FanArt: War of Genesis III

[Sagasu]

Some game or another, I have no idea. I decided to try my hand at some of the concept art from it, so the lines from which the color was born are not mine, but belong to Hyung Taekim.

My Coloration (http://freespaces.com/bodyofsoul/hyungpractice.jpg)

Not sure what else to say, besides that I still kinda prefer the uncolored ver. It took a long time, just hope I've learned enough from it.

url for the lines amended

original picture not fount, 404 error

as per your coloration, very good, though a tad bit bright (at least for me.) The eyes are well done, but your shadowing seems to be done in groups of only three to four shades. I can not tell if that is intentional or not. For my closing statement... is that a Hello Kity hanging from the hilt >_>?

Looks it. I like the coloring style. May I ask what program you colored it with?

Sexy! o.o Wow, thats nice. You did a nice job coloring it. It deffently looks like something off a game. I colored one I didnt asked permission before and it was ok. (even though I was using an old paint program and it looked like a cartoon from the 90's).

If you see something you like to paint, guys, Try asking before painting-If you can. if you cant, just hope for the best and atatck the white space. Just hope they dont fight back. O.o

I like it. I think it loses alot of the value it once had in color. It just seems a little flat in color.

-Hello kitty? I believe so.
-Program? Adobe photoshop 6.0
-Bleached out simplistic shading? Well, I guess what I was aiming for didnt quite hit the mark. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Just will have to do better next time.

I realize that she's from another game, but she looks a lot like a RAmarl. I think I've seen a similar coloring style somewhere before; the people at the message boards for the webcomic Megatokyo sometimes CG the artist's lineart, and some of it comes out like that.

I think the "flatness" effect comes from the clearly defined borders between shades of the same color. For instance... near where that armor part on her right leg (her left, our right) meets the rest of her clothing at her thighs. You can see exactly where it changes from white to purple, and from purple to dark purple. The gradient needs to be smoother; the shading on her left forearm (her right, our left) is a good example of what I'm talking about.

Regardless, it still looks pretty cool, even if that wasn't the style you were going for.
