Description So this is page 7 off 1st issue of Street Fighter II Turbo (which is out now, BUY IT!)

I'm just posting it up as an example of how I'm a moron.
See, (A) was my first colour attempt, which was both fun and challenging to colour (light setting etc, lots of playing around). Re-read the script and realized that I had coloured it showing the wrong time of day (I'm a moron)
So yeah, There went a few hours work down the drain, fortunatly the flats were layed out and it was all about re-lighting.
(B) is how It was supposed to look like and how it was printed.

Thought I'd share this.

D'oh! Well at least as you said, you had the flats. So it wasn't a total waste.

I like A better, if it means anything.

I really dig the lighting on both (one looks very nice and warm while the other looks cold and sterile.)

Interesting to see such dramatic changes in how a page is perceived just from the lighting.

Good work! Shame on having lost the original one though.

Definitely like the first one a bit more. It added a great mood Like, a certain seriousness to the situation, idk.

Awesome job!

Lol, nice to know even the professionals fuck up from time to time. xD Still, it's cool seeing the same scene in two different types of lighting. Very interesting, and good job as always.

You should have told your bosses, "Re-write the story, this one looks better!" And then get fired for doing that.

But seriously, A looks a whole lot better, because of the reasons you mentioned: atmosphere, lighting, coloration. The red hue is much better than the blue one. Much, much better.

I see what you mean.. you're a moron really...... I'm just agreeing with you!
Tho this makes me realize that one of the part of painting that took long was the base colors... so I've been finding a way to speed it up!
In this case I see how important it is to do it separately! just in case something has to be changed!

Between the 3rd and 4th panel, there is a line connecting from the lower right corner of the 3rd panel to the ceiling of the 4th, don't know if that's part of the ceiling design or just an extra line.

On another not,e the envelope in the 4th panel reminds me of 'the king of fighters'.

Actually, your mistake can teach lots of other people (including myself) the importance of colouring for different times of the day. This is excellent work. No offense to the script....but it should've been during the day cuz it looks cooler.

Just a little critic : The decors look very bare an empty. A lack of personality maybe. Was that in the brief, or don't you like backgrounds much ? ^_^

theCHAMBA In reply to sykosan [2008-10-20 13:21:37 +0000 UTC]

yeah, it was mentioned by another commenter.
actually the reference of the office in question was really bare, and that was what I was following.
If i had seen the more recent version of the location (office) I would've added more detail.
I guess something to take note of in future issues.

I much prefer your original lighting. It adds a bit more atmosphere and a sense of drama to the scene than the harder-lit version that was required.

theRealJohnnyCanuck [2008-10-19 18:40:10 +0000 UTC]

"A" is way more dramatic. "B" looks like a job interview. Great colouring on both pieces. I'd take "A" in a vote.

Oh that's too bad, the coloring in A has a much more dynamic and moody feel to it. B feels a little too stark.
