Brandon Graham's Blog, page 18

April 15, 2020

i've noticed that, in a lot of color palettes you use on your pages, the colors are all the same temperature, which sort of flattens the depth of field in a picture plane. I do not mean this with any mal intent, but why do you do this? thank you.

I looked up a color temperature chart.

  what I do is certainly a 70′s/80′s French comics influence (

I dislike the look of 1990′s pro-animator Disney colors– ) but it might be that I came from black and white comics or that in recent years I’ve aimed to focus on tone over color. – like the one below with no gutters between panels– where the yellow of the sky is a different tone when it bumps up against another yellow sky panel. 

For the page below– The red is meant to pop out as separate from the tone of the scene so the arrow in the last panel stands out. (the sound effects are red and blue because of a kind of Peter and the wolf thing I was doing to give each major vehicle in the story it’s own color) 

I guess the short answer is, I just like how mid tones look. I imagine I’ll mess around with different tones in some of my future work  I enjoyed doing this red light scene with the bright blue screens.

#20202020 #dailydrawing 056 of 366, the marshling from no comic in particular as of yet. Despite his resemblance to DC’s swamp thing and Marvel’s man-thing, just to avoid any copyright entanglements i am calling this guy Marshling (unless that name is being used by someone already?) and i did it specifically for a @patreon subscriber. I want to keep these daily drawings just to characters or things that aren’t corporate licensed, but this seemed like a fun painting exercise. I could see this mushroom monster frolicking somewhere in the world of the Wrenchies. if you want to get one of these little drawings for only $20 plus shipping check out my patreon. Thanks. #swamp #marshling #monster #swampmonster #swampcritter #watercoloring #timelapsevideo #timelapseart #fabercastellpittartistpen
