Here’s a little insight on my coloring methods on Planeta Blu. ・・・ “One aspect of this project I especially love is the opportunities to play with color to influence emotional reactions from the viewer. When I begin coloring I lay out flat colors very loosely so I can get a sense of how I want the entire page to look. During this stage I'll add colors in different areas of the composition to make the reader's eye move about the page. With this example page, the group has just woken up from a terrifying night. It's a moment of peace during a hectic journey, which is a perfect moment to use color to signify an emotional transition. I used the warm oranges and yellows to portray the tranquility of the sunrise, at the same time reserving some memory of the previous pages with lighter muted versions of the purples and reds. When I return to this page I'll clean up all of the color areas to align with the drawing plus add some highlights and shadows as well as some lighting effects to mimic the sun rays. Once the color is done I'll finish the lettering and make sure all of the word balloons have tails pointing to their correct characters.” @mike.lariccia Illistrator/colorist/letterer for #planetablu #planetabluriseofagoo #graphicnovelart #graphicnovels #workinprogress #february2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CH8PZvBj2BQ/?igshid=1ms30qijgajjl
