Adventures in color!

I think it will have become obvious looking at the last few pictures Ive submitted on DA, I have been working on my coloring skills.

My Latest Adventure in color! This took a little while. but im pretty proud of it, really working on my color matching, saturation and temperature to turn the figure.

Just a side thought, does anyone know of a place where i can find line art to practice on? i know there are ton's of artist's on DA but most of them only have a small file size. I'd love to find some bigger stuff to work on. preferably nice clean professional inks.

Score dude! I went to Nei's Live Stream, and wow, it's like taking a seminar, she goes so fast, but you learn so much...

Can't wait to see what you do next!

it's pretty wicked to watch Nei livestream when she colors. Just to see the process as a comic reader

Russ Platt has always been willing to have people color his work, and will send hi-rez inks on request.

Of course, his stuff tends to be NSFW, so... *cough* Yeah.

D'OH! I shoulda thought of that! Thank you for the reminder Soul! most of his stuff does tend to be NSFW, but I do have a piece that is SFW and I haven't gotten it colored yet: Hericane by rplatt. If you wanna try it out I have the large HR inked file he sent me. Just holler

I found a couple of artist's by asking around on DA one of which was Jonathan Glapion who up until fairly recently worked on batman, and is still an Inker finisher for DC, I think he worked on final crisis aswell... He has High quality lines for Aspiring colorist's to practice on on he's Website.

that being said I'd be more then happy to Put The herri picture in my to color Folder

Coming along bloody ace, Ed-swan!

I had to double-take at it for a moment there (and not for my usual reasons, which I didn't even THINK of until later in the thread. Much to my embarrassment), because of just how well it was done. Excellent use of colors.

EDIT: Also mildly disappointed it took me this long to get around to saying something. Stupid lurk habits. D:

sounds like a plan for me. just note me in dA or Pm here or what not whenever and I'll send ya the link to the inked file.

Very slick, very professional work. :O

did this for a little bit of a jam that goes on with a couple of Aspiring colorist's over on Da where a picture is picked then they all color, so this was my take

Spawn

and...

The only other Entrant so far

IMO, yours has it hands down so far. Great job!

Yup. The other one, while nice, isn't dark enough.

Now that I am home, I was able to really take a much closer look at Spawn and the other one. And I can honestly say that yours, E. Swan, is by far out of this world!

Very cool, I like how you added the fire at the bottom, really makes the picture pop.
