Beautiful, but has nothing to do with Bizenghast, so we can't allow submission. Great work though!(:

Gorgeous work. Love that color work; it enhances the pic but doesn't overwhelm the line art.

Thanks! I don't color a lot, but this was a paying gig so spent the time to try and do my best on it. I'm pretty happy with the results!

Beautiful! I'm assuming you did the lines in ink. How did you color it?

DavidAyala In reply to space-aged [2011-11-02 15:49:18 +0000 UTC]

I have an old version of Photoshop for colors. Nothing fancy, I just turned the black lines to a deep purple and filled in other areas as necessary using the "darken only" setting on my brush.
