Here is my second coloriztion, and as you can see, there is a lot more to work with than with my first. It was a little bit complicated when it came to the eggs though, because I was trying not to use the same color more than once. With the exception of the giant egg that is off to the right of the screen, which I know is just plain ugly, I think I did a good job on the rest.

I believe I still need some more work on the shading. Lillymon's wings, which I'm sure most of us has by now realize is completely void of shading, is left as is because when I tried to add any shading to it, it came out ugly, so, believe me, it looks better this way.

Also, for those of us who are really good at noticing the small details about art, you will notice that around some of the objects that's been colored, there is a bit of uncolred, or miscolored areas. That's because I've been working on this picture so much, that, frankly, I have become somewhat bored with it. So, after a quick tidding up, I decided to leave what ever flaws I missed/could care less about to remain as is.

So, without anything more to say, I believe now is the time to show everyone the picture I've used three paragraphs to describe. Enjoy.

Hmmmm... interesting. Quite interesting.
The shading takes some getting used to, but aside from some "Where is that lightsource?" question, it is (technically speaking) not bad. Very fitting at some places, a bit on the odd side at other places (Considering the question quoted above).
Overall impression: I like it, it looks a lot more natural than your first one, and I can see some potential ready to pounce. :D

I just felt that the background is too simple.
Anyway nice pic.



Ruhe: What methods should I use to torture her? Wax? Whip? Dildo? Clamps? Fisting?

Bah, I always end up making my backgrounds a simple gradient... gray or something like that. heh
Back to the pic... who drew the original? Seeing distention it seems like something digimonsh would do.. heh. For the coloring, I see a big improvement from your last work. What do you use to color? Everyone does it differently... Also, you kinda have to define a light source for the pic... if 1 thing casts a shadow in 4 directions, you have a problem. It 'll make it look a bit odd. Great other than that.

I guess the reason for the "improvment" is because there was so much to take care of at once, where as for my first, all that had to be colored was one central figure. As for the light source, yes, I've done that in art one somewhat. We just got a few blocks of wood that were designed into different shapes (triangles, rectangles, a circle, ect.) and we tried to shade what we saw. The nad news, however, is that since I've only worked with what I see, that means I can't really add the correct amount of shade to something without first being able to see it.

If it was something easy like a light shining into someone's face, then, yes, I could handle that, but this? Phesh! Please!

This is why I keep... ummm... reference... errrrr... pictures... *COUGH*PORN*COUGH* on my drive... for reference purposes only of course! ^^;;;;;

Okay, silly jokes aside. It does help looking at reference pictures. Simple pictures of humans with light coming from different angles (male, female, dressed, undressed, doesn't matter that much). I sometimes browse through catalogues for clothing etc. One with a lingerie section does help, too. Or try looking for erotic art (No, that does NOT mean Porn! I mean real ART!). You'll find a lot of hard lighting there, as many photographers use lighting as an artistic tool. I admit that shading is damn tough, though *sighs*

I'm just starting to understand colorizations myself, so from my rookie perspective, I say "Nigh!!"

I think that means "good" or something.

Yep you should do something with that background.

For a sky you could use this i've done:


It's relly easy to create, and looks quite cool ;)
