Sabi Nouveau Colored
Finishing these so fast is really doing terrible things to my neck and shoulders. I have the worst posture while drawing. u-u
I thought it was going to be harder because I didn’t know which map I was going to base the main color scheme on. Mado was easy because her background characters were Poniko and Uboa and they both live in the pastel sea… and I didn’t have that sort of immediate character association with Sabi.
It turned out that all I needed was to scroll through the different maps in .flow for a while before I found one with a color scheme I felt fit the mood of her game. I went with the Industrial Maze because the browns and bright oranges and yellows really fit the kind of… dingy, artificial feel that still feels alive sort of atmosphere that is one of the things I take from the game. Less dreamlike and more foreboding, if that makes sense.
I’m rambling. u-u Sorry. I should probably wait until moving doesn’t send sharp pains through my neck and shoulders before starting on Urotsuki…
