Something I try to keep in mind when making art that looks vintage is keeping a limited color pallette. Digital art gives you a very wide, Crisp scope of colors, whereas traditional art-- especially older traditional art-- had a very limited and sometimes dulled use of color.

This is a modern riso ink swatch, but still you find a similar and limited selection of colors to mix with. (Mixing digitally as to emulate the layering of ink riso would be coloring on Multiply, and layering on top of eachother 👉)

If you find some old prints, take a closer look and see if you can tell what colors they used and which ones they layered... a lot of the time you'll find yellow as a base!

Misprints can really reveal what colors were used and where, I love misprints...

Something else I keep in the back of my mind is: how the human eye perceives color on paper vs. a screen. Ink and paint soaks into paper, it bleeds, stains, fades over time, smears, ect... the history of a piece can show in physical wear. What kind of history do you want to emulate? Misprinted? Stained? Kept as clean as possible, but unable to escape the bluing damages of the sun? It's one of my favorite things about making vintage art. Making it imperfect!

You can see the bleed, the wobble of the lines on the rug, the fading, the dirt... beautiful!!

Thinking in terms of traditional-method art while drawing digital can help open avenues to achieving that genuine, vintage look!

Merry Christmas, @consuelodoodles! Hot dang, you throw me way back in the fandom. I was your Secret Santa for @homestuck-secret-santa.

Hope you like these exiles! I did a day and night version, and then a quickie extra doodle for fun. And also if you wanted just them running for whatever reason, there they are! Since Tumblr’s just gonna shrink down these big images you can just grab a download here.

Happy holidays!

The Lost Slot Brother

In the Slot Brothers card game, there is a fourth Slot Brother named Sombrero. His design differs from the three other Slot Brothers, as he wears orange instead of green and has a smaller moustache. This game is Sombrero's only appearance.

all eyes on you
