Toranoshi's Coloring Box

[toranoshi]

Hey all
Thought I would start a thread of my own to show some of the color work that I am doing. My Shi piece is already up in Kiku's topic, so here is the Epic piece I have been working on.

Nice crisp colors.

[toranoshi]

Thanks.
Here is my Pop Art version of She Hulk. I am working on a regular version of this as well.

[toranoshi]

And here is a version with more light and shadow work plus a background

And here is my color work on Red Sonja. Art by Tommy Patterson.

I like the second Shulkie better.  The orange sky makes the figure's color pop more.  The yellow was annoying.

Red Sonja is blonde?  Otherwise, nice coloring.

[toranoshi]

Thanks Chuck,
It is not "officially" Red Sonja, so I had to go with a more strawberry orange color to the hair.

[pctchuck]

That's okay, I can live with strawberry blonde.  Tried to get my wife to go that direction in the past, but her hair is naturally a little darker blonde, and wouldn't take the red highlights well.

Here is the amended version of the first Shi pic that I did. I added snow and steam effects as well as changing some colors around.

And here is an old school Superman Red Blue Panel.

very good job on the Hulk

[toranoshi]

Thanks Delvie,
I have a page I am working on now from Code Zero, where I snuck in a cameo by Shi. I should have it up in a few days.

Code Zero Page art by Jim Hanna. I snuck in a Shi cameo into the last panel.

A boy's got to have a little fun every now and then.

No Shi Cameo This Time. Camelot Prep by David Hahn. Colors by me.

From the comic issue 28, I have a nurse Harley Pin up I am working on also:

All three version of the Iron Man #131 cover recreation by Bob Layton:

My favorite piece that I have done so far. Art by Francesco Fracavilla. I added in the Poison Ivy motiff.

[pctchuck]

Really liked the Mary Jane, but the red of the costume and the red of her hair bled together, also think that the dark seatee or whatever she is kneeling on blends in with the red/black of the shoes.
Liked the grey hulk best.  Everything works pretty good on this picture.
Harley looks good, but again the dark red tends to bleed into the black in the costume.  The green background works nidely.

[toranoshi]

Thanks Chuck.

[pctchuck]

Just my humble opinions, good or otherwise.  Not meant to be negative, but constructive.

[toranoshi]

I really appreciate the feedback. The only way that I am going to get up to professional snuff on this is by having feedback from various people. That way I can look at the image and see what really worked and what did not.
