#Crows Ask

[midnightcrows]

do you have any tips for coloring/rendering? your art always looks so effortless and cool!! you always have the best color palettes.

aw thanks!! my reccs for making color palettes work is to learn color theory, not merely for understanding color palettes but to understand color values. if you pick a bright red and a bright yellow at the same value on a color wheel they actually don't read the same because of the ways our eyes work

you'll see a lot of my art is either complementary colors or analogous, including the first paintings above are analogous- green, yellow, orange. Yellow, pink, purple, blue.

the top portrait here is mainly dark teals and in gray scale the red glasses are also a dark value, but because red is so different from the blue/greens it stands out by color alone

Something I've learned lately is using Color Burn, Linear Burn, or Darken color instead of Multiply for my shadows, set to a very low percentage, esp for pieces where i really want the colors to be dark and rich

Lastly, when stumped for color palettes take inspiration from nature

#Crows Ask #my art #sorry this is so messy #i hope this helps! #I realize now I didn’t touch on rendering but for that I’d say keep ur workspace tidy and keep separate layers for everything

Imagine crow Matthias giving magpie Lucian a scrap of ornate cloth (Lucian’s favorite scarf) cause crows give gifts to show affection.

"This is for you"

Wylan, getting ready to visit his mother's "grave": How about your parents ^-^

Kaz, internally panicking: Uhaaahhhh...

Kaz, master of deflection: My mother is Ketterdam and my father is profit :)

Stupid six of crows au where instead of the ice court it’s a water park and instead of gauging their timing by the elder clock they time it by the sound of the wave machine.

I feel like we never acknowledge the sheer comedy of the fact that when Wylan and Jesper help Inej take down merchers involved in the slave trade they're literally ratting out their shitty coworkers.

#its genuinely so funny #inej rolls up to ketterdam like 'hey i know this is a lot to ask but do you think you can help me take this guy down?' and they're literally #like 'who dave? oh hell yeah we fucking hate that guy say less' #six of crows #crooked kindgom #inej ghafa #jesper fahey #wylan van eck #wesper #soc
