Oh wow! That is amazing!

I love the idea of the color me comm. Though (unfortunately) there is no way I'd ever be able to colour in someone else's work. I think colouring/shading requires an artists eye as much as the the line art. I mean, look at the amazing colouring job you've done here!!!

It's wonderful to see the collaboration though. Awesome idea.:D

Thank you! quickreaver's lines were so wonderful to work with :)

Coloring other people's art is good practice, though; you don't have to post it :) You also don 't have to create a masterpiece or anything--the comm is meant to be fun :) And we have other things, like crossword puzzles and word finds, and hopefully more stuff like that soon :)

Oh my god, this is heartbreaking.

I know, her lines just about killed me. Thank you!

oooh pretty!
I loved the original of this so much, but this variant is excellent : D I especially love the shades of pink and red- it gives it this feeling of dusk.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-13 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you very much! The original was so lovely, I just had to have it, haha.

[identity profile] verucasalt123.livejournal.com 2013-08-13 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
This is really great - the colors seem muted but the shades are so warm, it matches the feeling of the drawing perfectly.

Thank you very much!

This is beautiful! *__*

Thank you :) The lines were just gorgeous to work with.

[identity profile] deansdirtybb.livejournal.com 2013-08-13 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Her lines and your colors and shading are the best combination I could even imagine. So gorgeous, the emotion just bleeds out of this...I don't have words, just feels.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you so much!

[identity profile] strgazr04.livejournal.com 2013-08-13 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Simply gorgeous. Now I wish there was a fic to this.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks :) Now I do too!

[identity profile] quickreaver.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
The values and colors here are AMAZING. It's ridiculous fun to see this colored differently, and so boldly! Your treatment really exaggerates the mood and is simply perfect for it. (I'm working on one of yours, too, but it's a rougher one so I'm inking first. Trying really hard to keep your style, though!)

Such an awesome idea for a comm, BB. And such an awesome color job. AWE to the SOME.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad you like what I did with it~ I shaded with green, because GREEN, man. I had to. I don't know if I've ever used this color palette, but I'm so glad I did. It was crazy fun. Your lines are so dreamy.

*claps* Yay, I'm glad you're working on one! No need to keep my style; do what feels right :) I've collab'ed with another artists a few times, where we passed a piece back and forth like, rough sketch->lines->base colors & palette->shading, and we used our own style for each pass. It was neat :)

Thank you!

Seriously beautiful coloring. Between Quickreaver's amazing art and your coloring/shading skills. this is a collaboration of beauty.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you char! :)

[identity profile] cassiopeia7.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
Beautiful! Though the linework is quite obviously [livejournal.com profile] quickreaver's, your dramatic shading gives the piece an entirely different feel. Brava!! \o/

Thank you :)

Lovely! I especially like the troubled lines on Dean's forehead and the stark lighting.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! I love how quickreaver rumpled his forehead, and I had so much fun coloring it :)

[identity profile] chomaisky.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
I so love the dramatic color contrast here!

Thank you! I love playing with light :)

<3 <3 <3 to both of you. Amazing talent all around... the emotion here. This is everything I love about Sam and Dean in one picture.

:)

i remember this pic! well, i remember [livejournal.com profile] quickreaver's version.... i love how you colored it - it's kind of heavy but in a good, emotionally-fraught kind of way.

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks so much! Yeah, I didn't think a bright color palette would do this one justice :)

[identity profile] rince1wind.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
Golly, that's nice!

Thank you!

Niiiice... I like how you chose to put Dean mostly in shadow, BB, and yeah, Sammy's crinkly emo hair is lovely. QR's Sam is so lean and angular. Lovely collaboration!

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! Ahh, I love her Sam, and his emo hair. Coloring her Sam's hair was absolutely dreamy.

[identity profile] elsecarlass.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 07:33 am (UTC)(link)
Beautiful. :)

Thank you!

Ahhh that's awesome, both lineart and coloring. Intense and emotional <3

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks so much! quickreaver's lineart was so much fun to work with.

[identity profile] kinkajou.livejournal.com 2013-08-14 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
So beautiful! <3 <3 <3 And I agree, Sam's hair is awesome, and I also love the way his shirt falls off his shoulder <3 <3 <3 And Dean's face! <3 <3 <3 And the coloring makes it even more sad and dramatic, it is so awesome! <3 <3 <3 (sorry for overuse of weirdo emoticon)

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
haha, it's ok, I emoticon all over the place.

Thank you! The lineart was just gorgeous, and I loved the same things about it that you do :)

[identity profile] serendip50.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I commend the lenear work and the colour insertion really enhances the whole feel of the image. It's amazingly well crafted with a desolate and altogether touching comforting appeal. The tender reflection of brotherly affection/love is stunning. Very lovely:).

[identity profile] badbastion.livejournal.com 2013-08-16 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you! quickreaver's lines were so enjoyable to color, and I'm glad you like m y coloring job :)
