Weee! Coloring!
« on: March 13, 2009, 05:28:01 pm »
I feel young again...

Out of boredom, (while recovering from surgery) I decided to start coloring a few MegaTokyo comics.

Only have one in the works right now... but I'm enjoying myself and thought I'd start updating you all with what's going on.

Original:


Progress so far:
  • First (~20 minutes)
    I'm kinda coloring a bit, then shading a bit, and going back and forth.
    So... the shading isn't done everywhere... I know. (shading the hair is a BITCH)
  • Second (~30 minutes)
    Not much to say...
  • Third (~40 minutes)
    A lot of clean-up done, a bit of recoloring, more shading done, and a bit more colored.
    Nope, not done yet.
  • Fourth (~1 hour)
    Not happy with how this is turning out... >_<
  • Total (so far): ~150 minutes


I'll be updating at every checkpoint I deem reasonable.
Umz... you like, yes?

(Reserving second post for archiving...)
Taking a break from the first coloring to do a quick one that matches EXACTLY how I've been feeling.

Just read the text box. ^_~
(Oh, and she is Piro's conscience and she's standing on his head, hence the "blonde ground".)

Original:


Finished:


Yeah... I know... the hair... I fiddled with it too long, IMO.
Oh... and I just noticed that I rushed the background. Sowwy... I might fix it soon-ish.
(Total coloring time: ~40 minutes... freakin' hair...)

Haha, thanks.
It's my first time ever doing anything like this either...
I just randomly had an urge to do something 'artistic' and I can't draw very well... (plus I am addicted to MegaTokyo) so I decided to do some coloring. =D

Thanks guys. ^_^

Not her mouth. More of a 'cheek paint', kinda like indian war paint in a way.
Her mouth doesn't exist in that picture. =P

Well, I have more progress on the first one... but I'm not happy with it... >_<
I'll upload anyway.


Rawr... the background is proving to be impossible for me...
Also, I've actually started working on Nyaar again so I'm not coloring near as much.
