The voting on the last one hasn't ended yet but while we're
waiting let's start coloring another pic shall we?

I'm putting this up.. maybe it's to big, but since I'm going to color
this one anywayz why not turn it into a coloroff. So if you dun like
it for some reason post up another picture...

Deadline: 28 november

Who's in?

Pencils: Mark Brooks

Joel Harris

Hmmm... I might like to be in on this. I have no idea who these guys are though, and would need some kind of color guide (only for outfit and hair, really)....and need to know when deadline is, as I'm loaded with color work.

Joel, if you want some color schemes, here's the spawn toys of the people

top right - Raiden(http://www.toysnjoys.com/mcfarlane/raiden.jpg)
top left - revolver ocelot(http://www.toysnjoys.com/mcfarlane/ocelot.jpg)
bottom middle - solid snake(http://www.toysnjoys.com/mcfarlane/solidsnake.jpg)

kinda small pictures sorry, but knowing the names and the game(metal gear solid 2) should let you find plenty of pictures if you need anymore

Joel Harris

11-15-2002, 01:47 PM

Thanks very much, Spyders! Ok, I'm in... is there an inked version of this pic anywhere? Eh, whatever. I'm game. ;)

Yeah me too... afterall this is a bigger and more detailed drawing than the Sam Liu's one.
Oh.. just for curiosity.. did anyone say anything to Sam Liu (or his site) about that color-off..?. I guess it would be neat.

Ra Havok

11-17-2002, 03:55 AM

BabyC -> The competitioner in me says "Please, do join! We'll get real cosy in the arena! ;dvl;" , while the realist in me says "if you wanna stand a chance, DON't let him enter!"

j/k

It would be rad if you joined in. :)

I've posted up my colors on ORB, got a lot of replies but not from
sam, and that's not sam ~~.. maybe something happened to him ¿
Or he's just to bussy with exalted.

btw. no time probs here.. I got buttloads of time since I'm
dropping out of ICT. I'm gonna do Illustration, but it's to bad
I can only start doing that september next year ~~

So... when is the deadline, I'm probably a MAYBE on this one.

I'll ante up. It'll be a good learnin' exp.

spyders17

11-18-2002, 01:37 PM

deadline's november 28, right?

that's a bunch of time to do this, not an overly huge pic

Hybrid

11-20-2002, 01:30 PM

Well, I'm done, I guess.
Instead of sittin' on it for a week,
I'll post up early.

I had to reduce it due to image size
restrictions on my host.

Yo guys, I'm stoked that you decided to use my pic for the contest! Really looking forward to seeing what you guys produce. I've seen a few of the finished/work in progress pieces and I think it's safe to say that this is going to be one dope competition.

Oh and joel.. that rocks.. I just really dont get the green lighting.. and I dont like it much. The rest is full amazing!

Damian

11-22-2002, 01:13 AM

Joel!! Dude!! friggin' awesome colorscheme, man, totally different then wha I would've come up with, but great sh!t nevertheless!

c'mon, c'mon, I wanna see the rest of y'all!!:p

Joel Harris

11-22-2002, 05:23 AM

Thanks, guys.... to be honest? I hate the green too, but I tried every other color imaginable... and they all sucked too. :p Red looked too harsh.... blue blended in with the bg too much, purple just looked ugly (though I might go with that if I could change it...), etc, etc.

Your colors feel the most like the real game colors. My only beef is that the colors are layed out a bit sloppy.Other then that I just might vote for yours. Your colors have the best feeling to them so far.

Hey! I was coloring mine but photoshop stopped responding! .... god , was i sad , I did alot ... I'm going to try to push my anguish aside and re-color every thing I had ... 'never joined a color off before, I don't want to back out now.

Damian

11-27-2002, 01:33 AM

I'm going with this..

I could start a poll now, but I'm not sure if war is gonna finish up his entry.. so uh.. we'll wait some more I guess.

11-28-2002, 06:08 PM

oh yeah, by the way dan, from seeing your coloring work in the dbz tourny, than in the last color-off, something tells me you didn't really try seeing how it looks like you used only one color. c'mon, you couldn't have put much time into that.

babycakes

11-28-2002, 11:09 PM

I didn't get a chance to fix all those problems that you guys mentioned...

And exactly HOW LONg are we going to wait for Warlocks?

No offense to the guy, but he might as well have completely forgotten about this.

IMO the fairest thing to do now is to put up the poll, and include his name in it. He then can later post his coloring.
