Manipulation of Colours



This time I'm going to talk about an artist that goes by the name panamaman, a korean freelance artist/illustrator/character designer. An example of more of his well known works is for a Korean MMOTPS called S4 League and a rhythm game called DJMax. The reason why I wanted to talk about this artist for this colour post is because of his artworks. The way he uses colours have always fascinated me which I find one of the reason why his art style is unique. He manipulates the colours and use it for shape, texture, layout, and overall design. It seems he uses colours to create a very loose form for his art, such as clothing, objects, background, etc. Colours can be use in more than one way. An example is using to make it appear like there's a reflection on the floor or river by using a simple gist of colour of what it reflects on. I really like his loose form, edgey, and modern style. Especially for his character designs, as I want to get into character design myself.



You can see more of his artworks on his Pixiv account and his own blog.
