Color test


(click image to enlarge)

Here's a quick color experiment I did using a panel from an upcoming issue of The Marvels Project. That's the original Union Jack fighting in the trenches during WWI. Strangely enough, despite all the digital painting I've been doing over the past few years, I don't think I've done any coloring of black and white line art. It's something I'd like to try to do more of.

Thank you Patrick.

Francesco - I'll admit your GI Robot piece was the first thing I thought of when I was reading this panel description in the script. I made sure not to go back and look at it though because I didn't want to copy it. :)
You should know though, that EVERYTHING you do inspires me!
