WIP! WIP! WIP! [edit] thanks for the help! <3

[Ko-omote]

Some stuff I am currently working on.
trying new ways of colouring. >_o

first the lines then some colours.
I am still confused about what colours I should use for his clothes...any suggestions? His pants (or are those tights? LOLOL) are going to be black along with some other parts, but I'm not sure what else harmonizes.... x_x
Can't use red, because the protagonist in the manga he appears wears mainly red and black.

Hrmmm.....oranges, black, yellows/gold, and yeah, along those lines if you ask me...
sweatdrop
Maybe some whites/silver or paler colors to contrast the...brown hair?
-------------------------
Eh, Vampy's not all that good with colors, but I thought I would give it a shot.
mrgreen
Good luck

 

[Ko-omote]

hmm... yes, I think his armour would be some pale gold-ish colour. :3
Thanks for your help. I'm always a bit insecure when it comes to colours. they can so screw up a piece. ; _ ;  

[DrunkenStyle]

WHY NOT GOLD/YELLOW? With hints of dirty gray and/or silver. Gold/yellow is a good contrast against black, AND it's not so cliche like red and black.  

[VampireWolfcub]

You're welcome.

Yeah....that's why I tend to not color my art in general~

[Ko-omote]

hmmm, dirty grey? silver? gold and yellow? *strokes non-existing beard* sounds good and looks good in my mind xDD Now to try not to screw it up in PS. Lawl!
WISH ME LUCK D8

Thanks a bunch Drunken heart

even ive u ******** it up there is always the "adjust/replace color" option in photoshop :3 .. so ive u keep it all on diffrent layers u can just tweak it later to the color u want 3nodding

nice stuff btw.. u should draw like this wen your doing a avatar battle cool

I decided to be stupid and color his hair pink because I really wanted to whee ~~~~~ xd sweatdrop because i was going to suggest pink for the clothing... but it seems sort of clashing... but it could be a dull tone maybe sweatdrop ?
also, since people see that as a nice color or what not, and not that many serious bad guys wear it... ( assumeing this is the bad guy since you were talking about the protagonist as if it was a polar to it... sweatdrop ) and a character from unlimited saga came into my head.... but he was still a good guy though :/ but I see you already chose what you wanted so~
never mind me, I was bored xp
nice drawing btw~ :D

Edit


to be on the more serious/helpful side here is some color bubbles to see what I mean by dull pink '-'.... I put some of the suggestions of gray and then the hair color with the eyes color in there and the background with some of the things I thought '-'

 

[The Stoic Vagrant]

How did you get the line art to be so crisp? Mine always turns out a bit shakey...  

[The Pie]

I guess, golden and earthy colours would work well, especially with the background you got there.


However, because I'm crazy, I'd go ********' apeshit wild and neon the s**t out of everything. Lolol  

[arcaneSmuggler]

Well why not give the armor a Rust color?  

[Ko-omote]

Woah, Thanks for all your advices people, I'm hapeeee~ x3
