Decided to make a concerted effort with colour, followed Alex Negrea's 'ambient occlusion method' tutorial, really feel like I have so much more control doing it that way!
Working with one of my inktober drawings from above.
First image is the original ink, then the ambient occlusion pass which really helps so much to get the pieces feeling solid and 3d, then the flat colours, then shadows, then more shadows and bounce light and highlights.
Here's the 'finished' piece, recombined with the ink to hide the lack of finish xD (I could've spent a lot more time refining and polishing, but needed to stop and work on something now, I might go back to it after or probably I'll do a new one but put more time into the polishing stage)
