Artist's Comments

*Updated* 01-16-06-- I corrected his skin color. I used a combination of 3 colors this time, instead of one flat color like before. I'm learning here folks! This is going to be offered as a print soon, *crosses fingers* so I decided to simplify the border as well. I think it was all "too much" before, and took away from the drawing itself. I also corrected his hair color, and changed the background and foreground colors too. Let me know what you think! :nod:
******************************************************
Well, here it is. Overall, I’m pretty happy with it. :nod: Some of you may say he needs more highlights in his hair, and I attempted to do that, but I’m limited to a mouse (no Wacom tablet) and I couldn’t get the effect I wanted. I just stuck with the highlights provided by the pencil work underneath.

I didn’t color his white suit at all. It’s just the color of the paper, so I was amazed that it would “pop” out so much as it does. :shrug:

On the wall behind him:-- All of their buildings are made with sand and dirt. (Unless they are rich and can get wood.) So I figured that when the bullets hit the wall they naturally would take some of the paint with it and you could see the sand-colored wall underneath. Let me know what’cha think!!! :excited:

Bllluuuuuueeee.....


Almost too blue. You might want to desaturate some of the colors just a little bit or add some lighter blues to the hair. Legato's hair was more of a light navy than a dark blue (just a bit of random rabit fan-ism -_-; ). Still, gorgeous and great job on the colors. Glad to see it :D

That's AMAZING. I still can't believe you did that with a mouse. The pencil version was breathtaking as it is, but this really brings it all together! I dont think you needed more highlights for the hair :shrug: It looks just right to me.

:hug: wonderful, amazing job.
