Re: My first profile
Colour is a very subjective thing, too. At my old flightsim site, ai-aardvark.com, people were asked to interpret the colours in airline colour schemes. Working from the same photos it was amazing that eight or so expert flightsim repainters could come up with such a wide variety of colours. Different graphics cards, different monitors, different colour/contrast settings and different brains. It was ai-aardvark that convinced me the extremes of the grey spectrum should be avoided in flightsim and profile art because they look unnatural. But I do use pure white and pure black for shading.
My comments on grey were made purely as something to think about, not a golden rule. I am sure everything said here is intended to be helpful, things to used or discarded as suits the painter.
