I've been meaning to post these for AGES since I'm still quite proud of a lot of these, but here's a bunch of drawings based on various RD fics! In order we have one based on @hear-that-music-in-the-air's fic In Dreams, a couple others based on their fic Hedgehog's Dilema, a couple based on a fic of my own that'll probably never see the light of day but I still like the art lol (the gist was that Ian reaches a breaking point after the stress of constantly working on the defibrillator gets to him), and lastly for up here, a little doodle based on @lolatulips' fic A Rainbow Connection!

Of course we ain't finished yet, I just needed to banish these last ones to below the cut because warning for glitchy gif and eyestrain, but here's a gif based again on In Dreams (and the two MUCH higher quality stills) and another little doodle from my fic that I'll probably never finish 😅

En's Art Crime#10

Hatsune Miku as an L Corp Nugget. Woefully late for "drawing Miku as whatever" trend. Alas.

Used one of the Project Diva cover arts as a reference for Miku.

⭐ Pixel Art Fundamentals - Hue Shifting

This technique is not uniquely specific to pixel art, but it's a very common term to hear when starting out watching those "dos and don'ts" videos. So what is hue shifting?

Hue shifting basically means to change the hue when making your shade darker or lighter. In this context, 'hue' = colour!

You may hear 'you need to hue shift more' when getting feedback on your art, but what does that mean really? Here are some examples:

We can see even with just a bit of hue shifting, we have quite a different vibe for each drawing. In warm / daylight settings, no hue shifting can sometimes look a bit muddy or grey.

If we swap the image to grayscale, you can see that they look much the same:

As long as the hue shifted colours have a brightness that makes sense, they usually will work. You can get quite wacky with it.

But is hue shifting always good? Not necessarily.

Below is some of my art where I intentionally didn't hue-shift at all. You can see it gives them an uncanny, digital, or photographic kind of look. As always, techniques are about your intention, or personal style.

I recommend trying different hue shifting methods! I especially love to use a cool blue or teal for the lighter shades.

Thanks for reading and I hope this helped a little! Have fun with it!!
