♡ 6 COLORING PSDS FOR KPOP CONTENT CREATORS ♡

hi my friends! lately, i'm feeling our content creator community has been going through some challenges. for me, coming across a new resource can get me excited & inspired, so i wanted to offer a resource of my own to all of you - i can't do much as a still-fairly-new cc, but i am sharing 6 of my fully adjustable, made-from-scratch colorings (original is in the circle, with PSD on the outside for each example). i hope they may provide some inspiration to someone here.

credit is not necessary, & adjust these as much as you want! however, if you find these useful, i'd love if you would reblog so other ccs may also be able to find them. and i'd really love it if you would send or tag me in your creations so i can see !

download here // details on each PSD under the cut // feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

I LOVE YOU (bright-1) is a vibrance-boosting PSD for brightly lit scenes. it utilizes gradient maps to tone done magentas while maintaining warmth.

FEVER (gentle-1) is a warming PSD that utilizes levels & exposure layers to boost contrast, best for under-saturated scenes.

MIKROKOSMOS (natural-1) is a contrast-boosting, basic PSD. nothing too fancy here - use as a base or on its own for a slight boost!

CLOVER (warm-1) is a low-contrast, warm tone PSD best for bright & cool-toned scenes. adjust the gradient map or remove it for other types of lightings.

PUMA (glow-1) is a warming & enriching PSD for those washed out, cool-toned scenes. gradient maps & levels add depth & contrast.

CINEMA (gentle-1) is a no-frills PSD similar to MIKROKOSMOS, but with lower contrast to give more versatility and a natural glow to your scene.

‘So everything sucks’ mental health toolkit

Hello everyone, I lost half my family last year between March and November, three of whom were elderly, and it was Not Much Fun Actually BUT I have had the horrible thought that many people this year are going to be in the same boat I was in in 2019, so here is how I coped:

Write everything down. I mean it. Anything you’re feeling; the grief, the worry about their health, how much you love them. Put it down on paper. Exorcise it. Don’t just let the bad feelings and the sadness fester. It doesn’t have to be exquisite poetry, just catharsis. 

Call your relatives! Especially the elderly ones. After the first 3 bereavements I got much closer to my grandma. Her passing wasn’t made harder by the fact of having spent more time speaking to her; it was eased because I knew that she knew how much I loved her. 

BE SENSIBLE. You want to see your family now. I get it. My uncle was given 3 weeks to live and I caught norovirus. I couldn’t see him for a week. It sucked. But I had to stay at home, because if he caught it, he’d die. Covid-19 is the same principle. Phone them instead. 

Talk to your family and friends about how you feel. Grief is a really, really lonely place sometimes. I didn’t know anyone going through what I was going through. This time, we’re all in it together. Share your feelings. Reassure each other that you’re valid and heard. 

Be kind to yourself. There’s going to be days, especially with all this social upheaval, where you just can’t. This is OK. You’re a human who has worth beyond your productivity. Let yourself feel sad if you have to. Eat a bit of chocolate. Have a bath. Then do the laundry.

Keep being human, in all the ways you can. Keep cleaning the house. Get up every morning and get dressed. Go to bed at a sensible time. Eat healthy, regular meals. Keep yourself strong, not just in case you get the virus, but to remind yourself that you can and will endure. 

As clichéd as it is, remember that you have survived everything in your life up to this point. You can get through this. There will be a time when it’s over. I thought 2019 would never end. It was funeral after funeral. I thought I wouldn’t make it out the other side. I did. 

Check in with people and ask them to check in with you. My friends literally got me through 2019, even though I wasn’t always up for seeing them in person. We phoned and texted. Build a support network. Being socially isolated doesn’t mean being lonely. 

I think that’s pretty much it, but a final reminder that we humans can endure so much more than we think we can, even when it feels like it’s relentless and it will never stop. It will. The only way through it is, well, to go through it. I hope everyone is staying safe and well!!
