LIMBUSIFY YOUR ARTSTYLE (optional)
The core components of limbus companies artstyle are as follows:
Textured, ink pen like lineart
Desaturated colours leaning towards the outermost area of the colour square
Cell shading with some texture
lots and lots of visual effects. God have mercy
Keep references around while drawing, as there are often lots of small details and these will be your guide for not going too crazy with your noise effects.
2. BACKGROUNDS
In the interest of saving time, here’s a free template for you to use. Feel free to change up the background colour however
Key notes:
The background colour loosely matches to the sinner’s eye colour, however usually slightly more saturated.
the outer border is lined thinly by black. This also covers the limbus logo section.
3. TEXT
The font for the light yellow text for your sinners weapon is Futura Condensed Medium. There’s a slight black backdrop to it you can get from duplicating the text and lowering it slightly.
4. EFFECTS
Sharpen, noise and blur will be your best friends here. Too high quality of a character sprite can make it not mesh with the background, and look odd when matched with canon portraits. Here’s a step by step process:
Add wear to the portrait with textured brushes, low opacity and blending modes. I’d generally suggest using gouache or watercolour brushes very lightly to establish texture, then going back in more strongly to indicate dirt and grime. Always use a coloured shadow.
using a blur filter, blur your character on the lowest setting possible, to the point it’s almost unnoticeable.
If your program has a layer texture filter, switch to the noise option and lightly cover the portrait with a thin layer of noise texture. If not, use your pen’s texture settings OR download a png of noise texture and set the layer it’s on to multiply, then lowering the opacity to around %5-10.
Apply a sharpening filter very lightly, only to the point where when zoomed in light colour separation and grain from the lineart can be seen.
aside from that, I’d always recommend playing around with colours, light and textures to make the portrait fit closer.
In the end, it can look something like this!
To conclude this, have fun, go crazy, and suggestions on how to improve this guide are very much encouraged.
I remember a post about Spiderman being an honorary magical girl and I have a own little additional opinion:
Ben 10 and Danny Phantom should also be honorary magical girls
Reasons:
- They have transformation scenes
- They are teenagers (like the ones I'm familiar with)
- They have/had a weekly villain format of episodes
- They got dark at certain points (I'm not sure about most magical animes but I know that Madoka is definitely dark)
- Why not?
