Ever stuck on color schemes for your art?

[Blaze]

Yes, sometimes the color schemes for the zoid or main focus point is easy, but what colors to use in the background to accent the pic?! The easiest is to go with one of the 5 types of color schemes:
1. Monochromatic
2. Complimentary
3. Triad
4. Tetrad
5. Analogic

All of which depends where the color is located on the color wheel. If you don't know anything about the 5 types or anything about color, don't worry cuz the internet exists!

This website has always been my best friend for coming up with color schemes and is extremely helpful.

Hope this helps with anyone's fanart!


Maybe we should have a sub board for this? Tips for fanart? <_<>_>

Linux only unless you wanna play compile funtimes, but if you can run it, try it. It's hypnotizing.

*plays with wheel thing you linked*

Thanks for sharing, Shadow Blade! This'll come in handy for cell shading too!
