He's colorblind so he just picks them all over.

Jk they make some sense.

Hey metal wasn't it yellow/green blindness?

I was honestly going to say something on how nothing you just said made you not look like a terrible person. I think I'm going to wait and see what Chao thinks, though, because it's probably going to be much, much funnier.

I wonder how I would react to being colorblind.

You'd probably look at colors in a different way.

For the base colours I just cheat


Highlights I just learned to do with maths instead of by eye
Shifting the hue up or down by 3-5 points and the luminosity by somewhere between 10 and 20 is usually sufficient, if that doesn't look right I tinker with the saturation a bit too but as you can already probably tell I like that as high as possible.

I'm not sure colourblindness is reproducible in a fully-grown human man because as far as I'm aware I have the same number of rods and cones in my eyes, just different ones. They can't just pull some of them out and reduce your perception of the spectrum. It would be an interesting experiment if they could though.



And I'm pretty sure yellow/green colourblindness isn't a thing.
There's four kinds of red/green colourblindness and one for blue/yellow. I'm one of the more common ones, surprisingly enough.

You should move the hues more the darker they are, since the darker a color is the less effect hue has on it.

Either the hue or the saturation yeah (usually lower saturation, in the case of a dark colour )

The Mexicano Hand is epic.

I like that one.
It's like a stained glass forest.
You should do that, make a stained glass forest

To be frank I don't even like how this came out at all but I feel compelled now to drag you all along with me on my "draw a pokemon every day of December" journey until the bitter end

Aw Metal Chao I normally love your artmons but yeah, this one feels seriously off to me. If you don't mind some serious nerdy criticisms: Reuniclus is normally portrayed with his eyes much father apart, with his mouth open, and with no eyebrows. Generally the split in the middle of his head is a lot more prominent as well.

Obviously a flop, but I tried. I don't draw dark enough, the shading looks out of place on his eye, and his eye appears to be looking at you instead of forward, the feathers... ew... I have no clue how to texture that big of an area. The only thing I like is the beak.
