kravitz jr prefers my desk chair to any of his cat beds

ID: An illustration of OP dressed in pajamas, and sharing an office chair with a large black cat. The cat is taking up the majority of the seat, while OP is forced to sit on the edge while thinking, "my butt hurts so much." End ID.

They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.

Do you have any tips on how to color the light underside of a dark skinned person's palm? How much lighter should it be, and should it be pale or have a redder tint like blush? I'm white and I worry I've been doing it incorrectly.

OH   B O I  ~

Eesh, coloring darkskin palms is one of those things i’m good at doing but not so good at explaining, so i’ll try my best on this one

Okay so starting off

The palm of a dark skin person’s hand is simply just a reflection of their undertone

Everyone has an undertone and black people are no different. A dark skin person’s palm is a part of their hand that has little to no melanin. Without all of that melanin the only thing that’s left is their undertone

Black people with an orange undertone tend to have orange looking palms

Black people with a neutral undertone tend to have a mixture of pinkish orange-ish looking palms

And black people with red undertones tend to have pink looking palms

So how exactly do you determine the palm color and undertone of a darkskin black person?

ight so  B  O O M,

When it comes to a black person with a neutral skin tone rather than raising the color up in the Spectrum simply just lighten the skin

Skin tone can be complicated so I made a few examples:

Make sure when coloring black palms to always add a gradient

(( Many artists have done this and I too am guilty of it so dont sweat it ))

♡Hope these tips help you out♡

I created a quick walkthrough on my process! You can do the same with any digital art program and brushes you like. As always, learning comes with critical thinking and if you feel this does not apply to you, then no worries! There’s no correct way to do things as long as you achieve the results you want. 

The technique can be customized with different brush types and colours, and can be as simple or heavily rendered as you so desire. I hope it helps a little! I like to do lighting like this in my own work for a sense of atmosphere.

Please ignore the fact I spelled complementary wrong, it’s been a long week ok lol

being a self-taught artist with no formal training is having done art seriously since you were a young teenager and only finding out that you’re supposed to do warm up sketches every time you’re about to work on serious art when you’re fuckin twenty-five
