Since our light source ist above our char and slightly on the left side, there the lines are the lightest. As second step I adjusted the colors on these lines in black, lighter and darker lines. As result the steps between the colors still fit well enough into the scheme, but have the tone I was looking for.Īs second step I added the outlines to the hair and divided it into the strains. Since I found no matching tone in the default sprites, I took the palette of the hair of another char and adjusted the hue, tone and brightness.
On the right side of her head you see the palette I used for that. To get the result we want, I at first roughly scribble the shape of the final hairstyle.
