I’ve looked at this a bunch of times now… and it doesn’t look like digital color. I’m not a hater of digital color either… but if you hadn’t said “digital color” I would have assumed it was hand/painted color.
This is a combination of digital and original art. My goal with digital art is that it not look digital. So a portion of this is original art, and a portion of this is digital painted art.
A lot of digital comic art looks the same to me, and I am trying to avoid that look.
I would say you succeeded then. (Note I avoided saying “with flying colors” 🙂 )…
I keep threatening to do the opposite. By which I mean… draw something on the computer, but color it by hand. I’m strangely better at drawing on the computer than by hand BUT better at coloring by hand than on the computer.
I feel sooo old now. I still use my oils, waters, and pencils crayons. I soo suck at digital that I am in awe of those who do. This work is absolutely the tripping best. Totally groovy man.
That is so nice of you to say! I am not a skilled digital artist. I have very little knowledge of the programs, and a lot of what I do is all hunt and peck. However, I think I get better digital results than I do with hand painting, simply because it’s incredibly easy to get airbrush effects or fix mistakes!
