Thats some awesome coloring there ^...it's got a very old school classic look to it...


Also loving Larry's work...

 

[The Baron]

The 'old-school' look is exactly that. The Battle comics were B&W with coloured covers and centre pages. There was no way for me to remove the original colours for the project without degrading the scans, sadly.

Some of the colourists try to blend with the original style, others don't. Check out the first two chapters of Venom of Cobra, coloured by Joe Harris, to see what I mean: http://bloodforthebaron.com/comics/colouring/053/index.html

I really glad you guys are enjoying this so much! there's only two chapters left of this epic strip.

Would anybody be interested in doing some colouring?

Would anybody be interested in doing some colouring?

Ordinarily I'd volunteer straightaway, but lately real life has been extremely hectic (wife and 2 small kids, one of whom is recovering from cancer).

 

[The Baron]

Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that, man. Here's wishing for a speedy recovery.

 

[Monkeywrench]

Another great one! I'm sad that the project is almost over

 

[Fled74]

Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that, man. Here's wishing for a speedy recovery.

Thanks man. It's cool, she's doing very well.

Like MW said, I too am sad that this epic comic is drawing to a close.

 

[The Baron]

Not to worry fellas, we have PLENTY more strips to colour yet.
