How do you pick your colors? Your art style is so cohesive and i love the palettes you use!!
thank you! im a very intuitive artist, i think i draw frequently enough to know my preferences pretty well lol, but recently I’ve been enjoying working with somehow complementary colors?
like these don't look that similar but i did use the same 4 colors or so! i like to complement yellow/orange (skin) with teal (most of the clothes lol), I think they make each other pop rlly well
i also keep my palettes very minimal, i used the same blue hues for bokuto's hair, outfit, and the pigeons, too! same with deku’s outfits and hair, it’s the same color in different hues :)
i keep my palettes very minimal in general, i think its easier to create a somehow cohesive/harmonious palette and illustrations if you limit yourself :) as you can see, the colors I predominantly use are all hues of green and yellow, I let the overlay balance it all out and make it look less harsh I guess
also i don’t limit myself to fixed color palettes, i just use the same base color and overlay layer for most illustrations, I think those bring everything together even if I dont really know what I’m doing, i hope this helpssss

“A PLAYLIST IN FULL COLOR”
---
So uh... my old color palettes started blowing up out of nowhere and it made me wanna make a new batch and ‘remix’ some of the older ones. The fun part about this one is that all of the palettes are named after (and sorta based on) songs I’ve listened to or added to playlists!
As always, these are free to use and people are free to send these with a character for me to draw!

One guy. Er, I mean two, no, no! Four, four completely different guys, no correlation between them, no sir!
Started this around same time as this KID one. It should be same style proportion-wise. As I was messing around for fun/on purpose of finding something that more cartoony? simpler in flow?
Anyways, the design/style notes/thoughts under the cut, I did put lots of my exhausted braincells into Kaito/KID difference
Overall style inspos:
1) "I need to think of Sonic but like more human-y"
2) Miho Shimogasa (PPGZ/Kaito Joker/BatuSpi Toppa Bashin)
3) PSWG and SPvsW lol kinda, just from my head how I remembered em though
>Cone and Shin: Originally wasn't planning on putting shadows in his eyes, but without em he's straight up "People with blue eyes" meme. Creepy too much.
Neat and sharp a bit.
Cone is a pain to size correctly. I think I kinda got it right? But maybe he should had been just tad taller? You never know if he's like 95cm or 1m and something
Side note, but Cone's shoes really make me think of Sonic's-
>Shin and Kaito: Neat and bit sharp vs more laid back and messy. Also more puffy/round on corners? I basically want him to have puffy sleeves/sleeves that got some volume to em because it fits the magician in my eyes. Adds to hands/arm movement
Also Shin's eyes of more your blue/dark blue shades, while Kaito's of blue-ish purple
That's to say, I imagine/think Shinichi is the one who hunches more, while Kaito is the one who tends to lean back a bit/keep posture mostly straight (if he ain't sleeping in class lol)
>Kaito and KID: Kinda pathetic and messy vs your perfect phantom thief. More shadowy/half-closed eyes vs "oh he's bright awake and ready to go stupid go crazy". Some guy vs the charisma itself. That's to say, shadows cover Kid's visible eye most of the time. And he also has that grin...or his mouth hidden at all.
His hair appears bit more fluffier and neater, too.
I also tried to keep that juxtaposition with Shinichi of "more sharps vs more round" with him as well.
Overall, I like the thought of what if Kaito was more loser in canon, as in less people in school liking him, pitying for his family situation, etc, no entirely of course, because it's simply him, but feel it be more fun in contrast with Kid (and Shinichi)
Also, for Kid's cape...just didn't felt like drawing it here, you can excuse me, right?
I think that's all I have to say, but if there's anything ya wanna point out/hear, please ask away!~

🖌️ BEFORE & AFTER COLORING CHALLENGE 🎨
tagged by @blakbonnet, thank you <3 gonna tag (with no pressure!) @saltpepperbeard @darkinerry @kiwistede @milkovichy (if you've already been tagged I'd love to see your posts <3)
everyone should read Jodi's excellent post about giving credit to gifmakers <3
AND since I've also had to read comments like "what's the big deal, it only takes five minutes" with my own two eyes, let's do an experiment, shall we?
I'll make the same gif in 5 minutes with the first online gif converter that pops up (cheating a bit, since I already cut the clip and adjusted the frame rate so it runs smoother. also I used about 8 minutes minus the time it took to upload the video because I haven't used ezgif.com before) and through my usual methods ✌️ here they are:
and you know, the first gif is perfectly fine!! especially if you really just want to show a quick clip or need a reaction gif. BUT the second one is the kind that usually gets stolen (reposted without credit).
we all like pretty gifs, and the best way to get more of those is to appreciate the people who make them (reblog!! give credit if you use them!!), because seeing them stolen is deeply demotivating - we make them to share excitement and love for shows with fellow fans, and you're taking that away from us when you don't credit.
making gifs is work (and a skill that takes practice), and there's a person behind every gif (even the 5 min gif converter one), they don't just magically appear ✌️ give credit!!
