I decided to try teaching myself how to color. I'm not very good, but it was fun to do . Take a look!
Drawing: Not by me. Colors: by me. I wish I still knew who drew it. I think I found it on DA. If I figure it out, I will credit!

Great work, actually. I would recommend working a little more on blending a couple of the shadows, but that's about it.

Thanks . I'm basically self taught, so it's a process.Angelique wrote:Great work, actually. I would recommend working a little more on blending a couple of the shadows, but that's about it.

I'd actually say the opposite and that there's too much blending going on. Good idea of where the highlights should go, but they are all blurry which gives everything a kind of same-y texture. I think it works pretty well on his skin (fuzzy) but I'd go for sharper contrast in the hair and less reflective pants.Angelique wrote:Great work, actually.

I totally agree with you. The hair was a challenge, and I find myself afraid to underblend, so I tend to overblend.The Drastic Spastic wrote:I'd actually say the opposite and that there's too much blending going on.
