How to COLOR // 4 steps
Here's a coloring tutorial bc I said so. I tried this traditionally and it kinda works too :}}
Also I referenced the drawing I used as an example (the pink haired one)! You can go check out and support the model here: pCYOH-YYhz...

0:32 🐥 Alright, I'll try to make it short The word ambient/ambience means "surroundings". Ambient light refers to the phenomenon where the surrounding light in the environment bounces onto the subject. This is mostly visible on the shadow areas (because that's the only place where it's dark enough for the bounce lights to appear in) Ambient occlusion on the other hand is when the light rays that are bouncing in the environment, couldn't reach the small, teeny tiny crevices of the subject. If no light ray could enter the corner... Ofcourse it'll be dark. In other words, the "ambient light" will be "occluded" (subtracted) from those areas, thus its called "ambient occlusion". These are mostly seen where two objects are so close to each other that, they physically obstruct any light to appear. And there we go, hope I've explained these concepts well enough 🥸

they kinda did though, the video did not explain how that rendering was exactly achieved. feel more like this is a color picking tutorial rather than actual "coloring"

“nothing is holding you back” i use ibispaint😭😭😭
Step 1- base: Desaturated base colors Step 2 - Shadows: move down the color wheel or square diagonally -> \ (not vertically -> | ) Higlights are more saturated on the right while the highlights are more desaturated on the left Step 3 - Line art colors: Lock the line art and color it in twitch the shadow color to make it look less harsh Step 4 - ambient light: Pick a desaturated blue, dab it on a shadow, and then color pick that color to draw on as polish Extra tips: 1: Oversimplify and block out your colors 2: Organize your layers to make it easier to find the one you need 3: Remember lighting. The environment influences the area. Light bounces off objects. A blue shy will bounce blue light. A camp fire will bounce orange light 4: Try not to use pure black or white 5: it’s okay to color pick form other artists to study how they color. Try not to pic from real photos or it will confuse you 6: add back some more saturated colors if you use a desaturated base Hope this helps someone

I want to add that ambient light is based on the colour of your background. An example of this is when you take a picture of sunny area. The direct light is yellow because of the sun and the shadow/ambient light is blue because the sky is blue. The ambient light doesn't stay the same and it changes depending on the background you paint If you have no bg, just go with blue or purple as those are the more common ambient light scenarios that exist. Hope this is useful to some artists! :D

Honestly thought she was talking about bounce light when she brought up ambient light at first
Your videos are done so well, with the humor like a cherry on top on a frosting. Even thou its just a basic tutorial on how to color, which any artistic channel could do, your's just stands out. It has this charm, the graphic design that keeps your attention. Just everything. I could watch your videos over and over without getting bored just tells how well done it is :D
My brain: I got it My hand: No you didn't :)

How did they know I was zoning out😦
It's crazy how having a foundation in drawing or in painting completely changes the way you approach building an image. As someone with a more of a drawing background, your approach to color and lighting/shadow was so enlightening! (pun intended) Also the fact that you started with a rough sketch and then further refined as you painted and added detail along the way is so different than what I usually do. (which is start with fully rendered detailed lineart) I'm trying to strengthen my all around illustration skills so this was really helpful!
Ambient occlusion is like, those areas of extreme darkness that light cannot get to, like certain hair strands, maybe behind the ears or between fingers etc. Make sure to pay attention to them and leave them to the end of the shading process, put them on a different layer and switch it off to see the difference they make. It's really neat :)
you draw so well💕
I suffered with understanding how ambient light works, and here you are, explaining it to me in mere SECONDS perfectly. ty
Your like the bill wurtz of the art community, yknow bill wurtz right? Hes the guy who made history of the world i guess
4:18 : “Don’t zone out yet” Aw, you got me-😭
i genuinely love the way your tutorials are not only bite size but also visually chaotic im learning and memorizing much more than i would from 1 hour detailed shading tutorial with gazillion views
THANK YOU SO MUCH OMGGG THIS WILL HELP ME SO MUCH I'VE BEEN WONDERING HOW TO DRAW LIKE THIS😭
Your humor and editing is making it difficult for me to focus 😭 Can't go without giggling every 5 seconds
As an adhd person, it's my first time watching tutorial with no skip
I'm not sure if it's correct, but my Fine Arts teacher in art school taught us that ambient light is any light in a space that may hit and thus impact the color of objects. Ambient occlusion is where the lack of the ambient light might create 'deep darks' or otherwise give you chances to use color to emphasize shadow rather than using highlights, because you're rendering a space that cannot have ambient light (like, the dark center of a cave. Outside and around the mouth of the cave you'll have ambient light, but inside will have no light source, so you may use shadow to build form rather than light.)
I feel relief seeing someone else doing most of the stuff on one or very few layers. I've always felt like I'm being lazy or I'm not good cuz I don't use so many blending modes or layers. Watching this video gave me a sense of comfort. Anyway, amazing video and everything was easy to understand!
ever since your first vid i’ve been trying to figure out your coloring technique and then this vid pops up. literally tysm your art style is gorgeous
Your drawings give me so much inspiration and your tutorial helped me a lot before this. I am so excited to watch this one!! ❤❤❤ (I love your artstyle)
I dont really have a good time watching vids of tips or help on how to get my art to look better, but with this video the humor and the way it was explained (along with rei telling me to stay focused) really helped me in ways which not many other tutorials can, so thank you :)
Your art is so so pretty Omg! cant wait to see you grow more as an artist influencer💓💓 you explain so well and your voice is so calming!!❤️❤️

I’m at more of an intermediate place in my art but this would have been so insanely helpful when I was more of a beginner. I love how your super descriptive without talking to the viewer like a child.
thank you for the images to keep me from not zoning out. literal blessing
you are quite literally giving my art cpr every time you post 🙏
please more content like this from you.. i learnt a lot from this, and ur art style really inspiring me aaaaaa 😖😖💞
I giggled far more than I should've at this tutorial- I'm so excited to try this out as I've always been stuck on cell shading and never really learned how to properly render also you get extra points for teaching with SAI and using those painfully nostalgic GC Animal Crossing sfx LMAO
I actually learned so much in this video!! Ill be using these tips from now on :)) Your voice is actually so calming and soothing 💖
I watched this tutorial and went to draw and it felt like I made something nice for the first time in a while, thank you
MAN IM INLOVE WITH THIS ARTIST DUDEEEEEEEE SUCH A GREAT GUIDEE 😭😭😭😭
I LOVE your shading style.
thank you so much for this tutorial! ive been following you for a while and i love your art style so this was really helpful to develop my own coloring!💞
I learned more in this video than even in a professional video.😍😍😍 I watched so many different videos on painting, this is the most amazing, I learned more than from other videos
Bro knew right when I was zoning out 😭😭😭
Wow i actually finished another art learning video without skipping, this gives me another chance and motivation to take art seriously again. 2:56 and 4:18 saved me from actually zoning out ilove your videos sm
Thank you very much for this great tutorial!!! I have been suffering for long time to find my style in drawing... I always watch tutorials resemble yours but yours is the easiest and the most beneficial one !!! ❤❤❤
I love the video!!! not only it's informative it's relaxing (and the don't zone out yet with the plushies really worked)

"add ambient light" *bork* we got the bork of approval haha. i do love the chill mood and occasional jokes being tossed in
LOOOOL the editing is so good u got me dying insane art btw thanks for the tips
I don't use blend modes either so im glad u posted thiss❤
thank you so much! i've been struggling to simplify my colouring process to not make it so confusing and more natural, and this video really helped to boost my motivation :D I love the way you blend your colours, would you perhaps consider giving tips about the tools you use to blend and/or the settings of your brushes? wishing you well
so far i love ur vids, u explain in a way that i can understand and u show the process of how u apply what uve said, and ur pretty witty, the background music is nice also i appreciate the “dont zone out yet” things LOL
"I don't" know how you can animate your drawing but it would be great and I love the textures you give to your drawings
whattt your now one of my favorite artist 😭
Wow!! I love your style so much! You inspire me with your works! 😍
This video is really helpful!!! And I've been always waiting for another vid from youuuu!!
are we not gonna talk about how the editing is so high quality???
You made it sound so simple😭😭 Great vid tho + ur artstyle is so pretty~!!
Such a nice voice... it's a pleasure to listen to! And you explained it very well. Among Russian bloggers, I didn’t find a good explanation for how to render or simply draw hair, so I had to look at many English bloggers. It was your video that helped me the most. Thank you! (I apologize if the comment is poorly written, I tried to write without mistakes so that everything would be clear...)
I am speechless after viewing your beautiful work
i already love your channel, also love your art, you are my big inspo now
