I finally got around to start colouring! I was really looking forward to this part because now the whole comic project starts to look “real”. As in: it’s really happening!
I decided to go with a technique used by many comic artists. Using Photoshop I have one layer for the line art so that I don’t mess it up accidentally. I use another layer for the “flats”. The flat layer contains just the basic colours that I want to use but they don’t have to match a 100% . With another layer on top I can adjust the colours and make them match, change colours to my liking or change the overall tone to create atmosphere. That’s also when the magic with shadows and light happens.
I really love the way flat layers and the finished layers look so different and how the flat layer is just an idea of the final look.
Here’s an example for you to see! More coming soon (:
Too Much Drama 
Good grief i wish i could do this. Awesome job! Reminds me a bit of liechtenstein
Thank you! It kind of does, you’re right. But it won’t look like Lichtenstein once it’s fully colored.
And dots and a textbulb but even without. I so love lichtenstein. Even have liechtenstein allstars
He’s a great artist! I have one of his pictures on my wall (not the original obviously).
Thanks for telling us how you colour your pictures Roxanne. It must take a lot of work to create a comic :D <3
It absolutely is! I’ve been working on it for the past 3 months. But it’s worth the work!
It’ll be great to see the end result :D
