Hey Everybody, hope you can excuse my absence. This is a still life that I did about a week ago, and currently I'm working on my entry for the miniature competition, so don't be surprised if I'm gone awhile.

I see all of you have been pretty productive with all this excellent artwork.

Have a Good One,

Getting Started in Colour?

Hey guys, First of all - sorry I kind of disappeared, I had an external project in university to make a game and I was also away on holiday...

I’ve been studying value and painting in greyscale for a while now – but I really want to start to paint in colour…

Thing is, I’m attached to my greyscale drawings and I’m too scared to start colour because when I do start it just looks awful and not the same.

Is there any tutorials or tips for starting to paint in colour – what I want to achieve is something that is coherent with the rest of the picture – such as if it was a dark place dark colours, or a red kinda firey themed picture, reflected colour, choosing your palette etc – if that makes sense?


Something like this http://i32.tinypic.com/2qvxyxi.jpg (just a quick example I grabbed)

Could someone please link me to any of Xia's tutorials that explain painting in colour well? I'd prefer to be linked to idrawgirls.com!!!

Thanks!
