So this is the first base I've ever done on my own, coloring wise. and tbh im not even that artsy when it comes to art programs. I wanted to make a nice, deep blue base therefore I looked for stones. Azurite was one of them that caught my eye the most.

I also love green! I added it onto the base I made. I'm actually not fond much of the green tbh but it's whatever. I honestly wanted a darker green but then it wouldn't really go with it based on the stone. Another blue base is for another day.
Please ignore the black dots on the colors. It helped me keep track which ones I already used.

Designs made by Shadow #42389 They're beautiful!

Then my attempt at a not so dark/bright base:

This was one of the original designs. I crossed out the orange color in this one because well, there's not orange.

Any critique is welcome! It's even fine if you just no support because you just don't like it. Although, I'll definitely add some suggestions people tell me!

saturated base soon to come
Thank you <3




This suggestion has 9 supports and 34 NO supports.

Try to find a blue that has no green in it, the green's too bright. try lapis lazuli

I'd soften up that green and grab colors directly from the image of the gemstone (I don't see the greens you used for the base anywhere in the gem itself, for example). Then, I'd have the colors more intermingled and together! I really like the gemstone

The colors are too strong and really hurt my eyes. You should've used these pastel colors shown on gem image you posted.

This base is overly saturated, It needs to be dulled down quite a bit and the blending between the green and blue isnt really amazing, its obvious that you made lines and just used a blending tool in certain parts and not at all in others.

I like the gem idea, just not the base proposed along with it

Made a revised version using colors from that image as well as learning a new blending technique (since Im v new at art, i thought a lot of artists use blur or smth similar.). Thoughts?

I want to add the orange/brown in there but not sure how! But I'm going to end up making a seperate base altogether that has brown/tan/white tones to it, just trying to figure out which colors to do

its still too bright :/ I would stuck to more natural bases if youre new to art just so you can get a handle on designing and what looks right.
