The color was just a scary proposition, and took me FOREVER to get to the point where I was liking it. I think it turned out okay; but I'll definitely need to get a little more proficient before I go doing it on any kind of regular basis, though
Thanks a lot, man.
Second, the stuff looks kick ass. Love the first panel on this page with the bar interior. I admire the hell out of your "world building" (I think that's what the comic-artist-kids are calling "setting the scene" these days) because you make it look so effortless and this is something I always struggle with.
Third of all, the pose you've got on that chick looks so cool and natural. Almost reminds me of something out of an early 80's Jaime Hernandez comic.
Fourth, your coloring looks fine and dandy. The color choices are simple and sensible. Good and moody without gushing.
The only thing is, however you color it, remember to take it with a grain of salt, cause that is the one thing that ALMOST NEVER looks the same when it sees print. That's the absolute scariest thing about making color art for print, if you ask me. Just that maddening unknown variable, of exactly how the colors you see on your computer screen will translate to the printed page. It's one of those things few artists can ever predict. I sure haven't figured it out yet, all my printed color art so far has been off the mark from what I intended it to look like. Sometimes in an acceptable way but in a few, gut wrenching cases, not! Sorry, I wasn't trying to make you extra nervous about it, I'm just saying brace yourself for that!!!
Thanks for the nice crit, though. Good to hear.
