EDIT: Good news, everyone. This poster is, in fact, for sale and can be purchased here.

Check this site out for more Martian-related things! ^^

:bulletblue: Greetings, guys!

:bulletblue: Azim Akberali was asked to draw a cover for Mark Starks’ Martian one day. Suddenly, a colourist was needed, so he asked me to step in… et voila! ;B

:bulletblue: This was quite interesting and fun to work on; the monochrome-shaded inks were different from what I was used to. The dragon was great fun to colour, but I wish I’d done his skin better; Azim’s art suggested little speckled scales which I attempted to continue into the skin’s lightest part by having some of them reflect the light. In their current state, they look a bit messy.. perhaps I should make a custom scales brush! :3

Enjoy!
~Yel.

:bulletblue: Photoshop 5 hours.

Done just well, Yel.

Thank you kindly! ^_^
It's supposed to have that 'John Carter of Mars' cover feel. :3
I am beginning to think the colours are a bit too garish... but peeps seem to enjoy this. ^_^ <3 Thanks, Cheesy.

Do you know what's great about this,(apart from seeing two of my mateys collab on a fantastic piece of art...totally unexpected!) its that your styles are independantly recognisable.

Kudos!

Hay, Si-si.
Thank you kindly. Interesting observation about being 'independently recognisable'. :3 Suppose, you're right. ^^
I do enjoy working with all the OUC peeps; everyone is awesome for their unique reasons. Hopefully, us two will have a chance to work on another collaboration or two. ^_^ <3

P.S. Had another look at Azim's art, his colours are so natural and gentle.. not like my heavy-handed pow-wow ones. X3 Note to self: tone it down. X3

<3 Ta for looking and commenting!

Azim's colours are muted, subtle watercolours whilst yours are bright and zingy computer tones, but its what you do and how you do it, that makes you 'independently recognisable'!-)


You're welcome, Matey!
