Ok so after Rampage is released and is on this website, I want to show you guys how important shading is by comparing the shaded rampage to a unshaded rampage. Color is also very important but shading(granite color) is very important. It’s not only just making that segment color Dark or light for that granite color, but you also some times want to have Different types of granite colors different from the segment colors to make it more colorful and to make it less bland. Like for example: Devastator’s three yellow figures have different types of yellow, but also has different types of shadings on it to give it a more realistic look to what each vehicle has been through or how different each vehicle has been made. It’s hard to explain, but depending on the stick figure, you want to have a variety of shading. Like I’m working on rampage right now and let’s say if he went through the desert, you may want to add like a brownish, Orange, yellowish color on the wheels or on the bottom section of that vehicle because he was driving through dirt and sand. You don’t only rely on shapes for detail, you also rely on the granite color that goes with that segment color to give it that extra texture/detail. That’s my lesson for today.
