Lineart [link] : :iconscuter:
Coloring: me

~Scuter drew amazing lineart of his original characters Vudok and Thunder Beast. It was full of details and I was so afraid I would ruin them... I haven’t found if there is such ability in Gimp that I could move only lines to one layer so I had to put whole picture undermost and color over it. I tried to use thin color layers so that original lines would show through them as much as possible.

Because there were lots of details I wanted to use only few colors so the picture wouldn’t end up looking too restless. Of course I chose my favorite colors; purple and bluish green! ;)
(And as you can see there is also some brown and grey for trees, stones and Vudok’s armor.)

I’m happy how this came out and I hope Scuter likes the result too! :w00t:

EDIT: See Scuter's colored version here: [link]

Wow! This is fantastic! I really love the colors. The armor looks awesome and I love the tough texture on Thunder's skin. Vudok's face looks pretty creepy too. Thanks so much for coloring this! It's fantastic!

You're very welcome. It's so nice to hear that you are pleased! :bow:

I came up with an idea to do some textures on Thunder's skin when I already had colored everything else. I thought it would need some extra attention! :heart:

What do you like about background coloring?

If you can't learn to do it well, learn to enjoy doing it badly.

Reality can be beaten with enough imagination.

Thank you so much!

Yep, I think that Scuter has done great job with Thunder Beast's design and especially how its mouth looks like! :D
