Heir beach party!
🕑 Added 2020-06-09 22:00:58 +0000 UTCDid this one to commemorate doing the six outfits prompt for the heirs!! There's a tiny rambling about lighting and painting on this post!
Wanted to use the models I did to show their height differences. I always try to strive for visual and body diversity in my work and I honestly think I achieved that with them!
> Initially I just put them side by side just to check how they look as a group and to establish their height differerences! (i mean, it was already established.... but only on my mind LOL).
> I've been wanting to draw them with beach wear so I just looked at them and..... I took the opportunity to go in this tiny self indulgent journey lmao. Wanted to make everyone doing something different, besides beachwear.
> LINEART... drew a tiny bbq stick for hulei because why not right
> Shadows!
> Flats!!! The bodies were already rendered so i didn't like die inside. I was a dumbass and didn't make a color sketch, like i fuckin tipped last post LMAO
> Then I was like. They usin beach wear.... let's do a beach lol. It was a legit ad lib, sometimes an idea pops and just do it, wish it could be like this all the time but i'm a anxious crybby
> Uh ok. They are at the beach but I didn't paint anything on them to actually make them part of the scenario.... they just look like they are like pasted over a BG somehow. I have to contextualize them with lighting.
I'm still learning some specific types of light but I know for one that with STRONG sunlight and open, blue skies, shadows appear as if tinged by blue due to the heavy scattering effect of the atmosphere (which favors scattering blue, as the color of the sky can tell). The object blocks the light from the sun, but its shadow isn't invulnerable to the ambient light that is blue on such days. I tried giving an atmospheric effect by doing a blue overlay over my finished picture.
Also of importance - sand is very reflective of light. Wanted to make some bounced lighting on things right next to the ground.
Light is important! As it happens, even the untrained eye can pick some uncanny things when you don't take it in consideration. They can't say why, but they know something is wrong. The bluish shadows on a sunny day, the orange light of the sunset and the moody gray of rainy days are all very natural to everyone of us that can perceive those things. It also changes how we perceive colour.
That's why I like planning first. I had to give these characters an adjustment for visual coherence, but I like taking these things in consideration in the composition since the start! I was kinda tired as well and just wanted to give a quick fix;;;; Hope it doesn't look cheap hehe!!
