Just like to say that after looking at a lot of Mignola's stuff I can see how much the two of you's styles have in common
Great work!

Thanks for the compliment Elliot , although of late I've tried to view other art styles, as rather a lot of new artists have been copying Mignola's work

Hey Roy
I got your e-mail, great colouring, looks a lot better than I thought
We definitely gotta do more collabs
I replied to it by e-mail, so let me know if this one worked unlike the last one lol
If there is one from me it should be from my btinternet.com adress
Peace

Hey Elliot
I got your emails, must of used a computer exorcist this time
Glad you liked my colouring job, I was thinking that maybe you upload the version without the colourized line work, and I'll use that one on my page or vice versa, plus we leave a link to each others versions
Anyway, let me know what you think.

Yo Roy
Ah good, my crucifix image created from binary must've killed my ghost in the machine lol
Sure! So I'll upload the one with the black lines and you'll upload the one with colourined lines and we leave links to each other's picture?
Sounds good to for
I was also thinking that if you want to colour a picture I'll do as I did last time with no shading lines and send it to you to colour and then I can add the shading when I'm gonna upload it and for when I colour it
wbsn

Yo Yo Elliot
Yeah sure, sounds like a good plan, basically draw the illos as line art
As I've previously stated, I'm still learning the ropes in Photoshop, it took me ages to find out how to colourize the line work, as for the life of me I couldn't find a tutorial on it until I found the appropriate wording or phrase, which was "colour holds/knockouts"
I was like "WHAT THE F-? KNOCKOUTS!" was the person blind drunk when they came up with that art term lol

Sure
Ah right, just colour the ones you feel you like enough to stick with em lol
Lol That's some weird term...

Hey Roy
Just to let you know, in the pick you're colouring Wolverine's sword is red, nt usual steel/grey as it's a special sword. Just letting you know incase you didn't know.
If you want any colour notes just ask and I'll e-mail you em

pypedreams In reply to Aspiring-Mangaka [2009-05-12 00:41:12 +0000 UTC]
Thanks Elliot, I'll incorporate your colour advice into the illo
Who'd of thought Wolverine would need a special sword, hasn't he got enough pointy objects to stab other mutants with

Aspiring-Mangaka In reply to pypedreams [2009-05-12 07:09:57 +0000 UTC]
Sure
Ah but this sword is "Forged from his instinctal esssence and fury" by this magician dude, and it can negate a healing factor eg. a cut from this sword will heal normally

Oh silly me, I stand corrected sir, a mutant instinct fury healing sword it is then

Aspiring-Mangaka In reply to pypedreams [2009-05-12 19:54:33 +0000 UTC]
Lol
It's a pretty cool sword, Wolverine's got a scar on his chest now from it coz Cap used it to stop him without knowing. Daken's after it now to bond it to his claws so he has a way of killing either Wolverine or a gu called Romulus (not quite sure which at the moment...)
Read an good comics recently or any good films?

pypedreams In reply to Aspiring-Mangaka [2009-05-12 22:30:00 +0000 UTC]
No good films as yet, although I should be going to watch the new Star Trek movie this weekend, all the reviews seem very positive
Oh, when you get the chance check out a new movie called Push, it stars Chris Evans of Human Torch fame & Dakota Fanning, it takes place motley in China and has some really cool concept ideas, here's hoping they make a sequel

Aspiring-Mangaka In reply to pypedreams [2009-05-13 14:08:58 +0000 UTC]
Ah right, I might see that too
Oh yeah, I was gonna see that! I'll check it out
It's about people with telekenisis or something similar isn't it?

pypedreams In reply to Aspiring-Mangaka [2009-05-14 00:58:00 +0000 UTC]
Yes, all the key characters in Push have different telekinetic powers, it was made on a modest budget, but the script and direction is really good, although while watching the film I did think it would've worked rather better as a TV show

Aspiring-Mangaka In reply to pypedreams [2009-05-14 11:00:20 +0000 UTC]
Ah right, sounds good
Bit like Heroes then? If you don't watch it, you should get series one and see what you think of it, it's a great new take on the super hero genre I say.
Btw, I replied to your e-mail, but I dunno if it worked (what with the problems last time lol) so can you let me know if it's there or not, because I might need to try and fix it lol
Peace
