MONTHLY CHALLENGE // colorful lighting
🕑 Added 2025-04-01 09:00:07 +0000 UTCThis month, we'll be doing a double challenge: both lighting and color at the same time! That's right: we'll be studying colorful lighting - which is no joke! 😉 This is a great way to increase your understanding of the face planes, as well as practicing your ability to combine different colors. This can be intense, so don't hesitate to simplify and stylize your studies. The inspiration folder is full of beautiful examples of how you can do this!
Visit this link to find all essential info about the challenge, including:
an overview of the challenge information
tips & advice
links to resources to help you complete it
a bonus challenge for if you have extra time
folders with reference images and inspiration images
Below is the list of helpful resources that can help you complete this challenge:
Sculpting with color: This is a great technique for blending bright and vibrant colors together!
Face planes: This tutorial helps you envision the head in a simplified 3-dimensional form. This can be really helpful when conveying lighting on a head! It also mentions the Asaro head, and there's a great example of that one in the inspiration folder too.
Process video // colorful heads: This process is all about blending bright colors together!
There is also a PDF file attached to this post with the challenge information, including clickable links.
I can't wait to see what you make! Feel free to post the results on social media with the hashtag #LoishPatreonChallenge, or share your results in the thread over in the discord server!

yesss! I was thinking about how lighting impacts perception of planes, which is why it was top of mind when I thought of this topic :)

It’s so cool how your tutorial on the planes of the face led right into this one ❤️
