it's you, and it's a cloudy night to smoke one

oh, things happen when you move to the city

when you're with me, oh, how you feel me

oh, things happen when you call me pretty

#love notes #veorra #the city #and clouds spin around #to tell stories of us #and the sky is awash #with hues of me and you

I think 90% of my gripes with how modern anime looks comes down to flat color design/palettes.

Non-cohesive, washed-out color palettes can destroy lineart quality. I see this all the time when comparing an anime's lineart/layout to its colored/post-processed final product and it's heartbreaking. Compare this pre-color vs. final frame from Dungeon Meshi's OP.

So much sharpness and detail and weight gets washed out and flattened by 'meh' color design. I LOVE the flow and thickness and shadows in the fabrics on the left. The white against pastel really brings it out. Check out all the detail in their hair, the highlights in Rin's, the different hues to denote hair color, the blue tint in the clothes' shadows, and how all of that just gets... lost. It works, but it's not particularly good and does a disservice to the line-artist.

I'm using Dungeon Meshi as an example not because it's bad, I'm just especially disappointed because this is Studio Trigger we're talking about. The character animation is fantastic, but the color design is usually much more exciting. We're not seeing Trigger at their full potential, so I'm focusing on them.

Here's a very quick and messy color correct. Not meant to be taken seriously, just to provide comparison to see why colors can feel "washed out." Top is edit, bottom is original.

You can really see how desaturated and "white fluorescent lighting" the original color palettes are.

[Remember: the easiest way to make your colors more lively is to choose a warm or cool tint. From there, you can play around with bringing out complementary colors for a cohesive palette (I warmed Marcille's skintone and hair but made sure to bring out her deep blue clothes). Avoid using too many blend mode layers; hand-picking colors will really help you build your innate color sense and find a color style. Try using saturated colors in unexpected places! If you're coloring a night scene, try using deep blues or greens or magentas. You see these deep colors used all the time in older anime because they couldn't rely on a lightness scale to make colors darker, they had to use darker paints with specific hues. Don't overthink it, simpler is better!]

#not art #dungeon meshi #rant #i'm someone who can get obsessive over colors in my own art #will stare at the screen adjusting hues/saturation for hours #luckily i've gotten faster at color picking #but yeah modern anime's color design is saddening to me. the general trend leans towards white/grey desaturated palettes #simply because they're easier to pick digitally #this is not the colorists fault mind you. the anime industry's problems are also labor problems. artists are severely underpaid #and overworked. colorists literally aren't paid enough to do their best #there isn't a “creative drought” in the anime industry. this trend is widespread across studios purely BECAUSE it's not up to individuals #until work conditions improve anime will unfortunately continue to miss its fullest potential visually #don't even GET ME STARTED ON THE USE OF POST-PROCESSING FILTERS AND LIGHTING IN ANIME THOUGH #SOMEONE HOLD ME BACK. I HATE LENS FLARES I HATE GRADIENT SHADING I HATE CHROMATIC ABBERATION AND BLUR

Hi!! I don't know if anyone has drawn this before (sorry if they have!! I couldn't find any evidence of it) but I have recently been plagued with the question of "what if Machete and Vasco were in Bluey?"

Well. Now we know.

To my knowledge, the only Bluey dogs who wear clothes are the ones in uniforms. TECHNICALLY Machete's outfit could count, but I left it out because it's not typical of a main character. He must be naked 😔

.

#oh GEEZ they're so cute uaugh #no you're the first to make this crossover!#once someone told me that my dogs and Bluey could exist in the same universe #and even though I'm getting my Bluey lore from second hand sources I think that might be correct and feasible #so you know #take that and eat it with your breakfast #it's great how it's almost justified to let Machete keep his outfit but in the end he must be naked 😔#while everyone is on board with Vasco wearing only a smile #like yeah that tracks he doesn't seem to mind #I like how you managed to translate Vasco's gradients to a form that works with the art style #including the lighter chest/abdomen #also maybe this is an odd thing to say but I suddenly realized how monochrome they are #like their designs have very little contrast and are essentially just different hues of a same color #weird moment to notice that #thank you! this was so sweet #they're adorable #gift art #stafell #own characters #Machete #Vasco #I had sort of a rough day so this cheered me up a lot #cw needles #I had to go get blood tests done and this specific lab person had been really heavyhanded with me before so I asked her to be gentle #and she jabbed the needle into a nerve and I full on screamed in pain and sweated and shook and passed out for a couple of seconds #worst medical experience this far I never knew routine stuff like that could potentially hurt so immensely #I've never been scared of needles before and that has been sort of a point of pride for me #like at least I can do this one unpleasant thing effortlessly #but now I'm just terrified of that happening again #been feeling really weird/exhausted/nauseous all day and the arm still feels weak and tingly so I'm going to bed early tonight

trying 2 figure out how to draw the sillayssssss

#zipmode art #one piece #1pc #monkey d. luffy #nico robin #nami #i love when characters are color coded it lets me just shade them in their correct hue so you know its them #even if the doodle is messy as hell #my favorite part of catching up on one piece is looking up art refs and always seeing luffy with that big ass scar on his chest #where did that come from. what are they going to do to him. top surgery gone wrong ?

Psst If you have blank walls in your home you could just put a bunch of Superman art up clearly it's your thing.

He doesn't quite fit in my aesthetic... Now Clark would.

#No those empty frames are not to be trendy there to annoy me so much that I'll get off my ass and make art for them.#about me #My home #Q&A #I actually have a picture I'm working on that has Superman in it for my main wall #I mean I do love drawing Sups in birgth hues which would clash but to make the peice in the right value range and you can it work lol.

Welcoming 2024 the right way: by posting Nero Twinkification

#dmc #devil may cry #nero #devil may cry 5 #dmc5 #art meme #my art #hi i simply Do Not See the picture on the left #what do you mean picture on the right isnt how nero always looks and has looked #he is but a tiny baby slut. to me #and i will drive the albinism aesthetic into the grave #you cannot simply give me a white haired character and then slowly shift the hue of their hair darker over the years #and expect me to be ok with it

Random moments between Vaughn & Goro that make them fall in love with each other a little more 10/?

"When I lived in Yucca for a brief moment, right before moving to night city, I always looked up at those mountains and wondered what it'd be like to reach the top. I managed to do just that quite a few times actually. When I say it's magical up there, I fuckin' mean it. The wind blows so gently.. the air whistles softly.. The quiet.. almost too quiet, but the type of quiet I crave. It's the type of place to bring someone you love to get away from it all, an escape from civilization. You'd leave a changed person, you'd leave with a healthier relationship. I encourage it, you'll find peace." - Vaughn ♥︎

Random moments series: 1, 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 +

★ : you and your f/o haven't seen each other for a little longer than usual. it wasn't a welcome change in neither your not their eyes, so as soon as they finally show up (free for you to grab and trap into a bear hug) you waste no time in pulling them in for a kiss. chaste or passionate as it may be, it still leaves them dazed and grinning from ear to ear.

"i wanted to do that first!" they exclaim softly. the look in their eyes spells nothing but amusement and joy.

"too bad." you answer as a few giggles escape your mouth and their hand reaches out to hold yours.

the first thing f/o does the next morning is get their revenge in motion: immediately when your figure slips into sight, maybe still a little sleepy or tired, they plant a loving kiss on you, just the way you like it. the good morning that was about to leave your mouth gets stuck somewhere in your throat as you mindlessly lean into your beloved.

when they pull away to examine your flushed cheeks, it's like there's something triumphant in their smile.

"now we're even."

IDK if I'm phrasing this correctly, but in my brain, Vasco is, like, the personification (caninification?) of an afternoon chilling on a back porch swing.
