"Captain?"

Heeyyy, look what I finally finished coloring! This, in addition to two non-TS drawings, has been my main coloring project for the last several days. I've also been very busy with something else (more on that later) so it's taking me longer to get things done. This is a scene from Brahma Bear's fan fiction "No Time for a Hero" (read here: www.fanfiction.net/s/12733681/… ) and was one seriously traumatic and emotional part to say the least. The whole chapter hit me right in the feels. Sorry, no spoilers -- you know what to do! This picture was done a little differently in that I didn't use any inks (or digital shading) on Kit. I wanted him to be blurry and transparent... he's a figment of Karnage's mind in this scene, after all. I (very lightly) colored "through" him and added the clouds so I wouldn't darken his eyes too much. I was also going for a night time effect but if you'd like to see an alternative "day time" version, here: sta.sh/0hm23v21ag3  

Now let me apologize for the lack of art in the last week. The annual "100 by Summer Dog Walking Challenge" started on Wednesday and I've been a little obsessed with hiking... especially since the weather has been nice! I've walked over 33 miles already. The goal is to hit 100 by the first day of summer, I usually end up doing about 500. That said, I'm working to find some balance. Drawing and hiking with my dogs are my two biggest passions and they're equally important to me.

Thank you! It was a very traumatic and emotional scene so I tried to capture that.

Ooohhhh nooooo....! Although I know what's really going on here that puts an entirely new perspective on this picture. Damnit Thanos. XD

Wow! You leave me impressed! That effect you did with Kit as a ghost it's AWEEEEEEESOME!

The scene looks sadder! Poor Don Karnage!

Thanks! I'm actually happy with how Kit turned out and might try some more ink-free coloring soon. Yeah, my heart was absolutely shattered for poor ol' Karny in that chapter. ;A; Not sure if you've seen it but The Reckoning happens shortly before this scene. Intense stuff, great story!

"No helmet, no pads... tsk.  What made ya think you could skateboard, anyway?"


You did a bang-up job on the effect of Kit looking transparent; I'd say all your forethought in how to put it together paid off splendidly!  The overall background conveys an appropriate glumness (love that sky, too), and look how wrecked Karnage is, wow and ouch.  As the sky pirate crew would say, "Faaabulous!"  Thank you, once again, for a fic pic.   Good luck on your hikes!

Haha, that put a funny image in my head of Kit dressed as Max (Goof Troop) with a skateboard instead of an airfoil.

Thanks! I'm actually pretty happy with how Kit came out here, kinda makes me wanna experiment with more ink-free coloring. I wondered if I went a bit overboard with the blood but then again there was a lot of it. Especially after seeing The Reckoning -- I think it's safe to say that was the worst day ever for ol' Karny.
