most of the goings on that have happened in Vesuvia the past 5 years, and have just settled down after 20 years of being nomadic.

Summary:

Tall, dark, and brooding would best describe Griffith. He’s a stern guard with a fierce loyalty to those he loves and cares for, perhaps to a fault. At the begging of the games events he’s uncharacteristically out for blood, Julians to be exact.

Griffith was originally a scrappy orphan, having close to nothing to his name growing up and having to work hard labor jobs starting in his teen years. When Lucio targeted his town and killed their mayor, Griffith saw an opportunity to swear undying loyalty to Lucio, evidently joining his army and climbing the ranks at impeccable speed. During the same battle that claimed Lucio’s arm, Griffith was stabbed in the gut and nearly bled out. He crawled into some underbrush to die in peace, away from the battle, but was attacked by a lurking vampire who had been feeding off the bloodied corpses left on the battlefield, henceforth being turned into a vampire against his will. After Lucio’s death he swore absolute loyalty to Nadia, becoming one of the royal guards leading captains while struggling to keep his vampiric status a secret. He holds his blood lust at bay with a diet mainly consisting of raw meat, locking himself away in his chambers when in occasional fits of rage. He has a particular hatted for Julian, being under the impression he was the murderer. He’s tasted Julians blood once and is more than keen on doing so again until Lucio inevitably reveals to him the actual circumstances surrounding his death.

Summary:

Hollis found his love for cooking at a young age, learning from his father, a renowned chef for the royal family of his home country Venterre. He left home at 20 after years of training in culinary alongside his father, craving to make a name for himself. He worked his way up from a palace servant under Lucio to a Chef under Nadia over 20 years, growing extremely fond of the countess over the years he’s worked for her. He runs a tight ship- or kitchen, rather. Being quite rough around the edges and gruff, occasionally making him unpleasant to work with. He’s your run of the mill workaholic, and borderline alcoholic to deal with the stressful work load. He notably helped smuggle Julian out of the palace dungeons after he was arrested for killing Count Lucio, making him a loyal friend to Portia

I love interacting with and getting to know new people and I absolutely love hearing about other peoples MCs, my DMs are always open! I also do love a good RP now and again(semi-lit but flexible) so don’t be afraid to reach out for that as well!

You read this whole thing? Damn, you’re the bomb. As a bonus here Griffith and Tempest’s voice claims
