Color Theory resources

  • Mood: Cheerful
Hello all! I am very excited that the skin tutorial is finally going live. Hope you all find it useful. :) Thanks for being so patient.

As I mention, knowing your color theory and anatomy is vital to painting skin well. Someone has already asked for resources on color theory, so it seems logical to post this list in a journal so everyone see it:

Color theory tutorials on the web:

:bulletblue: Phil Straub : Color Theory Simplified [link]

:bulletblue: fredflickstone @ conceptart.org : Color Theory 1 & 2 [link]

:bulletblue: Henning Ludvigsen : Color Theory [link]

:bulletblue: Socar Myles : A Practical Guide to Color [link]

:bulletblue: Eugene Arenhaus : The Color Gray [link]

Those are all great starter tutorials. For more in-depth theory, look around on amazon.com for books on the subject. I am sorry but I don't know any to recommend. And of course, if you can try to take a class on the subject!

If anyone has other good resources or recommendations, link me and I'll add to the list. :)

Cheers :heart:

I have seen the moment of my greatness flicker,
And I have seen the eternal Footman hold my coat, and snicker,
And in short, I was afraid.
