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

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!

gradient maps - literally just my thoughts
if you've been on editblr at all you're bound to know em. in this post i aim to share my personal thoughts and critiques on gradient maps, as well as possible ways to utilize them in your works
disclaimer that this post is *not* targeted towards anyone in any way, shape, or form! i'm simply stating my opinion. if this is how you like to edit that's perfectly okay, and you don't have to change that
i'll begin by explaining some issues i personally see with them.
i find that a lot of edits seem to just use the gradient map itself without any other changes. this becomes an issue when people are creating gradient map edits that have very low contrast as it prevents people who are visually impaired from being able to see your edits.
Tumblr media
something as simple as changing the blending mode you use can easily help you use a gradient map much differently. in each blending mode variation i used only *one* layer and simply just changed the mode and level of opacity.
gradient maps can be *very* useful in edits, and using different blending modes with those gradient maps opens up opportunity to more interesting colorings. below i have examples of psd colorings ive made all using gradient maps in different ways
Tumblr media
while it is undoubtedly true that not every editor uses photoshop or photopea or a program that has the kind of adjustment layers those programs use, most do have gradient maps. so it makes sense why a lot of editors would rely a lot on them.
some of the blending modes i personally find the most useful (and used myself in the above colorings) would be: divide, soft light, multiply, luminosity, and color.
Tumblr media
with divide you have to make some... kind of ugly gradient maps. but when you switch the blending mode to divide and set down the opacity a bit it turns out looking really nice! with divide its important to note that your gradient map will be using the *inverted* colors of the color scheme you're going for. that is why the gradient maps will look strange
Tumblr media
soft light is much more subtle in the way it colors your image, therefor the gradient map you use may want to be very dramatic in the colors it uses. the soft change in color is perfect for when you want a more subtle change to more closely bring the different colors of the edit together. if you want a more dramatic light, its sibling hard light can do that job for you.
Tumblr media
i find multiply works better with darker colorings, i usually lower the opacity while using it as well. i tend to use a broader range of dark to light colors in the gradient map i'm using with multiply
Tumblr media
luminosity can either have a very dramatic, or very subtle effect depending on the colors you use. i encourage you to play with this mode a lot! it can create some interesting effects that i don't really know how to describe
Tumblr media
color does as it says it does! it changes the colors of the image to the colors on the layer. it doesn't change the saturation of the colors, however. it's essentially like if you hue-shifted them. you can use this to create very drastic changes in color, or to establish what colors you primarily want to be in your coloring
i don't really have much else to say other than to have fun with it! i just pointed out different ways to use gradient maps as a tool for your editing, if you decide to follow my advice or not is totally up to you. if you have any questions or comments feel free to shoot me an ask or throw it in the reblogs and i'll answer to the best of my ability. happy editing!

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.]

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!
Tumblr media
so its really another case of classic complimentary colours/colour theory. other tips are sharing colours, even if its not your first instinct.
Tumblr media
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
Tumblr media
but is different for other characters ive drawn!
Tumblr media
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

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.
