Another "let's see how different colourists approach a piece" type deal that brought about as an exercise.

I don't know if this piece was ever coloured by anyone else, but I liked where Rich wanted to go with this one. His idead was to colour this as though Daredevil is waiting for the night to come, with a red sky as though the sun is setting and twilight is on its way. So, I decided to go with that.

I was going to do a red on red type piece to show, yeah, it can be done (look at my Bettie Demon piece in my gallery, totally red on red), but instead decided to play more with lighting and instead use cyan on the main figure. You still get the feeling that Daredevil's costume is red, but now he is definitely separate from the background and they piece looks more dynamic. After almost finishing this, I realized Adam Hughes had done something similar with some pieces of his, but used red and green. Cool.

Anyway, I'm sure some parts of this could be done better. I did add some texture to the chimneys/bricks (a total +!). BUT I'd like to hear what you guys think.
