yknow on the topic of the pmv im making, I don’t think finch ever tells night what she did to get banished to the dark forest. she might have personally accepted it, but how could she admit that to night? what could she possibly say? the whole reason she did something horrible was in support of night, who in her eyes doesn't deserve to be in literal hell. what night's doing is good, right and selfless.
whereas finch? she's doing the exact opposite. she's just a monster fighting for liberation that she doesn't even deserve.
Attack on @/smewduck's Night! Had a really good time drawing the creature <3 (+ unshaded version)
trying to add another longer chapter to one of stardust’s parts is killlinggg meeee. I think actually I can’t write novel-style anymore im stuck with short tiny one-shots that I can pack with figurative language without anything actually happening
I was asked how I make my characters fit the background with such minimal shading, and here's how I do it!
Starting point is just background + the base colors
Add a multiply layer on top of the characters. The color is usually eyedropped from the background, but just as often I just play with the hue/saturation/brightness slider. This layer usually has either high transparency or brightness so it doesn't become overpowering, especially if the background is light.
Airbrush the background colors lightly on top of some parts of the characters, usually the outer edges and the parts that should be in shade. I do this willy-nilly with a big brush.
Add color dodge as the last thing, and let it affect both characters and the background.
There's thousand other ways out there, this is just how I've done it!
random night sketch i finished
I love symbolism about my characters nobody else understands
shes a little sensitive about that, i wouldn't bring it up :[
closeup:
redesigned Rainpaw! :]
I think this design works better, this way he looks more obviously related to both silent and talon (sister and brother), and there’s around 6 bits of this design that foreshadow/hint to different things :] which I think is neat
NIGHT
