Description
Found these inks on *JameLeeStone 's page. It was the right kind of moody lighting I was looking for to practice on. Tried several new things. Been learning a lot with just the last few pieces I've done(This is the first of them to be completed/posted). Others will come soon. The job is goin well. Also have a comic coming up I'll be paid for. 13 pages. So we'll see where that goes.Critiques would be AWESOME if you have the time. Let me know what you like and dislike. Like I said, I'm trying new things, so I wanna find out what works.
I had 5 versions of this, mostly just different hues for the background. I think the desaturated background looked best, so that's what you get.
So enough about me, how are you? Sorry if I owe you something. Mention it here and I'll do em in order of who comments first, right after the pic for Reese and Ana(I know, it's taking forever, stuck on the background
)UPDATE: Painted in the background this time instead of photo/clone stamp, and used the colors I wanted. It's pretty much exactly what I was going for now. Also fixed a couple spots I missed in flatting. So....again, critique away!

Next, you need one of Superman straight up POUNDING Batman.
Or maybe vice versa. . .

What do YOU think.
I'm a girl.
Who loves both Batman AND Superman.
Do you think I want to see them fighting?
I think not.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha. Well, the likelihood of them not fighting is very small. Ask somebody over at DC and there may be an issue of them pounding each other. Who knows.
So what have you been up to missy?

Great Pyrenees, Bull Mastiff, English Mastiff...dunno. Best I can think of. Maybe Newfoundland or a husky/newfoundland/wolf mix like mine.
And screw you. This convo is epic! We went from gay Batman/Supes to large dogs. Wait....this sounds like the worst porno ever.

And yes! I'd love a Bull Mastiff.

I was hoping you'd say yes, screw you. But whatever. If you'd rather have a bull mastiff that's fine. But don't be surprised when I tell on you out of jealousy.

Coloring the back ground really made the picture pop for me, good choice in color for it as well it gives it quite a epic mood
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's the mood I was going for from the beginning. I actually looked for lineart to match what I wanted to do colorwise. Then I couldn't get what I wanted out of the background. But it feels so good that I finally did get it right.
Glad you like it.

Great mood! Can't wait to see the other versions of this!
Only notes~ Bat's shoulder (minor) and more importantly YA DIDN'T SIGN IT YA KNUCKLEHEAD!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
My signature is my "rushed perfection" look.
So what specifically about the shoulder? Where I tried to accent the veins a bit and got sloppy?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No there is a white line between the "shirt" and the cape.
do you delete the whites or do you multiply the original layer to make them transparent, then coloring a lower layer? (if you use Photoshop that is?)
The Sloppy works! It's your style and it's got a nice charm to it!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, I don't try for sloppy, but it happens. It's mostly cuz I'm too lazy to double-check. I really should wait a day after I finish something to post it.
Anyway, I actually open the lines, then duplicate and set the new layer to multiply. Then I go to channels and ctrl+click rgb. That selects everything light enough that photoshop would consider white. Then delete it, so I still have the lines on multiply, but if I lock transparency, I can change the color of the lines. White layer underneath, and put my flats there. Then make selections and color above that. Effects over the lines. Usually 4-5 layers in total.
I dunno if you knew most of that or not, but that's how I do it.
And I see the line now. There's also a spot by the web/cape. I'll fix that tomorrow, probably clean it up all over.

Yeah I'm familiar with most of those techniques
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ha, ya. I might have to start doing bright orange instead of white, cuz I rarely use orange and there's no way to miss a strip of orange in your flats. Lol.
Haha, well maybe you can send one over to me, and I'll take care of it for ya.
I've never colored a pic someone else flatted before...o_O
