Description My entry for the #color-me-club contest for August.

This was a ton of fun to color, and it gave me an excuse to play around with different schemes that I might not normally work with.

I was also inspired by the sunset I saw the other day as far as the clouds go. Quite the case of perfect timing!

Very good. Looks like watercolor. The sky is amazing, lots of shading here, and the orange on the feathers is spectacular!

This looks excellent. Like professional level coloring. I like the soft lighting and the background is so pretty. Those clouds look like real clouds.

The coloring looks really professioal. You could probably get a job being a colorist for comic books if you wanted to!

I agree. You know, in all seriousness, if you can color like this all the time maybe comic coloring is a career you should look in to!

And if you ever colored the goddamn Batman, I'd have your babies. You know, if I had ovaries.

Thank you for always being so incredibly supportive of my art. I saw the post on facebook, too.

Batman, eh? I've never been much of a fan, but I might add that to my project list, just for fun.
