[God Fire Convoy]

I'm proposing a new color-off for da mecha fans.

Transformer color-off of Mark Brooks' drawing of G1 Scourge

Pencils by Mark Brooks
Inks by Ragelion

[danimation2001]

I'll take up on this, but I think you should set the deadline for 3 weeks. That should give me and anyone else time to make this sucker really nice. :D

[God Fire Convoy]

sounds fine to me :D

[God Fire Convoy]

*bumps this up*

any other takers?

[danimation2001]

do you have any references to this character?

[psico]

Yeha.. I need practice in the mecha thing also....
any reference for the colors?!

[God Fire Convoy]

i'll get ya some this evening. skool computers suck :|

[danimation2001]

me too

but its all in good fun right? :D


btw, the deadline will be Christmas Eve. Figure itd be some nice presents for Mark Brooks [pencils] and Ragelion [inks] :D

[MiJKa]

Right. Well, now that someone's found me color references, I'mma color this one too. Been wanting to for a bit now :) So, uhm, I guess I'm in.

Heya dan, Ico :) *waves*

[psico]

Heys Mijka man! Welcome to PJ!
Now I REALLY know Iwill get my ass kicked... :D

[nate lovett]

i'll think i'll take a crack at this as well. i too need more practice.:D

[Meta-Knight]

I know I shall get my ass demolished,but I wanna try my new CG style on something good,I'm in ^^;;

[MiJKa]

Psico has officially jumped to a conclusion. Dude...this is metal we're talking about here. I do NOT specialise in this stuff :P And I can't cel-shade to save my sorry, huge, derrier :P But hey, I wanna color it ;)

[MiJKa]

So, uhmmmm, since this is the first time I've done this, anyone wanna tell me exactly how this works? Suppose I've got my piece done, ok? Right. And, let's say, I post it on dA, just because it's done. Doesn't really bother me that dan and Ico will see it, evne though I'm not tossing the link at the rest of you guys. dan's gonna whip my sorry derrier anyway, and Ico's prolly going psycho on it colorwise anyway.

Anyhow, the point is, how do I go about it. Do I give the link to GFC? Or what? Or do I just post it here. Which seems wrong, according to the Forum posts in the arena. Help, anyone? :(

[psico]

Well.. you can post the link.. or the picture here... is up to you if you want to show the others or not. if not.. you PM (private message) GFC with the link.
To post the image here (I will do it as soon as I finish mine) you go to yhe picture on DA click to view the full sixe and clieck with the right button to get the image address (URL)... then you post it here if you want. Yeah.. thats pretty much it.

Hehe... yeah.. I'm going to go all psycho! well.. or not.. :D

[nate lovett]

unfortunately i'm going to have to drop outta this one, i just don't have the time.:(

[MiJKa]

Right. Well...I think I wanna touch up a few more details, in retrospect, but it's good to know :) I may post the partially completed version on dA anyway :P

[God Fire Convoy]

just go ahead and PM the pics to me. Its ok if its already uploaded to Deviant cuz mine is already up there too :D

thanks and good luck guys!

[Meta-Knight]

XD be happy when you see this,guys,for now you know you shall whip my ass XD...well,I might do something more with it if I ever learn how,I'm still pretty new to photoshop X.x

[psico]

hey.. when is the deadline?!.. just for the records..

[MiJKa]

Well, the more I look at it, the more I want to go back and touch some stuff up. It's on my dA page, though. http://mijka.deviantart.com

Ico saw it allready.

I think, at the very least, some elements need to be smoother out a bit... :(

[Meta-Knight]

http://images.deviantart.com/large/indyart/comics/Brooks-Ragelion-Scourge_ver2.jpg

Man I suck with Robots...well,that's actually my first try on one O.o I might add some more stuff to it,tho,depending

[MiJKa]

Actually that color scheme is a lot closer to the cartoon's original than mine or dan's I think :P Anyway, I PMed GFC with my final entry. Besides, I think I posted it in the digital color forum too :P

[psico]

I may have to give up on this color-off..
I got the flats done, but with my dad on the hospital I have no time here at home. I just came here to take a break and a bath.
Anyway.. I might submit only the flats if I dont get it done by the deadline.
Sorry you all..
But, I was going to have my ass kicked anyway....:D

[MiJKa]

damn...hope he gets well soon bud. Didn't know he was even in there. Best wishes and whatnot, eh?

[Meta-Knight]

sorry to hear that,psico,I was looking forward to see what you could do with this :D ^^;;oh well,just to note,in case you guys didn't know the pic I posted is my final,I don't have time to do anything else with it ^^;;

[God Fire Convoy]

[psico]

bad thing I'm out... dad still at the hospital.. oh well.
Thanks Mijka, man. Everything will be well...
Anyway, as soon as the hospital crazyness stops, I will finish mine anyway.
Hope you all have a merry christmas everyone... or at least a nice party or something.

[MiJKa]
