Original Lines - [link]

`vest

I crashed Photoshop on this four times. Now THAT is industrious wielding of the software!

This a set of lines submitted to the *color-me-club . Been a while since I did something from there, and it's way overdue...since, you know...I kinda run it and all. Yeah. That's not good ju-ju when the club's administrator doesn't take advantage of its services...that he spends hours a week providing for others. Anywho, I'm pleased with how this one turned out.

The detail that you put into this is amazing, absolutely beautiful. I have been meaning to submit some colours for a while now, but everytime you upload more lines I find a new project to start lol. Splendid work on both fronts, keep it up!

Well, in my early learning process (which I still consider myself in), I only finished about a third of the works I started. Many times, I would just experiment, try to get all the hard stuff out of the way. All the parts where skill was most necessary is very early on, and beyond that, it's just monotonous nitpickery. So don't worry about getting everything completed, lol. If you're only doing the first half of every image you try out, you're learning where it is most important.

First-class work as usual. Your shading really brings out the details of the striped fabric of the breastplate and the leather pants.

Thanks a bunch. Yeah, I really liked how the pants turned out in this one. It's the most simple element in the whole image, but it doesn't stand out as a "blank space" in a high contrast wardrobe design everywhere else.

Thanks a bunch, man! Taking a little break from the strenuous work? Wouldn't blame you. I've been kind of 'on break' ever since I got my last commissions all wrapped up, but hey, if you've got anything in the works I'll get on it.

I'm currently working on an image that one of your watchers made. He commented on one of my colors you uploaded in your gallery, really nice words, you referred him, and ever since I've felt he's been owed. That, and I'm desperately in need of a Wonder Woman appearance.

I thought I'd surprise him by doing his vintage-styled chic Wonder Woman image. [link]

i believe, it would have been better, if you'd have turned her head a bit more sideway. right now, I wasn't even sure, if that is a horn or just a gem on her tiara.

vest In reply to specs2 [2009-04-19 07:58:14 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, definitely a valid observation. While I didn't do the lines on this image, I will make it a point in my color to really refine objects that are directly facing the viewer so their volume is better defined. Thanks.

Thank you, glad you like the whole thing. I'm sure the hundred-or-so pixels along the vertical edges of the image also assumed you were speaking about them, too, so no worries on that.

Indeed, 'gentle' is a kind of feel I like for works like this. Thank you.

Great stuff man, the best I've seen so far of her. I love the color choices and the excellent attention to every detail. Love the two color tones in the pants and shirt sleeves! Great textures too.
I'm very pleased, this is excellent! Thanks a lot for coloring my lines!

Likewise. More than happy to pitch in on your awesome work. This one was quite fun to work on. In fact, when I crashed Photoshop, losing an hour's worth of work, I was so happy because that's one more hour of smiles at my disposal.

I know, I'm a little odd in the head.

I really like the job on this one. The color choices are warm and look like they could be actual fabric. Excellent transition from warm lighting to cooler tones in the bottom right third. If this screen wasn't such shitty quality I could say more, but alas.

Thank you very much. Eh, I'll make the next one a little more high-contrast for your ailing monitor.

You can't do squat, it's the settings. Somehow the image is all compressed like it's a jpeg.
