Sweet mother...What do you color all your stuff with? It looks so awesome...I wish I had that coloring talent you have going on there!

photoshop, no frills.
color with a mouse.

i guess my 'secret' is to be REALLY picky about flatting in the colors--make sure your base palette is really smart and strong.

I love the finished article. Your Strange looks a lot rougher than the original - like he'd be good in a fist fight as well as magic. Lovely colours too.

You could emphesize (and maybe define) even more the pure rawness of the "magic fields"; it would totally suit the rest of the coloring, which is already sketchy

I friggin love that color scheme. That otherworldly mix of pink and purples is exactly how I think Strange's world/land/magic dimension/whatever should look.

thanks so much, man!


i agree.
and it should look like PAINT.

GarryHenderson [2009-07-07 03:00:47 +0000 UTC]

Crazy style Dave, but I dig it. There's a weird tangent going on with the sash that drops behind the folded leg. On a quick glance it looks like that purple background area shoulda been the inside of the cape since it flows almost exactly the same as that edge of the cape.

davechisholm In reply to GarryHenderson [2009-07-07 03:03:32 +0000 UTC]

i think i see what you are saying...the yellow belt thing? has the same contour as the edge of the cape...so...gotcha.
it doesn't bug me too much, but totally thanks for the heads up!


i love comments like this one!

GarryHenderson In reply to davechisholm [2009-07-07 03:06:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, an easy fix would be just to taper that belt/sash to the left/right or make it shorter. I only notice that kinda stuff on colored stuff. Dunno why. I can never spot it in b&w lineart

davechisholm In reply to GarryHenderson [2009-07-07 03:11:48 +0000 UTC]

yeah...gahh i color with a mouse and my wrist is killing me...i can't fix it...blehhhhhhhhh
thanks though--you are the man for the help. i don't want you to think that i don't appreciate it.

thanks so much for the fave, man.

Ugh, I remember coloring with a mouse. It was like scribbling with a bar of soap.

And no worries man, I didn't think that at all. Yer welcome bud.
