This Simple Trick Makes Your Colors POP!

by 05.24.2025

My video art diary of my work for my independent comic book, The Lucent. This comic book art is from my upcoming book, Fractured Mind. In it, I’m colouring a panel from the book that has a lot going on in it. In such pages, I like to have two light sources at my disposal so I can make whatever I point them at pop out from the background. If the hue of the lights is complimentary, that will especially make the effect work, and appear visually pleasing. For extra points, adding purple overlays onto closer elements will really seal the deal.

My name is Michael Bancroft and I’m an independent comic book writer and artist. If you’re a fan of the indies, or comic books in general, especially European and French-style Bande Desinnée, then please check out my channel. I want to make more original content based on my own work, so if you’re interested in this kind of video, please hit like, subscribe, and leave a comment.
