Lyraina's sketchbook

[Lyraina]

Thanks Jaik! Color is fun ;) And yeah, I try to apply the things (it's not THAT hard in theory), but I never like the results as much as what I see other people do with color theory... must dig deeper it seems.. o_ô

Anyway - Frazetta again: Composition - master study - nude without reference - master study - nude without reference. Done in that order.









notes:
- the brightly lit thigh reflects greyish on the wrist, while the lower arm gets hit by reflection of warmer flesh tones
- different angled skin surface gets hit by different colored light (green/background, reddish/skin)
- secondary light source (reflection from background) helps describe form on her lower back
- be aware of subtle reddish/pink areas (not orange)
