Draw a mushroom overlooking a river that's in the background

Draw the incredibly masculine Professor Snape standing victorious atop a sea of cheesey salamanders and fat interns, exuding testosterone like a manly aura.

Reference image;



Imagine it as like one of those Conan the Barbarian kind of logo things, but with Professor Snape as seen in saucy fanfics.

Draw the Umbrella Corp logo in a dark, gritty style on a black background.

No.





Up Next:

I was trying a new style. I thought it looked uneven without something else, but when I made the freckles darker than the background it looked worse, so I made it a little lighter but not as light as the top.

No.

you've asked for it before Azrael, and I never could appease you.

besides...I hate GIMP and that's the only way I have for gritty.

Here's your mushroom overlooking a river


I'm not that happy with this. I might entirely redo it.

I'll try to draw this next:

I know a little about color and art, and since I'm making a lot of the art for our game I can share what I know with the rest of you. Hopefully it can help someone.

When picking colors for a theme, you want to generally use one color as your base. From there you choose a complimentary color as your highlight color, which you use just for highlights of specific things. A complimentary color is one that is at the opposite end of the color wheel.

For example this webpage uses white as it's base color, and black to highlight text. It also uses blue link text which compliments the yellow smiley faces in the default avatars. This might have been unintentional but it works anyway. If you want more variety in your base colors, you can use a set of base colors by using a split-complimentary set of colors. So instead of blue and yellow you could use two colors adjecant to blue on the color wheel. You could mix some red into your blue for one color, and an equal amount of green to create your other.

Complimentary colors are also a great tool for creating shadows and depth perception. Mixing a color with its compliment can give you a darkening effect of your color, which is great for color gradients that tend towards a shadow.

Natural day and night compliments are blue/purple for night and yellow/orange for day. You can use this knowledge to create color palettes pretty easily. I did this for making a lot of sprite images. This is what I meant by hue shifting.

Annnnddd that's about all I know. Oh one last thing in the color picker whenever you're picking colors in photoshop, stay away from the center of the picker. The center is low on saturation and if you use a bunch of colors from that region your colors will be very dull. You'll want to grab colors mostly from the edges of the square color picker.
