Original Lines - [link]
By ~Crimsonsea

Color - `vest

Doing another run on some lines of ~Crimsonsea. Fortunately, my work hours have been easing off, so I've gotten some time to get some more commissions out, too. So slots are fortunately opening up, and the rate of getting these out should increase back to the usual 2-3 per week.

This one's a continuation of a previous ~Crimsonsea image I colored, and both are characters of the same canon. While I normally try to attain a consistent style when doing characters of the same storyline, this time I wanted to do two radically different color styles between his two characters.

The other image can be found here: [link]

You'll notice that the other image uses a lot of white, cyan, and yellow. It's very pearly. This one's heavy with oranges and magentas, more golden, and the colors are less defined with the light taking greater precedence on the overall palette of the image.

I was originally going to strive for the look of the tavern in Megaton from Fallout 3...which when you think about it is also the interior of just about every other building. I really like how her hair turned out in this one, but that's mostly attributed to the line work ~Crimsonsea made; his lines did all the hard stuff with that.

Comments appreciated. Criticism honored.

Fallout 3 (c) Bethesda Softworks.
They just acquired id Software, which goes to show how incredibly large they are and how quickly they're expanding. So since I make a slight mention of Fallout 3 being an influence in the original approach, one can never be too safe when tiptoeing about the giants that legally purchased John Carmack's soul, God bless those handsome gents in DC.

I can't say I've seen a design quite like this one before. It seems to be a very nice cross between the wild-west and a techno genre of some sort. I like her form, not entirely barbie-like, and definitely in shape, just not like a stick girl with a well endowed chest.

The colors used in this also helps to give this picture more of an old west feeling, whether or not that just what you were going for, I am not sure, either way it looks great and it helps work with the colors that you used in her own design. Very well done ^^.
The Artist thought this was FAIR

:O :O :O :D :D I may have to go sit down for a bit Vest. I may pass out from awesome-color-related-greatness. You have nailed it with this. You could not have got the pallette more spot on with this. She's absolutely perfect. Mood, tone, lighting, scheme. Super-impressed. And I LOVE her burning amber eyes! Great touch. :) THANK YOU. Awesome surprise!

Glad you like it! I sometimes have those images where I find myself constantly revamping the color scheme repeatedly, just making that concerted effort to get every hue just right. But this image, it was all in my head before I even put a pixel on it, making this a rare 'got the lighting and color out on the first pass' sort of image.

Thanks very much for providing your lines!
