✦ He's got maximum pink !

I'm so back on my Kirby brainrot (don't know how clear that last one is, it's just kirbo trying to see under MK's mask)

しかのこのこのここしたんたん can you compare and contrast?

Wanted to draw the official designs with my versions! I noticed I gravitated to softer colors. Sometimes dark because Meta Knight!

Endless Battle

Practicing with shading, and I don't know if it seems good.

MASSIVE collection of all the kirby shitposts I've made over 2 years, and yes I'm proud

stupid headcanon I have for some reason: meta knight's mask are actually his glasses and the reason he runs away is because he doesn't want to fight because he's legally blind without them

✦ Wanted to clean up a doodle just for a tupper bot pfp.... liked the result so It's getting posted !!

[ledgends-of-the-stars]

So. Yall seen my MK! How about my DMK? OvO

Ehehehehheheh

For Lore purposes, I’m hiding his scar! He has it and his hates it! I’ll make a thing that explains why!

So for my DMK, he’s uh…. He’s even worse! Or so Martain believes! See, I got a little Headcanon floating in my head when it comes to the Mirror Reflections of Canon Characters!

I'll show this headcanon when I make an interactive thing for him! Just know that he is Meta with no limits. No filter! He is very bold! And he is super concious about well, everything his Light Reflected Counterpart is!

More on him later!

your rendering is so good how do you do it

Thanks, I love your rendering too!! Gonna try and make a tutorial ^^

To start off, I'm on Clip Studio Paint and these are the brushes I use! First two for rendering characters (round brushes) and the other two for mostly backgrounds (square brushes)

I used to do lineart, but it takes too long >:( now I just make a sketch and sorta clean it up!

Next I fill it in with a gray color. For simpler pieces I just put in the flat colors, but for more paint-y pieces I do grayscale -> color! I'll be doing that here :)

Also, I make 3 clipped layers on top of the gray - two are multiply, and the top one is screen. On the first multiply, I do a soft gradient using an airbrush

On the next multiply layer, I fill everything in with either a cool-ish or warm-ish gray, depending on the mood ^^

I also determine a light source, and use the lasso tool on the screen layer to block out where (I think) the light hits! Tbh I just do wherever feels right lmao, but I recommend having a reference! I like doing it in triangle patterns

Then adjust the opacity of each layer to whatever feels right, and merge everything (I don't merge the sketch/lineart yet, I do it before adding colors in!)

Now... rendering. Some tips I have are color pick (greys) off of the canvas and use them to paint! Clean up the sketch more, erase edges, but I save details (like Galaxia's red gem, his eyes, etc.) for the end, or during coloring.

After I'm sorta happy with it, I merge the sketch layer, then duplicate it, and add a gradient map! I did this sunset-y one but changed the hue to yellow-ish, then lowered the layer's opacity ^^

Play around with the hue-saturation-luminosity setting!

Now go crazy with blending modes! Multiply, overlay, color, glow/color dodge, etc. Feel free to layer them up on top of each other too, and this is to add the character/piece's actual colors in. For example, I used a white-blueish overlay layer for his mask and glove, blue for his cape, blah blah

Now I clean the sketch up/refine it more. Also, to "harmonize" the color palette, you can add a colored gradient on top. Then set it to multiply, and add overlay/glow dodge layers with any colors you see fit! I like using teal and light/warm orange! Here is an example of a colored gradient:

Another tip is to add saturated colors on the edges of both lighting and darker shadows, before blending it:

Also I usually add in a light blue/grey in shadowy areas, and lower the opacity for reflective light:

Also! You can lasso + use an airbush with a light blue to block out parts of the background (his cape here, for example). It helps with more depth!

Finally, I like adding sparkles on low opacity :3 And gaussian blur to certain areas! I'm using radial blur on this piece though ^^

For the background, I like doing blocky shapes!! I use my square brush on 90% ish opacity, to color pick different hues from the piece. For lighting I use a glow dodge layer, here's a mini timelapse as well as the finished art!

At the very end, play around with the hue/saturation and contrast tools to change the colors :)
