One more of these things...

So, I started making these pages in color... sort of. At first I was going for the usual darken/lighten overlay with a light-color and a shadow-color. That solution proved to make the colors way too flashy and bright, so I figured I should try what had been suggested for me earlier, and using the layers in Multiply- plus using a darker shade of each color separately to color the shadows.

I'd say the result is ok, but the techique is very time consuming- probably because of some practical issues like a lack of a good color palette made for this function and the constant overlap of the different shadow colors to each other's areas.

I'll need to work on this... a lot more.

Oh, and the page number is 41- I'm planning to make the rest of the pages in color. We'll see how I can flesh out the technique to allow for faster coloring.
