My humble attempt at colouring.

[IndigoPrime]

Mr Dribbles - there's no reason why not. Just keep on practising. (Bear in mind that I've been using Photoshop for about eight years now, although for various different things rather than just colouring. I've no idea about Ratty, but I'm assuming he's well-versed in the relevant software, too.)

Oddboy - I never saw that thread, and I do realise that, like Yeowell, Jock is an artist whose work is visually striking in b/w. However, when practising with colour you need to work with various different styles, and Jock's is interesting to work with. Also, it's subjective whether someone's work looks *better* in b/w or not (and, no, I'm not suggesting my coloured effort is ahead of the original?I'm just stating that people have different opinions, and might also point out that it's rather harsh to yell at people just for doing some colouring on a thread about... colouring).

[Oddboy]

Like I said, was just joshin'!

[IndigoPrime]

Oh, you scoundrel.

Oddly, I'm currently having fun colouring artists who tend to work best in b/w (such as Frazer's infamous Death pic).

I'm not pretending to be a colourist in any degree, what i've done is more graphicy any, especial as i've made it look (kinda) like a tooth coverhttp://img78.photobucket.com/albums/v297/Connexus/TOOTHCOVER.jpg">

Dribbles: That is nice, would you like a scan of the original page, sans lettering to have a go at?

Here's my attempt at the cover.

Had to reduce it some, it was massive!http://img44.photobucket.com/albums/v135/eldospinks/koburn2.jpg">

Just out of interest, had you seen Carlos' coloured version before you did that?

[Mr D]

I've just finished a stronty piece. I'll post it on a seperate thread though, so as not to get in the way of the cover pics.

[Misanthrope]

Nope. Haven't got the meg yet, and this was black and white when I received it.

[Noisybast]

Cool. It's not a milion miles away, to be honest.
A bit "flatter", with less lighting detail, but it's definitely a good start. Keep it up!

[Richmond Clements]

Okay.
I might as well join in. Here's my first ever attempt at using gradients etc.http://img33.photobucket.com/albums/v101/rac11/jockdredd.bmp">

S'a bit small...

[Richmond Clements]

Why is it small..?

[Conexus]

[Richmond Clements]

Okay then!
