  My comic color conundrum!Dec 08, 2012 12:06 AM PST | url
 
Added 1 new A* page:Man, color! I think my coloring brain cells are blown out now. =P
 
Today's page comes from a scan of the artwork, rather than a photo. I tried a photo at first, but this was about as close as I could get to getting it legible:

had a lot of blur and fuzz that was nagging at me. It's got that cool natural lighting gradient, though. Hm! Gar! I think I'm gonna go have a weekend of doing non-coloring stuff. ;|
 
So what do you think of all this coloring hoohah? Should I stick with this or that, or none of the above? Lemme know! You can message me by email, Twitter, Facebook, etc etc--all those links are under the "about" link on the site's top menu.
