Re-coloring Card Cheat
Posted in Work » Card Cheat on June 25, 2009 at 3:52 PM
So, like everything with the Card Cheat, Marc and I are working to make it the best that it can be. I was becoming more and more unhappy with my coloring on the first couple of pages, so I decided to start again from the ground up.
The entire book is going to be based on the original 124 colors that colorists used pre computer coloring. A nice 'limited' palette that helps us focus on mood and create really great effects. Limited only in that I don't stare blindly at the entire Photoshop palette anymore. I have a nice set starting point to create a rhythm from.
I've become a bit obsessed with the coloring in 70s and 80s European comics, so that's probably going to leak through a bit.... ok a lot.
