Added 1 new A* page:Colored this one a slightly different way, because after spending a long time getting color into it, kind of a purple grade, it seemed to me that it was just a bit too dull. Using a Hue/Saturation layer in Photoshop to explore different color combinations, I found a few I liked at least as well as the original. I couldn't really decide between them, so I decided I'd just throw them all in together, doing this by masking off parts of the two added Hue/Saturation layers with black gradients. Here's the original color, then the two Hue/Sat layers added in, with thumbnails of their alpha masks in the lower left corners to show how they were laid on; the first one shifted from purple to yellow, and the second one shifted back toward red, with some spots left behind as yellow highlights:
So we end up with this rainbow sherbet melange. Mmm...sherbet.
