Color is one of the most complicated and subjective topics in art. Artist and guest blogger, CS Jones, summarizes it in the shortest terms possible.

3d models can be a crutch that keeps you from learning basic skills, but they can also be a powerful tool to take your art above and beyond what would be traditionally possible.
