Take the Tour  |
Greetings, peeps! As Kapow! happened, Des Taylor treated us to a cheeky smokin' roller girl lineart. It was immediately agreed that yours truly should colour her. Gary Erskine whispered the suggestion of autumn colours and a park bench setting. My Rainbow Wrangler powers kicked in then and I went to play. Des works the cell-shaded look in his pieces, so I decided to keep that for the figure. The trees and bushes were all assembled using the humble lasso and fill method. It took quite a while, but the end result does give the poster a classic, 70's feel.

Thank you kindly.
It was great fun colouring Des' work. Roller Grrrls is attracting a lot of welcome interest.
Hope you're doing busily.
It is quite useful to see the lineart and colours side-by-side, as methinks, not as many people realise how much a colourist can add to the lineart.
And the colors!

Thank you, funky! Working as a colourist for four years really helps in sharpening your sense of colour. Also, I did a bit of photo research for autumn. Nature is the best inspiration. Not all trees shed their leaves at the same time, or even in the same colour, so there's freedom and variety in which colours you choose; helps to break up a bit of yellow and red with a touch of fresher green. ;B
Anyway! Tah!
