So...how'd I do?

Oh my god, are you serious? You really think it looks almost as good as Arania's own color work?

I don't know if I can agree since I don't feel like I'm anywhere to close to someone like Arania, but thank you so much anyway! I'm immensely proud of this second attempt, and to hear someone liken it to a skilled artist's color work (enormous praise in my book), that just motivates me to try even harder and keep with it. Thank you again! I'm glad you like it.

Four hours of my time definitely well spent.

Next up is Sasha's Relapse Part 2. I'm not quite as fond of this one, as I feel like I didn't do as well a job as my 2nd attempt (Sasha 1). I got off to a bad start and made the mistake of altering my line art layer instead of my duplicate layer, and I feel like that muddied the entire pic a little.

The carpet effect still bugs me too.

But, practice makes perfect I suppose. What do you think? Is this one on par with my last two attempts? Better? Worse?

*Adding the line art and the colored versions.

Back again, with another colored piece of artwork.

The line art is once more all Arania's.

This time around, I thought I'd take a shot at placing an image onto a background (painstaking work, btw), and I added a few bells and whistles (cuts, smoke smudges, some glow effects, ect).

I'd already colored Kore's Folly a while back using traditional means, but I thought I'd see how it stacks up against a digital attempt.

Would love your input. Am I doing better or worse? This is my fourth outing and I'm hoping that with each one, I'm getting progressively better.

So, I had neatoflamingo (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/neatoflamingo/) over on FA do a little TF line art sequence for me, so that I can do a little more practicing with digital coloring.

I decided to just stick with some flat colors for now, but I've also included a version that has some sfx (moonlight radiance and glow).
