You should color it.

Thanks!
I will be coloring it as part of the project. I've already made a bunch of color studies on the computer, but I have to paint it in real life still. *strings up noose and waits to hang* XP

You should make a photocopy and paint that. D; The sketch is waaaaaaay too nice.
But yeah, photoshop would be really cool. I still say go ahead and paint it, then add some extra stuff in photoshop afterwards. That way you can get the color, texture, dimensionality, AND you get to play with the digital medium. C:
I can't wait to see it when it's done!

Yup, I was planning on the photocopy method. Barker showed us how to gesso it to the Illustration board so we can paint over it.
hahaha, oh wow, speaking of photoshop effects I have to show you the monstrosity I created while I was screwing around with my color studies. A hint, it's titled "MOR LENS FLARE!" and it made Aave want to disown me. XD
I'm really excited about this project too. I'm used to having to do self portraits, but not usually self portraits that are actually cool, and not just "whoopie I'm looking right at you and in a portrait type void." haha

That's a really cool concept I could see it becoming an awesome movie or novel. Though the computer sword is a little bit more far-fetched than the rest of the concept I really like it haha, awesome.

Thank you! Yeah, the sword was sort of a byproduct of me going, "hmmm... lets replace this tiny fake video rock-band guitar from my ref. photo with something more bad ass... hmmm... *looks over at current video game* GIANT SWORD! *looks over at laptop* ...with a computer!" It was going to have a container for snacks too, but I decided not to elaborate on that little detail.
