RED



Having a large image messed the format up.
This post was originally supposed to be about WWE superstar Shinsuke Nakamura but it changed halfway in the middle of doing some work.

Red. My favourite shades are somewhere in between red and a deep pink. The current shades in my palette are HTML codes #ff0095 and #ff001f. Paste the codes here to see how they look.

The pinker shade, #ff0095, is probably my preference. Its lazy, but I don't like drawing. I find it tedious. I like to make a layer over an image and fill it with a colour and then play around with the layer mode.


Example

Elizabeth Holmes. Hope you beat the case.

My favourite layer mode would be the Burn mode. The above image isn't the perfect example, but there I really like how skin tones go from red to pink depending on the shade.
You could tweak the contrast, highlights and shadows of the underlying image for different results or merge the two layers together and tweak with that. Also black backgrounds aren't really affected.

Layer modes are pretty interesting in themselves with a wide range of applications. Off the top of my head colour correction comes to mind where you use certain layer modes that only affect highlights for example and messing with the opacity.
