Hmm...I've got some recent line art if anyone wants to try:

You can see how I colored it here.

Figured I might as well post this since I've been playing around with different coloring styles and brushes. Some C&H fanart -

Here's RA's. I cleaned up the inks a bit and dropped her in a forrest background, if for no other reason than I simply enoy forrest backgrounds.

Oooh. Nifty sky and moon. Can't imagine KM skipping through town - that's a scary thought

Thanks, Townie. One of these days I'll get around to posting all this art in my fan section, just for fun - with everyone getting full credit for what they did, of course ^_^

Oh yeah, and I can't remember if I seconded the motion for this thread to be stickied. But I do. This thread really helped me get around some coloring artist's block. Either that or it just has to keep getting ressurected once in a while

Yeah, I know what ya mean. I've been meaning to slip the stuff I've done/stuff people've done to my work in my site's gallery, too. I'm just switching over to another gallery script and I haven't had a chance to play around with modding it

Here's a colored piece I promised someone on another forum.

I kinda spent the most time on the pieces of hair under the girl's chin .. then I realized how much time it was taken me ... and how much hair she had left. So I whizzed through the rest of it

BB: That goddamned awesome too! Man, man. The way you shade and light is setting my heart alight! Marry me!

Oooh! It's been a while since I contributed something to this thread!

I recently did this portrait of Lysanne:

I'd love to see anyone's take on this.

ps: Townie, that colour image rocks! How did you do that sketchy effect?

Townie · Post by **Townie** » Tue Nov 08, 2005 8:44 am

Sketchy? I mostly set the shadows with the gradient tool, then touched them up with a soft-edged brush and added a few highlights
