"too bad beach u ain't got no green" got me wheezing 🤣. Thank you so much for the video!! :D

[@jkubed95]

I was literally just drawing wondering how to deal with this exact issue. I was planning to use the absolute color of objects, then use some multiply/addition/i-dunno-i'll-figure-it-out-when-the-time-comes kinda mask layer on top of it to make them all fit the scene somehow. this seems like an infinitely more elegant solution, thank you!

[@gms02]

Art is so hard to think about on a technical level for me; I think this will greatly help with my awful coloring. Thank you!

Eizouken best anime

[@hlmabffm7471]

Learning to work with a limited color palate definitely allows you to be more resourceful with your colors and I think this is just as important as being able to accurately see which values are darker/lighter than each other when you draw objects with a multitude of hues and apply that to a black and white drawing

[@BenieBeans15]

Thanks for sharing this info and for comparing how red is used in Ghana for funerals and mourning vs the western world’s portrayal of red🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

[@Lemon3_Works]

I see Keep your Hands Off Eizouken!! in the Background, I subscribe.

[@sophiaiqbal7137]

this helped!!! It never crossed my mind that that would be the way to replicate traditional paint mixing on a digital medium.

[@shinyskunk]

3:32 oh shit we're at an apple rave babey

[@arxeha]

holy smoke this is the first time i see a legit drawing life hack

[@sillyito]

your channel is the solution for all of my problems.

[@observer_IV]

I have hear of a color map before but where I heard it, they didn't explain it as easy to understand as you just did so... thanks a lot! I recently started to want to color my sketches so this helped me very much

[@BlackOrcStudios]

I'm pumped as hell to use this, while I love high saturated stuff for my silly cartoon art whenever I transition to more realistic stuff or comic stuff found myself doing what I called "painting by number shit" where everything was like...well how you explained it. I can't wait to give this a shot.

[@tinaholster5495]

THANKYOU SO MUCH this video came just in time 🙏🙏

[@user-ik3uo2ru9b]

Thank you very much for this video! Hopefully, this will encourage me to work in color more. I do okay in monochrome and greyscale but color is intimidating at times.

[@ChromaMoma]

You can do it!

[@aaronege5445]

Litteraly wat I had in mind earlier. Is this a coincidence?

[@ChromaMoma]

Yes

[@demonaliette]

YOU AINT GOT NO GREEN Oh ok thanks for the tip (fr)

[@sao0]

You're a witch! I mean, I was just looking for this whole grayscale colouring method and you just so happen to post a video about colouring ❤️❤️❤️❤️ so thanks for being a witch ✨✨😭

[@asimian8500]

Fantastic, short, and actionable video on color theory. One thing I recommend is to buy watercolors and play with mixing and color gamut’s by using only a few colors. I prefer using a split primary palette with warm and cool versions of the primary colors. I recommend Winsor and Newton Cotman watercolor set of 12 colors. It’s not too expensive and great for learning color theory which transfers directly to digital.

[@dahlia8534]

Color is so lovely- this was so helpful!! ♥︎♥︎♥︎

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad it was helpful!

[@blessedandbiwithahintofmagic]

This is really well explained through that example, and the lesson really shines through, those limited palette drawings are really eye-catching and individual. This is probably one of the simplest and most important coloring videos I have ever seen - excellent work to the creater.

[@AfenyiArhin]

Ohh Awesome , you know my country Ghana 🇬🇭✨, nice and yes truee Red is a part of the colours for mourning the dead. Greaaat video. Learnt a lot❤️

[@mandelbrotfox6861]

This is mindblowing to me. I'll definitely be trying this!

[@helpimrebelling]

Love to see eizouken in the background :) Great tips, thank you Kenn!

[@ARGHouse504]

Coolorus has a gamut mapper if folks use photoshop. Coolorus, Chameleon Addaptative Palette and Prisma Pallete are plugins I would recommend. Also Magenta is a lie... it does not exist except for in our heads.

[@jackofalltrades41]

hue, saturation, and value for properties of a colour, and gamut mapping for artificially limiting the scope of colours you use and walking the map toward a colour you may want even if it is not in the triangle. ok, these feel like good tips

[@aphrophonew.w1464]

you're like a touch more violent on this video compared to the rest of your vids and im so here for it.

[@Isabel-lc4hl]

Damn...it’s that easy…..wOw. Also if you need any video ideas can you also make a video about consept art. I one day want to become one too :] Loving you’re videos!!

[@RadishTheFool]

I'm amazed how you managed to explain all of this so clearly in such a short video. Kudos!

[@danieneit6830]

Great video as always! I never thought of using this kind of method in this way. Explains why my paintings always looked better when I chose my palette and stuck within the confines of those few colors and what I could make with them.

[@ChromaMoma]

Great to hear!

[@katemyersart]

thank you so much for this video!!!! i could never figure why i always struggled painting digitally but am fine painting traditionally, and now i know!! super excited to use this technique in my next digital piece :D

[@juicymilk6954]

I love these vids so much, i cant put the amount of joy and inspiration I get from these!

[@flfb]

Ah thanks Kenn! I love finding new tips and tricks like this. It always helps streamline my process and elevate my art.

[@ChromaMoma]

Happy to help!

[@nobody-fl8cf]

I think this is the first tutorial on color theory that actually helped me understand. thank you for being so informative!

[@misspetite9285]

This was so helpful. Put so simply with a perfect example. Thank you :)

[@bdizzle1118]

That's excellent advice! This helped me out. Thank you :)

[@thomasastley7602]

Thanks for the video red is seen as danger in Europe and UK thanks for the tips

[@Amtoast3]

First video I saw that tells you how it is. So much easier to use! Thank you :)

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kerlo.6418]

This video was so helpful! Thank you!😊

[@joaovictorsilva3092]

I like to do a separated layer and mix some colors with any mix tools or blurs, this really changed my view of how do i do coloring

[@milobuatti2856]

This is my new favorite video of yours!!! Color has been intimidating me so much but I’m so excited to try these ideas

[@ChromaMoma]

You can do it!

[@saravillarreal9227]

So helpful! Thanks for doing this. Transitioning from traditional to digital feels a lot less intimidating.

[@DanielRamirez-zj7tm]

Thank you for making this video! I’m excited to try and implement what you said into my own artwork ^-^

[@ChromaMoma]

Go for it!

[@ohbli_oh]

Instant subscribe your descriptions and presenting style are just perfect 🤩 I learned so much from this even thought I thought I knew it.

[@ChromaMoma]

Welcome aboard!

[@Alchast_]

Thank you for this video!, I knew about gamut masks (I think that's how they're called) but didn't really know how to use them and ended up using colors outside the gamut masks because I didn't like how the colors looked, this was really helpful!

[@marie_3995]

you always got good tips :')

[@peeurse4071]

studying for a color theory test, and this came at such a good time! love your content :)

[@ChromaMoma]

Good luck!!

[@MatthewRobinsArt]

Dude you have no idea how much I've struggled with colour. Can never get it to look how I want and I think this might have just fixed my problem. Thank you for this!

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad I could help!

[@BALLOLETT]

Thank you so much for real! It's so difficult to understand videos of colors for me but this one just make sense!

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MackSEpique]

I heard of this before, but this is the first time I fully understand it! Thank you for this. 🙏🏼

[@ChromaMoma]

You're so welcome!

[@amoyu]

- color is relative - local color, absolute color: painting objects what they should be ohhh? triangle space color ayo? that’s it?

[@A.Shek_]

loving this channel man...keep going. fav asian art channel

[@chibyversity5356]

I've tried it and it could be great but I need to try it a few more times to master it. Dang, nice video thanks!!

[@Ponpon9302-arts]

Wooahh mindblown!

[@douseiaishogun8336]

Amazing video, really helped a lot! Thank you

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad to hear it!

[@RakanMag]

I see... So if i use this kind of triangle then i don't have worry about the hue and saturation sliders but rather should only worry about the values of my painting and whether i got them correctly... i'll attempt this tonight but please correct me if i'm wrong....

[@francisconunez720]

Dude, very nice and explicative video

[@rocketmanhunter1017]

thank you so much, I learned something new

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad it was helpful!

[@stratovolcano7813]

Excellent video! I am going to watch the eizouken opening now

[@ChromaMoma]

Easy breezy~~~~~~~

[@omarilawson6250]

This was such a good video

[@hayatzor6249]

You saving my life

[@LunNightMoonLight]

This helps so much thank you (guess I’m dummies because this made so much sense I tried to learn before and didn’t get it)

[@nahumraccoon9212]

Thanks man, this is gonna be so helpful!, btw what camera are u using??

[@BigDomski]

The only time I paint is with watercolour and you hear the words "limited palette" on what seems like every video 😂 Still, this was helpful. I never thought of it as "mapping" but it makes so much more sense when you showed it on the screen

[@chickentastesbetterwithsyr7000]

I was waiting for a new video.

[@estebanod]

You're drawing a gamut map ON A GAMUT MAP???? Wow

[@nofalloutsurvivor]

Cool

[@Eva--Valentina]

Does anyone have an idea how to create a gamut map triangle in Clip Studio Paint?

[@sciencefantastic]

So...just pick three colors? I don't quite understand still...

[@PleaseSignOut]

Hue could maybe be explained a little better… the color of the color?

[@shamardaniel4819]

Damn… No green today😂😭😂

[@thombas8936]

But is it breaking the rule to change the value of your color?

[@leoartclub3490]

So helpful dear friend.......😍 New subscriber

[@ChromaMoma]

Thanks and welcome :)

[@TeeTiro]

im so mad it works fuck... FUCK i really thought i was above everyone when all what u said up until gamet mapping....

[@user-ws2me9xm8t]

I've known new info

[@OP-pe4yc]

the background music is a bit distracting

[@124Musick]

The argument for color being westernized falls apart when you look at the psychology behind color pairings, triads etc. Visual communication speaks to the subconscious...

[@nerrorr6033]

For me, the technical side of color theory doesn’t make sense to me when explained, but i still utilize its concepts, basic and complex without knowing it; just wanted to say for peoples who head spins when learning and treating it like a textbook; observing and breaking down pro artist works in your head, especially for me, is the best way to learn, letting you bring the knowledge to apply through trial and error into your pieces and studies Gl anyone reading it and just remember, if it was easy everyone would do it :)) Also great video, well broken down for my monky brain🦧
