Description Saw this on 's gallery and had to color it in.

This was really quick, and really sloppy. On the good side, coloring Tim's work really lets you open up and explore color and texture, and that's great because I'm really trying to get out of the cell shading thing, and explore a more painterly side to digital coloring.

I like it. What do you think?

i really dig this, Ben.
Honestly, I wouldn't have thought you colored this (i thought you were posting a commission he did for you, or something) hopefully that comes off like a compliment. I REALLY wish my brain worked on the painterly stuff, so it's REALLY cool to see somebody i know break outta the norm with something like this.

Wow, man, thanks!!! Yeah, I totally take that as a compliment.

Overall, I was just kinda bored witht the whole cell shaded thing, and really am just trying to experiment to see what works.

It's rather refreshing really.

You did a great job for a rough coloring. You chose an interesting yet simple palette and you brought the face to life. Good work.

Thanks, man. I almost made this a winter scene, but, the line work looked more like the Serrenghetti.
Thanks for the kind words!
