Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
Haha i actually have Briggsy on my facebook and i sometimes talk to him about colour stuff. Hue value chroma is the only source i can actually point people to without fear of it being incorrect. It's quite frankly awesome in the depth that briggsy has gone into, but he does have a serious problem of verbose writing and… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
Ok first of all i want to try and clarify where i am coming from and why i think that these things are important. Nothing I am arguing here is new information, especially if you actually have an informed idea of how colour works. Instead the question I'm asking is how can we teach colour better to painters and artist, and… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
I lold at http://realcolorwheel.com/ Was this site createdwhen color theory first came up ? :P What I personally find very important is splitting up colors in their warm and cold shades. The difference between warm and cold of each primary or secondary color is very important and is specific enough to get a decent… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
Thanks a lot! For the first example I understand now what you wanted to say. For the second I still don't see the connection. "As light colour changes the value of coloured objects also must change." That seems pretty intuitive. "This makes no sense unless you learn about channels." Why? (Ignore me, if you think this is… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
It's not just print colour theory, it's working with any traditional colour medium. It's not about whether you use it as a game artist, it's about the fact that the wrong information is being taught from primary school through to fine arts colleges. Also, believe it or not, while game art is the focus here, it isn't… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
Would you be able to explain it in any way without talking about channels? I could be mistaken but i can't think of a way. Also It's not what it about what seems intuitive to you personally, as i've met plenty of artists that are working, yet don't consciously realize that happens. Keep in mind i just provided a list of… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
Whoa interesting, i missed that page. I'm going to have to try and reread that a bunch to try and wrap my head around it. I think I have the startings of an idea for how it relates to lab. That being said this is a bit out of scope of the conversation here, as i do think for teaching people how to paint, getting into the… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
I can just move the sliders around until I get a colour that looks like the one I want? it doesn't matter what colour space I'm using? The digital painters I know who use CMYK are all print illustrators. So they mostly talk about color in pantone shades as that's the most popular colour system. While I understand that… -
We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
Hi everyone! In my years as learning how to be an artist I've gotten really frustrated about how colour and light theory is taught. There is a ton of misinformation, contradictions, false correlations and outright disasters being taught. I don't want to call out the dumb stuff here but one thing that i have realized over… -
Re: We need to talk about some of our art terminoligy.
This conversation is great. I couldn't agree more. We need a radical change in color theory. The vocabulary we have now is too vague and subjective to work very well in production. I think perhaps it can be broken into three sub categories: - Physics: How light works. A good chunk of which has been covered in this thread…
