Fun Colouring

So, the ever-enjoyable Lar de Souza posted this little gem in his Tumblr  -

- and I thought I'd see what I can do with colouring it.

Normally I ask an artist's permission before I'd do something like this, but I know Lar a little bit and he loves art, and people's various takes on it, so I'm fairly certain he'd be okay with this. 

I'm trying to find B&W stuff from Skottie Young, because I love his art style, but either his coloured stuff is already coloured, or his B&W stuff is pretty perfect by itself. He doesn't send out hi-res files [understandable], but at least he's okay'd me to find stuff and go nuts on it. 

King's Watch test pages

Below are some test-pages [originally b&w, coloured by me] put out by Mr. Nate Cosby [ Tumblr & Twitter], who is looking for colourists.

A newspaper/media building while the sky is falling, The Phantom in the jungle, and some Flash Gordon - Flash is a work in progress, the flats are done.

I worked on the first page Monday to Friday after my "regular day-job", got The Phantom done Saturday evening after running errands all day and started on Flash's page, which is now flatted and ready for "prettying up".

I had to refer to the script a few times, and was glad to see that my gut was right on a couple of occasions, but keep kicking / reminding myself to read the script first, then jump into the colours.
Lesson learned? Always read the script!
Second lesson learned? Trust your gut - but read the script!!
