I made something for fun and ended up raging.  

It’s called “Road Trip”. DLC characters were an afterthought.

shading colour tips

[bravestghost]

hey yall its me the Art Mom™ to help you shade pretty

rule 1: DO NOT SHADE WITH BLACK. EVER. IT NEVER LOOKS GOOD. 

• red- shade with a slightly darker shade of purple
  
• orange- slightly darker and more saturated shade of red
• yellow- i think like..a peach could work but make it a really light peach
  
• green- shade with darker and less saturated shade of blue or teal
  
• blue- shade with purple
  
• purple- a shade thats darker than the purple you’re using and maybe a little pink (MAYBE blue)
• pink- darker shade of red
• white- a really light lavender or blue..or i guess any really light colour??
• black- okay listen dont use pure black to colour anything unless you want to leave it with flat colours because you cant really shade black lol
• grey- a slightly darker shade of purple or blue (less saturated)
• brown- slightly darker and less saturated shade of purple or red

aaaaand thats all i got lol. let me know if there is anything i should add to this list!!

Coincidentally, I already use these exact techniques. I think these shades really help make colors pop!

As a bonus, I always stray away from coloring with any pure blacks or greys. Heavily desaturated blues, teals, and browns do the job better, IMO.

Save the color black for outlines if you want a real “comic” look. Stay away from coloring with black or grey until you draw something that’s 100% absent of light (black) or 100% absent of color (grey). When you finally use those colors for their intended themes, they’ll have a greater effect.
