magnus archives themed gradient map set for clip studio paint there are fifteen gradients in this set, one for each fear :] i couldn't name them after the actual fears because csp advises against even using fanart at all for asset store thumbnails/example images, but i tried to make the names as obvious as i could!

my other stuff

I woke up yesterday at 4 am to work on him then came back home after a lecture and worked on him again 😭 I’m happy with how he turned out I think

So I gradient mapped the girl because I'm avoiding getting ready for school tomorrow 🙅🙅

(the girl is feralnette from @bigfatbreak )

My favourite is probably the first, sixth and the last one 🙏🙏

hello! what program do you use to put gradient maps over png gifs?

Hello, I use Photopea entirely to edit. You can do this either by right clicking on whatever layer / folder and selecting Blending Options > Gradient overlay. Or, more simply, to apply to all layers beneath it, select gradient map from the little menu that comes up upon clicking the half-filled circle at the bottom right.

There's also this site you could use? Hope this helps you out!

Portrait of my boyfriend from an exercise I did today. Fighting my perfectionism by setting a 20 minute timer and doing a rough and dirty portrait with grayscale values (then using a gradient map for fun) (okay to rb)

[Image ID: a digital art portrait of a young man laying on his back, head turned halfway toward the camera. You see him from the chest up. He has strong features, shoulder length curly dark hair, and a short beard. His expression is calm and watchful. The background is simple leaf shapes, with some leaves in front of him, like you're looking at him through a heavily wooded area. The portrait is entirely in shades of green.]

Gradient maps are kinda fun

Someone’s probably asked already but would you be willing to share your art process from sketch to render/colour? Your art is always so pretty and colourful and I’d love to know how you do it

hi anon! i've talked about it a while ago but my process has changed a bit my latest work has had considerably limited palettes just bc star wars is very monotone! (black to grey to white, with some exceptions) this can seem irritating, especially if you like colour. but i just dial up the blues and greens so they still read as cold (artificial space light) or throw some purple in if i want warmth (proximity to luke, in sunlight etc) with din and luke skin/hair, i pick colours that are somewhat desaturated because the dark blues in the rest of the scene will punch them up and make them vibrant!

so its really another case of classic complimentary colours/colour theory. other tips are sharing colours, even if its not your first instinct.

so luke and grogu have this colour in common, which makes things cohesive and, bc they r the only two figures "out of uniform" (aka not grey/black/etc) they don't stand out entirely so when I'm drawing the same environments and characters, i build a colour vocabulary around them! which is this

but is different for other characters ive drawn!

you can also try gradient maps as i think they create cohesion similarly! its also worth noting that apart from lines, i draw all on one layer. so all my colours, i pick myself instead of using layer types like multiply etc. i have no issue with layer types, i just get better results using my own eye! it also means i can blend etc more naturally

Some value and color studies for a future piece, featuring Ibexinious

Also if anyone wants a link to the gradient maps used I’ll happily provide

Sketched this yesterday in anticipation of new D. Gray Man chapter coming out today. (As of posting this don't know if it's come out yet because haven't checked/read)

I should do work like this more often, faster sketches that get to the point and overall composition across where don't get crippled by perfectionism over every single detail and discouraged before moving to next step (like, does lineart REALLY need to be 1000% percent perfect with all the little details before starting to plan out lighting???). Been starting to try something similar in 3D (coloring/adding shaders to sculpts while still working on them to get me more excited over process) and it really seems to work so want to implement that mindset into 2D also to get me more motivated which in term lets me make more & better art faster.

(If you click the "keep reading" you get to see the process timelapse)

Here's a Procreate timelapse because why not? I really enjoy watching people's process & suspect other do too.
