whats your process for coloring night/atmoshpheric scenes with different colors affecting the environment/ background.

I see some people putting on a filter, ie blue filter for night, whereas others draw the colors themselves, understanding how they would react, and while it may not technically be right, it often looks better, ie characters not being affected as much as the background to stand out more

Draw it in grayscale, then fuck around with gradient maps. Actual pro tip 4 u

As with everything. It depends entirely on what your goal is. Slapping a filter on causes a kind of flattening but quickly developed a colordpace and pallete for you, which you can touch up and refine. It's a lot faster and a more typical digital workflow. People who paint all the colors themselves based off their knowledge of material properties and color theory, might do so because like you said, they want to have more control over certain aspects of the image, or just don't want to use a typical digital workflow. What matters most is what you want your painting to indicate with its mood.

I put a dark blue multiply layer on top of the drawing.

You have to dark mode max and become a creature of the night. Until you become a literal vampire with night vision.
