@@marcobucci How marvellous! I wonder, besides the better known creations, did you ever come across a 'comic' series of his called the Bojeffries Saga (drawn by Steve Parkhouse)? Very funny and distinctly english. I read it in a short lived magazine called Warrior when I were a lad and rediscovered it recently. Man there was some interesting work in Warrior.
I hadn't actually considered how the average background color contributed to the shadow. That's very clever.
It never occured to me to practice on simply painting a ball instead of fudging around with the landscape of the face. Thank you Mister Bucci!
This goes completely in line with the lighting mentor video where he talked about the shadows not actually being “colored” but the shadows being a secondary light source aka (the ambient light.) so it makes sense changing the environment doesn’t change the light side in blender but the shadows because that’s what it’s illuminating! :DD
Just when you thought there was no better way to explain colors than his old videos of Ambient Light and Occlusion... He's a master and I'm so happy to have access to his knowledge ✨
You and Lighting Mentor are the reason I understand color now
Forget flesh tones, this helped me with all my coloring so much??? You explain things in a way that just makes so much sense and I appreciate that so much. Lighting in art feels like common sense when you hear it but I've always struggled with it. Thank you so much for this video, it really helped a lot!
Beat for beat this is how I figured out shadows which is paramount in the process. This is the most important video any artist can watch that works with color. It's everything.
Yesterday I was struggling with the shadow tones, and then YT recommends me this like a gif from heaven.
Marco your videos are always a breath of fresh air, I hope you know that.
Hey Marco, I just want to thank you for always being an inspiration and a mentor to thousands of aspiring artists around the world who most you will never meet. We are eternally grateful!
this was super helpful!! Colors no matter how many tutorials I watch, totally elude me. I know about values etc but I think especially with digital painting the choice and range of color is so vast it's easy to gt it to look off. Especially skin colors because we all immeditely notice if they're off in contrast to clothes etc. So this really made me go "aha" and I will write it down and apply it on my next painting :D
Once again, another golden nugget in this grand space that is KZread. Thank you much for this wonderful video that makes this easy to understand. ❤
If you find yourself having trouble with values in the "shadow" side, remember that if a surface has any value above black, it's because there's a light source on it. Figure out the properties of that light source and you're back in business. A shadow is the absence of light. No light, no information. I prefer to think in terms of lit (when the form is facing the light) and unlit (when the form turns away from a light source) rather than light and shadow.
Finally someone explained the thing that confused me in colors, thank you so much!
I really love the result of the last painting!
This was just the tutorial I needed! Thank you so much! 🥰
Thank you!! 😭 finally it's all laid out in one place cohesively 🙏can finally relax my confusion
Thanks Marco. You're one of the best art KZreadrs and I'm always happy to see a new one from you.
Master Bucci back with another banger video lol, great one as usual.
I’m a cg guy who watches these to be a better painter so the Blender stuff is sooooo helpful. Really makes me remember I can use the cg to help me learn drawing haha
THANK YOU MARCO BUCCI!❤️
your videos mean a lot Marco thank you
This is incredible, changed the way I think! Presumably this applies to all materials?!

Yes, although the details will vary according to how each material scatters and reflects light.
Impressive! Thanks, Marco Bucci!
Very clear and beautiful explanation! Thank you!
This was incredible! Thank you!
Thank you Marco!
You are THE man! Patreon here i come
You saved my life with this
in my experience Less saturate in warm color = more tends to cool color so using grey in shadow with warm base color can also work. It doesn't mean that your color wheel should go toward cooler hue in some situation this is definitely one of the most valuable color tutorials on youtube
i really needed this thank you
Excellent explanation.
I feel like this would have strongly benefited from a broader range of skin tones. This isn't just about inclusion - blood vessels look different under dark skin, and light tends to behave differently on it too - not just in terms of what colors to use, but how reflective it is.
Thank you for showing this, nice hack!
omg you are genius !
Did... did.. I just actually comprehended a topic that always wanted to understand better in a random Sunday morning after I woke up just saying to myself "let's see what is this weeks video about?" ?!?!
Yes!!! Thank you
"I've got a little flesh ball I can light," I murmured to myself, covered in Cheeto dust and shame.
huh, i always assumed that the ambient color would affect the light tones, in some way. Good to know that the intuition wasn't accurate!
I'm craving some new courses Mr Bucci, any planned in the coming weeks/months ?
Excellent video! Thank you for the insight. Flesh absorbs a lot of ambient color and it's something people forget sometimes. The real question is how do we apply this to red, green, blue, purple skinned characters?

The same. You should ask yourself: is this color cooler or warmer? So if your base color is red, your ambient color is blue and your light is something in between (neither too cool or too warm or just white), then values in the light should be pretty similar to the base color, after all they all are part of the same 'family'. The shadows are effectively the opposite, as the video states; is not necessarily a specific blue rather a cool color, for instance purple compared to red is cooler, and purple is warmer than blue and so on. In a nutshell first think of the main composition: what is the subject, where is it placed and under which circumstances, then picking colors to fit your vision is relatively simple.

@@MrEllinan excellent tips. Thank you
Is it also true for black skin tones? I often see blueish highlights in African portraits, I think their skin might be more reflective? It's hard to understand and it makes me more stressed to paint!
Marco, thank you for your educational tutorials. What application are you using for drawing in this video? Jorge.
Thank you so much Marco! When you make an illustration with multiple objects and forms, how do you apply this? And what about schemes of color like triads or split complementary?
Foreshortening in perspective please sir....,❤❤❤❤
Can you make a tutorial on how to draw hair?
Great great great tutorial!!!!!! what temperature would be the dark halftone just at the edge of the terminator? it's still in the light but turning away from it, so less saturated and cooler????
Hi Marco , i have your courses on skillshare and i have the cgma painting course as well do you think i need to watch the color survival guide or the brushwork techniques after the cgma course ?
Pretty easy understanding the cool shadow color, than warm shadow. When working with warm, the whole piece tends to go monochromatic to an extent. I really need to get an iPad honestly, this will help me work anytime. Thank you Marco
Hey! How is your blender color wheel square (instead of circle) ?
question, would it be possible to have a relatively cool shadow with warm environment color? or would it not work?
the goat
How to get this simplified version of color wheel like in the video ?
What about darker flesh tones?
❤❤❤❤
I think i understand it but i have a hard time choosing my colors since my drawing program doesnt have a color wheel but a triangle or a square. I feel like im shifting the colors in a wrong direction.

The principles will apply to whatever color choosing model you use. The base colors, influenced by the lighting, will tend toward the light based on its intensity. For example, if you have a yellow streetlight shining on a character with blue skin, the lit part will look a little more "yellow." Just adjust the hue across the shorter distance according to color order (e.g., instead of going from blue to purple, to red, to orange, to yellow, instead go from blue to green to teal to yellow). Does that help?
Cheating with Blender? Waaaaaay ahead of you.
