Oh this is amazing! The depth is just so lively, and the colors added afterwards are very realistic! Ahh this is a very wonderful work!
Could i ask a question?
With what did you add the colors? with gradient maps, or some layer properties?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
if i remember, i use layer properties, like color, overlay and hard lights. the color change the color (well.. obvious) but the colors look pale and weird, so you need a extra layer of overlay or something like that.

Cara, pintar com preto e branco é uma maravilha, se preocupar apenas com volume e não com a cor é muito bom, só que tem várias observações no processo que podem tornar chato, se você deixar uma foto preto e branco vai perceber que nem todas as cores tem o mesmo "nivel" o cinza que fica de um amarelo pikachu é bem diferente do cinza que fica de um cinza do roxo do mewto (péssimos exemplos) então antes você tem que ter +/- mentalmente as cores que vai escolher, porque se não depois você vai ficar um tempão tentando ajusar o brilho e contraste pra acertar na cor que você quer, outra coisa ruim é que é dificil fazer transições de cores por luz e sombra, deixar a cor clara do objeto iluminado e a cor escura levemente roxo por exemplo.
É divertido porém tem esses detalhes que atrapalham, boa sorte : )

ha.. eu to ligado. mas dai vc dá aquele trato a mais no final. eu precisei fazer isso pelomenos, eu acho que ajuda a 'começar' melhor, geralmente eu refaço tudo pq não sabia por as cores, esse foi o primeiro teste que prestou mesmo =o

Stay inspired!

grayscale tones with vivid light and color layers on top

Niiiiiice! I love the gradient you have in there, and the slight texture speckle.

LOL this process is in reverse of how I work. In Photoshop I take my line art and color fully using three tones for each color used (dark, light and mid tone of color) to a dedicated layer. Always keeping my original color layers, I make a Combined Layer (ALL colors on one layer) then using LEVELS, Level it out to BLACK. Adjust the Opacity of that black layer to 30%-50% (Darker or lighter depending on what story you are trying to portray in the art) and use the eraser tool with an airbrush type tip (adjusting between 10%-50%) to define the highlights and the darks. If I need it to have SHINE, make a separate layer that you use the brush tool (airbrush tip again) the color WHITE to create your shine or specular color as I was taught the correct term LOL. Or just keep doing what you feel comfortable with.

well, its important to take a look and try different workflows to find something to fit with ourself, and never be closed to try something new
i think i already use something like you say, in quickly fixes of some jobs, to get a change of the contrast without re paint everything, just masking a darker version.. well. thanks for share a different process
