Lately, I’ve been thinking about Leon, Ada, and Claire. Especially on their relationships because I think they’re pretty interrelating so here’s another analysis made by yours truly <3

TW: mentions of mental illnesses, MY OPINION! + observations. This is strictly based on my knowledge. I’m majoring in English- doesn’t mean I’m 100% correct, it just means I’m pointing out some things that I thought were pretty cool. Take this with a grain of salt.

So I actually propose that we bring the color theory into play, mainly between Leon, Claire, and Ada.

In RE2R and in Infinite Darkness (death island too but I’ve yet to watch it), Leon is portrayed as blue. (His RPD uniform and his suit/jacket) back in my English class (film vs book) we talked about the different types of people and how the author/creator purposefully assigns a character a specific color.

By majority belief, the color blue represents sadness and often times calmness as well. However, I have a different view on why CAPCOM seems to love Leon in winter colors (blue/green/purple)

Leon is the definition of the Blue Character Theory- these types of characters are compassionate, loyal, confident, and can manage their emotions (keep it cool in other words) but sometimes these characters are prone to become over emotional (depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, etc.) and I actually wrote a small paragraph on Leon in infinite darkness about this because I found it so interesting that Leon- a cool and reserved guy, has these complicated emotions welled up inside him and one of the only ways we can tell is by the color of his representation. (Think of Euphoria and how colors really affected the way the characters act, especially Maddy and Cassie and how different they are.)

I’m also going to be hella bold and say that his eyes are a CLEAR representation on his character by color analysis. His eyes are blue, not only because he’s a white man- but because the “eyes are the windows to the soul” thing really does help us understand him better. They clearly did this on purpose to let the viewer catch a glimpse at Leon’s raw personality. His eyes are very expressive if you really REALLY analyze them.

And when you bring someone who is represented by the color red (Claire and Ada) there’s already an established connection between the two. Although Claire and Ada are way too different in personalities, I like to believe that they both have at least the same level of ambition, stubbornness and leadership. Red characters are known to lead or take matters into their own hands when the world is against them. If no one is going to help them then they’ll do it themselves.

In ID, Claire did her own investigation. She took charge and decided to that if no one would help her, including Leon, then she’ll just do whatever she can with the power she has. Ada is similar in that aspect. Ada has a way of getting things done her way, just like Claire. She uses the art of manipulation to make sure her plans are fulfilled, even if it means at the cost of others. She’s ambitious and goal-driven, much like Claire.

CAPCOM represents the two women in explicitly red or at least with red items (hair, dress, shoes, etc.) it makes me believe that they know what they’re doing when it comes to giving characters their own individuality.

Now, we know that blue and red are complementary colors based on the color wheel.

But we also know that Leon and Ada don’t really have a healthy relationship (I’ll get to this in another post near the future once I’ve got evidence) which is contrasting to Leon and Claire’s relationship. Which prompted the question: Why?

I mean, yeah Claire is Chris’s sister and by affiliation Leon enjoys her company. But it is also clear that the two of them worked very well back in RE2R (the fence scene) their chemistry and tension was high but when he’s with Ada, it seems different.

It is no doubt that Leon had/has (? I’m just as confused as bro tbh) a crush on Ada. I read somewhere from the notes on Leon that he was actually glad to have seen Ada in RE4R (not too sure for RE4OG since almost everything is about the remake)

CAPCOM purposefully follows the Red Oni/Blue Oni trope (a Japanese folk tale, shout-out to my professor for putting me on that) but what why are there two red ones and one blue one? Is CAPCOM keeping their choices open for Leon’s potential love life? I can’t say for sure what’ll happen or what everything means because this is something I over analyzed.

Remember, I’m only an English major student, I still believe my observations are pretty vague or at least a little bit underdeveloped. Hopefully sometime near the future I can make better analysis 🙏🏼

Also, tysm for all the amazing comments and reblogs 🥹🙏🏼 idk how to reply to reblogs but I really do appreciate the fact that you guys like my fics. I promise I have more to write (I have a list in my notes app lmao)

Seasonal Color Analysis: Gillian Anderson (UPDATE)

My first analysis of Gillian was close, but flawed.

I mistook her Medium Chroma for High Chroma, which shifted her results (wrongly) from Light Summer to Bright Winter. Both seasons share a Cool Hue; however, Bright Winter’s luminosity is derived from its primary High Chroma, while Light Summer’s is pinched from its High/Light Value. 

I have ELLA RAY STYLE's and Christine Scaman's YouTube videos to thank for eloquently explaining the differences. Highly recommend their channels: Ella breaks down color analysis based on the science of color, and Christine analyzes hair color and skin tone based on her expertise (and has a video on Gillian, as a matter of fact.) Ella is more updated than Christine, in my opinion; but I’m listing both, just the same~. 

THE DIFFERENCES

I’ve already discussed the difference between Chroma and Value (and Hue) here; but I’ll include a quick summary for this dissection’s sake. 

Hue is the color of one’s skin tone: is it primarily warm or cool-- yellow or blue in undertone? Or neutral; and what kind?  

Value is the lightness or darkness of one’s Hue. (Any skin color can have a light or dark value to it, post here.) Higher Values usually have lighter or more "translucent" hair, allowing light to pass through it, as well as finer or sparser brows. (High Value tones look great in lighter colors such as cool pure white, warm ivory white, and other lighter colors. Deep colors near the face tend to drag down and dominant the "presence" of the outfit, making it appear as if the clothes were wearing the person rather than the other way around.) Lower Values usually have darker or more "opaque" hair when in direct lighting, as well as darker or bushier brows. (Low Value tones look great in darker colors such as navy blue, pure black and deep brown. Light colors near the face give them an exaggerated pale, tired appearance.) Medium Values are underserved in both very High Value (light) and very Low Value (dark) outfits; and look best in "medium" colors such as grays, lighter browns, and camel colors.

Since Medium Value is neither strongly High nor strongly Low Value, it will naturally place itself in third position in the primary/secondary hierarchy that determines one’s Seasonal Color Analysis (no matter what the Hue or Chroma ratios are.)

Chroma is the measure of how bright and clear or muted and soft a color is. High Chromas have a brighter, clearer appearance-- with very little brown or gray pigmentation in their skin tone-- and a "dewy" or bright skin texture. Their darker brows usually have a deeper coloration; and their irises are usually "richer" and clearer with defined "edges" next to the whites of the eyes. (Supposedly, this gives Higher Chromas an "alert and eye-catching expression.”) Low Chromas have a desaturated or muted appearance-- with a prominent gray or "ashy" pigmentation-- and a "matte" or softer skin texture. Their finer brows usually have a "sparser" appearance; and their irises have a softer, blurred "edge" next to the whites of the eyes. (Supposedly, this gives Lower Chromas a "softer gaze" and more "delicate charm.") Medium Chroma is midway between the two: not too “rich” or striking, but not too blurred or softened. 

Since Medium Chroma is neither strongly High nor strongly Low Chroma, it will naturally place itself in third position in the primary/secondary hierarchy that determines one’s Seasonal Color Analysis (no matter what the Hue or Value ratios are.) 

Now, what does this have to do with one Gillian Anderson? 

MY MISTAKE

I mistook Gillian’s High Value for High Chroma. 

In my original post, I covered that Gillian had a High Value and Cool Hue-- meaning, she does best with lighter, less dark cool tones. But I mistakenly bled her High Value (the “light” quality of her skin) with that of High Chroma (the bright or “clear” quality of her skin), skewing her results in the Winter, not Summer, direction.  To be fair to myself, I was unaware that Medium Chroma existed; but, now that I do, here we are. 

Black and white photos are an incredible hack for testing the skin's Values. Photos that have sharply defined contrasts between the white and black spaces are more likely to be Low Value; photos with very little differentiation between the different shades are more likely to be High Value; and photos with some black, some gray, some white spaces are more likely to be Medium Value. In the example above, GA's eyebrows aren't washed out, her iris aren't popping out in extremis compared to the whites of her eyes, her hair isn't too light or starkly black compared to her skin, and her skin isn't stark compared to the shadows surrounding it. Hence, she's Medium Value (just like David Duchovny.)

TESTING AGAINST MY ORIGINAL HYPOTHESIS

Bright/Clear Winter has primarily High Chroma, secondarily Cool Hue; while Light Summer has primarily Light/High Value, secondarily Cool Hue-- meaning, I faultily assumed the “lightness” in Gillian’s skin was due to a very clear, very bright chroma rather than a lack of darkened mixture in Value.

How do we test the difference?

Broadly, Summer and Winter are Cool seasons differentiated by their saturation: Summer takes Winter's palettes and mixes it with gray, appearing more muted or "desaturated" compared to its twin.

So: does a "grayed down" palette suit Gillian?

To illustrate, I edited a photo of her (in as close to natural lighting as possible) with her skin tone hues swatched next to her left.  

As you can see, there is a lightness and coolness to each hue; but they lack a sharpness and a dynamic punch. In effect, they've been muted. Softened. "Grayed" from an original, "pure" intensity.

(The above photo, by the way, is also a perfect example of a Light Value outfit: harmonious in light tones-- nothing darker or brighter or lighter or differently accented than any another element.) 

When overlaying this same photo with Bright Winter swatches (left), it’s easy to see how overpowering that Season’s brightness and clarity is-- especially in comparison to Light Summer’s swatches (right.) 

And, again: 

Gillian is overpowered by Bright Winter. While its strong, sharp clarity gives this palette the ability to play around with darkness-- allowing Bright Winter the leeway to be able to pull off deep, cool black and navy-- its depth is too deep for GA to follow without “shadowing” her undereyes and prominent facial features. 

Light Summer, by contrast, perfectly complements the lightness (and lack of depth) in GA’s skin tone, removing the dark shadows under her eyes and giving her cheeks a luminous flush. 

CONCLUSION

I’m going to go back to all the old fashion posts and update the information there (with pictures); so, expect the timeline to be flooded with reposts as I announce the edited versions. 

Thanks for reading~

Enjoy!

COLOR ANALYSIS OF NCT MEMBERS

I am going to preface this by saying that I am not a professional color analyst, but I have been learning quite a bit about how to look for a color that looks the best. This is all for entertainment, but if you disagree, I will literally cry.

- I use the 12-Season system, but I do wish I can use the 16 seasons. I just don't have any resources on them. How I choose a season is pretty similar with Carol Brailey on Tiktok/Youtube, and as such, no NCT member is a light season. Shockingly, there are no soft seasons here as well.

There are certain members (Ten, Yangyang, Jisung, and Chenle who have undergone color analysis themselves, and I will write if I agree or disagree.)

I haven't done NCT Wish yet as I am not familiar with them. In time, I might, but they are quite young and I am not comfortable getting to know them yet.

Let's start with NCT 127:

Suh Johnny: True Summer

(You see, this is what I like about Johnny; he knows the colors he looks good in. Aside from the occasional black and white, it's all summer colors)

- Johnny, despite having tanned skin, is fully cool-toned. His best colors are the pinks and the greens. He doesn't suit Light Summer, but he can borrow the more saturated colors of Soft Summer. True Winter colors are overwhelming. Since he's cool-toned, warm colors do not suit him well.

Lee Taeyong: Deep Winter

(You would think I would have loads of pictures of Taeyong in Deep Winter clothing but no. He's always wearing Bright Winter clothing. I had to edit the first two💀)

- I have seen him get categorized as a Soft Autumn, and have seen him push his brand in Bright Winter, but ultimately, he looks the best in the dark colors of the Deep Winter palette. His best colors are the greens and the violets. He can borrow from the True Winter palette, but he will not look good with borrowing Deep Autumn colors.

Nakamoto Yuta: Bright Winter

(Yuta totally knows that he looks best with bright colors. I literally just have to scroll down his Instagram feed for this.)

- NCT is mostly cool-toned. The NCT brand itself is a cool-toned based brand made from bright reds and neon greens. Yuta is one of two Bright Winters in NCT. He looks best with the reds and cyans. He can pull of many True Winter colors, but he ultimately looks best with the brightness of Bright Winter.

Kim Doyoung: True Winter

(Doyoung has truly mastered the art of "I look good in black, so I wear only black" which I love because he does look good in black.)

- The only True Winter in 127. Doyoung looks best in the blues and greens of the palette. He can successfully pull off Bright Winter colors as well, but he blends best with the less saturated colors of True Winter.

Jung Jaehyun: True Autumn

(Jaehyun wears a lot of muted browns—many of which are quite warm in their undertone. I think Jaehyun knows he looks good in brown. Also, perfume is the only stage where he truly shines in his stage outfits lmao.)

- Controversially, he is a warm-toned man forced to wear True Winter clothes. He looks best with the browns and greens. He does not look good with any other subseason of autumn but he is able to pull of multiple colors of True Spring.

Kim Jungwoo: True Spring

(The only time Jungwoo wears his flattering colors is during photoshoots istg. His Instagram feed is monochromatic af😭)

- A fitting palette for an entertaining man, Jungwoo looks best in the oranges and greens. He is not able to pull off any subseason of spring eloquently, nor is he able to wear any autumn colors with great luck.

Lee Mark: True Summer

(This man loves navy blue which is good for him because he looks good in it.)

- This man often wears True/Bright Winter blues which is not totally off. He is truly cool-toned. He looks best with the blues and greens of the summer palette though. Due to his high contrast features, he is able to pull off a few of the True Winter colors, but not black. He does not look good with any of the other subseasons of summer.

Lee Donghyuck: Deep Autumn

(He needs to stop with the black clothes. Haechan please invest in some good quality camo green I am BEGGING😭🙏)

- A Deep Autumn that can pull of Deep Winter colors better than True Autumn colors, Haechan is a warm-toned man that looks best with the purples and greens of the palette. Thankfully, he sports many muted browns in his wardrobe, all of which, suit him quite well. He does not look his best with black, but it's not truly off.

status -> closed for @hairpintvrns (terry) location -> terry's residence

Theodora has to do a quick, impromptu color analysis on Terry — it’s not something she’s had to think about before, so she spends some time at the makeup store, frowning down at pictures of her friend, trying to decide their season. At first glance, Theo wants to say they’re a cool winter, though perhaps she’s being a little bit hasty. She thinks maybe a bright winter color palette might suit her best, in the end, and picks out some nail polishes in shades of silver, mint, and navy. She’ll have to decide when she’s over which one might look best.

Forest Lake is a charming neighborhood — very spacious, she thinks, which makes it a little obvious to Theo why Terry may have chosen this place to settle down. Well, that, and she’s sure Terry has had some fabulous luck with their birds out here. Theo’s never understood the appeal of birds the same way Terry has, but then again, not very many people tend to understand her relationship with horses — at least, not in a friendly manner — so she’s happy to support Terry with their hobby, even if she doesn’t quite understand it.

She reaches the cabin with the red door eventually, and knocks delicately against the wood three times. The paper bag in her other hand houses the nail polishes she definitely overdid, but it’s rare Terry ever indulges Theo in these things. Though she did have to give up the subject of Cassie, which — thinking about it now, she’s not sure is such a fair exchange, but she was being truthful when she told Terry she’s trying to meddle less in people’s lives. She just gets so caught up in trying to fix everything for everyone, she forgets that sometimes it’s not her place to do so. Another symptom, she’s recently discovered, of being raised by a narcissistic mother.

She knocks three times again, wondering if Terry had heard her the first time. Maybe they’re asleep? Theo debates phoning her, but doesn’t have a chance to make a decision before the door is opening. Terry smiles widely at the sight of her old friend — someone she loves and holds near and dear to her heart, after having been a motherly figure in a childhood that lacked her own. “Hi!” she greets happily. She doesn’t want to give Terry a hug without them asking first, so she keeps her distance. “Did I get taller, or did you get shorter?” she teases instead.

i went to get a color analysis done by the R Dresser team while I was in Tokyo and i was so surprised to have my consultant declare that i'm a Deep Autumn type???

but she did go on to say that my coloring is actually very neutral so i can do cool and warm colors pretty well so i have lots of options! she just went for Deep Autumn as my primary type as my natural hair and eye color lean a bit warmer than they are cooler. my second best color type would be Deep Winter (which means i can wear black and white!!) which ig makes my main consideration when it comes to picking colors would be the depth, and the warmth/coolness would be secondary

[taylortruther]

"color analysis is such a scam" bestie this is so true every time i come across those videos on ig i go out of my way to block those ppl because the bs they're spewing is just...insane

(and dont even get me started on the "season" thing, like this celeb looks ugly here bc they're a summer but they dress like a winter like pls stop)

it's also just sooo subjective? and different parts of your body can have different tones or undertones! and the virtual color analyses on celebrities or normal people are sooo sunny because photos can be filtered and edited, cameras calibrate lighting while filming, etc.

like i just saw one color analyzer say "oops, i called emma stone warm toned and someone else said cool toned, comment and tell me what you think?" - amazing how this is just turned into engagement. and someone else asked if using their vein color can tell them their undertone, and the analyzer said "no! that's a myth!! dm me!"... no further proof or explanation. convenient that the free option doesn't work anymore and the only way to find out is to pay for a $200 consultation. like. just. ay yi yi.

[anytimebitchess]

pedri 🤣

Hæ friend!!

Of course you want Pedri, who else would you want? *eye roll* (jk, I love Pedri 🥰)

After a 2hr analysis, I think I’ve come to a conclusion💡

First to look at Pedri we have to figure out if he looks better in gold or silver, but because I haven’t found any pictures of him with jewelry this task was a bit more difficult. I knew straight away that Pedri has dark features (hair + eyes), so went straight in to figure out if he is a cool tone or a warm tone of dark.

Dark + Cool

Here we have Pedri wearing colors which are associated with the Winter palette, darker and grayer shades. By looking at him in grayer and more colder tones, they wash him out a bit and make him look paler and more tired than he is and take away his brightness. He is so washed out, I don’t recognize him.

Bright + Cool

Here he is wearing shades from the Summer palette. We can see that the more cooler Summer shades over-power him and make the outfit stand out before him and hide him. The colors look overwhelming on him.

We can see that the cooler undertones contrast with his warmer undertones and make him pailer, hide or wash him out (he still looks good though).

Dark + Warm

There is a reason why Pedri can ✨slay✨ the Barça kit. When wearing warmer undertones, his features come out and brighten-up his face and we can see Pedri in his beautiful glory 🤩

Conclusion💡

I think darker and warmer shades fit him the best, thus I have the conclusion that Pedri is a Dark/Deep Autumn.

Other Deep/Dark Autumn celebrities: Johnny Deep, Ryan Reynolds, Robert Downey Jr., Andrew Garfield, Kanye West, Jason Mamoa, Angela Basette, Penelope Cruz, Javier Bradem, Beyoncé, Zendaya

Hope this was fun! 😇 and share your thoughts or opinion if you have one (or few)!

*Disclaimer: I’m just learning and I thought that this was a good way of expanding my knowledge and test what I’ve learned.

One More Free Character Ramble Ask here for you! Free for you to spend whenever you feel like it hehe

much love !

-💚

Well hello hello darling, i'll use my special card to make a new design analysis for one of my OL oc :

Darcie Second 🍁

Starting off with basic needed infos : Darcie was build around Valentin as a sort of opposite yet similar character. Their duality is shown in their personality, color palette and evolution. Therefore if you haven't read my Valentin design explanation i advise you to read it first here before continuing with this one.

Darcie’s name was chosen for it’s meaning « dark haired » « from the dark ». Darcie is someone who lives in the shadow of other people, rarely looked upon you can almost forget she's here. Her name is also a reference to Mr. Darcy from pride and pejudice, who despise seeming rude is actually a shy character of heart who find it hard to converse with others.

Cerise is summer, Valentin is winter but Darcie is... The changing of seasons. Starting with winter palette, turning into fall and then spring ( their step 4 will surely be themed around summer but i can't confirm it surely until the game is out )

Another commom but slightly changed theme is fruits : Darcie is a vegetable, more precisely Onions ( sweet onions and red onions ), she has a lot of layers.

Darcie is Valentin's twin but is identifiable by some specific details: her tooth gap and multiple moles that she has way more than her sibling. Those are details that make her special but that she feels self-conscious about. Do you find it cute? She'll think you're making fun of her because in her eyes it's not.

Another subtle facial difference is her blue eyes. Where Valentin stands out with their heterochromia, Darcie's eyes look quite simple, another negative detail that goes on the list that differentiates the twins.

Step 1

At some point in childhood, the twins decide to have a very distinct way to tell them apart and it’s by a haircut. Darcie chose to have her hair short because her sibling convinced her she would look really cool like that.

She’s from a snowy region, her palette is cold but tinted with some warm because of the color purple. Purple is Darcie’s favorite color, wearing it and having a trinket of that color makes her a bit happy. The color is also similar to the blue pastel of Valentin, making them different yet very close. Their outfit composition I also very similar with the big sweater and white bottom

Passionate about scientific books and animals, the young girl owns a cat-shaped hat to keep her head warm since her hair is short, and also a little bag, to put trinkets in it.

Step 2

Darcie is not a confident person so she tries to look like people who are, for example, her sibling. Her step 2 design is close to Valentin’s step 1 design, mainly the pigtails and new piercings. Sadly you can catch her lack of confidence with that choice: Valentin wears high pigtails that stand out, and Darcie’s pigtails are downs.

Her color palette warms up drastically, and she has taken her marks in Golden Grove. She kept some touch of purple but overall she bland perfectly in the warm trees of the town, she’s practically invisible. The only trace of winter color is her blue shorts, but even those are almost unnoticeable when you look at them.

Her cat hat got swapped for a necklace because it was judged too childish, and her old blue bag got traded for a new brown one, surely broken with time.

Step 2 Darcie is content with being part of the decor, but deep down she wants to be her own person and be more like what her siblings used to be.

Step 3

Step 3 is the more confident Darcie has ever been about herself. Angsty teen years pass and she grew to love herself with the support of her family and friend which resulted in a newfound physical appearance.

She dyed her hair lighter, putting a definitive separation between her and her sibling and marking her individuality. The warm color approaches the purple she likes so much and she wears more girly, pretty, and croquettes clothes borrowed from her sibling.

She got a new set of piercing and bought little cat shaped one because simply, she liked them.

Darcie has a more bright palette to contrast with her sibling and both of them form a sort of duo of little swans ( black and white ) or ugly ducklings who grew to love themselves before all.

I don't know yet how I will approach her story, this will depend on the main storyline of will approach, but I am really happy to develop her more! Thanks you for readings love!

Hi Caro! Do you have any tips to distinguish the different types of spring (seasonal colour analysis) in practice?

method: look for the person's strong suit.

bright spring (like IU) - muted tones suit them less. can always handle the most color pops with lots of shining warmth.

light spring (like Felix) - overwhelmed by any contrast. the best in understated rosy floral or neutral tones.

warm spring (like Jungwoo) - least flattered by cool tones. look their best in fresh, saturated golden/honey-like shades.

hair color is a good indicator especially. extremes can help you distinguish here — brights can do neon, light seasons handle bleached hair a lot, and warm wears reds, honey blonde, and even orange like a pro.

also remember the closeness of sister seasons (180° apart below, soft and soft, cool and cool...):

bright spring can mistype as (bright) winter. however, they're not as cool-toned nor the #1 masters of black/white combos.

light spring can be mistaken for (light) summer. still, they are gently warm-toned, and suit less muted clothes.

warm spring could be confused as (warm) autumn. in actuality, they need less contrast and depth to shine.
