Description
it's the second (and final) version of this one, and I feel kinda lame that I've not drawn anything in so long that this has followed directly after the pencil sketch version. I should scrap the pencil sketch to make myself look less lame, but I kinda can't decide which one I like better.Cobra Starship; they're a band, I don't own them, they kind of own themselves.

I remember when I was looking at this earlier I had something that I that was really awesome I was going to say and then for some reason I never commented and now I've forgotten what it was.
I'm cool.
I like how the black on top is all flat and opaque and you made the pencil red and you can see the hair-shading on some of them and not others and etc. Did you also do like a transparent red over in some parts, or that just the color-changed pencil? If none of that makes sense I'll try again to articulate my thoughts. I know so many technical terms I'm so professional and understandable. 8) I'm also a big fan of the speech bubbles and how the text fits into them all nicely.
And I really like the background color it's like lime green that someone left out in the sun too long.

(I think I might be winning at 'epicly long time to reply to comments'; I put this in a folder, because I was all 'heeey, I'll put the comments I need to reply to most importantly in these new folder things, then I'll TOTALLY do it. ha ha ha. yeah, that worked so well. I'm sorry, I am so hopeless at DevArt. BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS SO MUCH <3, they make me smile, every time.)
I did this entirely in boring grey pencil, then in photoshop I made it red (with an overlay-layer of red (or a screened layer? i can't remember)) then multiplied it and so it's red-ness is entirely determined by the colour underneath. The darker the colour, the darker the red in the line-art is. (I'm pretty sure that's what you were asking, not sure I've explained it well though, ah what can you do?)

<3 the restrained palette. You can do both this and crazy seizure-inducing bright, whereas lots of people sort of fail at both.

you ain't no hollaback boy?
haha thankyou, colours are my favourite, I usually get ridiculously carried away with them, but well, I decided I was going to limit myself to five colours for this, as a challenge. (It was originally only 4, but well, I needed to have a 5th, it was getting unbalanced with just four blocks of colour.)

Oh! And crits? If you wanted any...
It seems like the facial features are out of line/position on the faces themselves. :3 But only a few, like the nose on the furthest top rightiest guy. And maybe the eyebrows on the middle guy below.
But it could just be me~ it's lovely anyway :3

yeah, I think you're right. (way too late to fix anything, but I'll keep an eye out for things like that next time!) -> I had a lot of trouble sort of getting them to look like the people they're supposed to, so yeah, there was a lot of reworking and erasing and I think I may have stopped paying so much attention to things being ... properly centred? (but it's awesome that you noticed, really, thank you, I'll do better next time <3)

I love your style. :3 Great faces every time. So you sketched this on paper, scanned it in, and then painted over it? :3 Sounds awesome. Sounds like it also makes life easier... I should give it a shot one day.
Great color choices, by the way. I'm not a huge fan of the band, but that's only because I haven't been exposed to them much. :3

speep In reply to SkeletalWings [2008-08-13 23:59:48 +0000 UTC]
scanned it in, made a red layer and set it to overlay/screen/can't remember, merged it with the pencil layer (changed the colour) made that layer "multiply" and then painted UNDER it. (would be how I did it, in detail)
and haha, I kinda love their stupid faces (have a dorky film clip; [link] ) but hey I don't love you any less for not being a huge fan, you're still way awesome <3 and thank you for the comments (is about to reply to the one below TOO!)
