Okay, may I ask, how do you color you pictures so that they don't look so.. bright? I keep trying different things, but it always looks so flat..
I guess I'm just a failure is all..

First let me ask What program do you use?
-
Photoshop Elements 10 cuz it's all I know ;~;

Oh shoot. I know little about PS But I'll make a visual tutorial when I get home. Using pre made color palettes help And a soft brush. I personally prefer a technique that blends water/oil attributes with a brush. So it's fairly smudgey. For the OP photo Im painting on one layer and turned the blending on my marker down extremely low. Sorry if my explanation is shitty. I'm a visual learner and a bad teacher

Edited by Balto: 12/16/2013 8:52:09 PMIf you don't want them to look so flat, start off with the color you want, then use different...brighter or darker...of the same color to start shading with. Just keep in mind where the light source is. The more dramatic the changes are, the more the piece will appear to stick out.

So use different shades of the same color instead? Cuz what I do is make a shadows layer and use really.. thin?. black.
-
Yes. Say you have a red ball. Start by making the entire ball the shade of red you want. Then, closest to the light source, use a slightly lighter shade, then use darker shades on the opposite side where it's darker. Only use a little white for shine, and black for the really dark areas.
