Fairchild

[SeanE]

I was just fiddling around trying to decide on what picture to do next, when I found this one stashed away on the hard drive... well a few practise strokes and shadings and 2.5 hours later I end up finishing it...!

Apparently Fairchild is meant to be a redhead...? - Well I wouldn't know coz I don't actually *read* comic books... I just colour stuff. Besides, it's a girl perogitive to change her hair colour whenever she wants isn't it?!

If anyone knows of a way to overpaint the hair to make it red - without my having to go back and do it from scratch - then fire away! The best I can make it is a pale pink mucking around with layer modes and overpaints in a new layer.

Google image search for "Fairchild" brings up hits right away. Your not reading comics isn't really an excuse.

It's good you fixed the chin in the second pic, i didn't understand why it was blue. Background was better in the first one, the angle was better, looked like light.

Both pictures look really nice in my opinion, hope to see more.

Hey, for the blonde/redhead debate:
I'd buy her a drink either way.

Har har.

Anyway, the coloring is pretty slick. No crits from here.

ok ok - the errors in her hair and clothes were bugging the heck outa me so here's the re-re-hashed version with the hair and legs re done from scratch and the colours adjusted in the clothes! *curse you F!nch!!*
