MEh i dont know what to say, well this is probably my 1st coloring in night, i was going to make everything reflect from the moon light and it think it came out pretty well.

It took me more than 2 hours.

Please i need comments, btw this is the 3rd version with gaussian blur, the 3rd version was the original but i played with a few options to get V1 and 2

And damn i just downloaded all the OSDs of Naruto and it helped me a lot.


V1


V2 sorry about the hilt i dont have time right now to color it


V3 which i totally dont like

v1 is the better one, although the sky looks better in v2.
as for improvement, you need more shadows and contrast, and i also think they are all slightly too warm.

yea i also agree that V1 is the best, well the different between V1 and V2 is because V1 is set on Color Burn on low opacity and V2 on Screen i think, and V3 was the original which i didnt like when i tryed gaussian blur.

Well yea i know they are kinda too warm for a dark image, well after all this is probaly my 1st dark coloring.

But anyway thanks for the cnc it means a lot if an experianced artist comments here :)

BAN_KAI, today you assured me that you have lots of potential. Before looking at your previous colourings, it seemed like you had slow progress and prosperity with getting better at colouring but this picture has done your catalogue of pictures you have done justice.

First thing that catches my eyes with all of them is that it doesn't look as if the lineart has been put on, it looks like you have worked around it. The lineart in this photo actually compliments this photo due to it's dark atmosphere.

The shading was done very good on all versions, but remember that the moon is behind kakashi, so there won't be that many light parts if you know what I mean. Apart from that everything else is great, and I hope you can be consistent with this.

Great stuff!

excellent work you have there. congrats ..
i also think v1 is the best but maybe you could do it some where between v1 and v2
because you have more brightness in v2(where you have used screen) but you have lost some black-leveling and contrast for that reason . if you keep the highlights as bright as v2(or a little dimmer) and re-level blacks and midtones and add a little more contrast , imo it would look as dark as v1 and as clear as v2
i hope i could explain what i mean because normally i just do photography editting ,graphics are out of my league

heheh if it isnt my number 1 commenter :) i am really glad you like it, well about the slow proggres , i can really make stuff like this allways but its all about my will, usually i dont listen to music while coloring and i dont get my inspiration, when doing this work i downloaded all of the Naruto original sountracks and it helped me a lot.
I can color a lot better if i ennjoy it and dont lose the will cause just look at my PC chair :D

About the Moon an the lights i was aiming to get a refflective look cause i wanted for the Roof to reflect the moon light and i added a few clouds to block the moon so it would shine on a few kakashi parts xD

About the lines i dont think they are so important to be left out, i could easily remove it but i dont know why.

Thanks bro you have allways given my a lot of usefull comments but i have been a dick for nit listening you. :tem

THank you very much , well i dont have so much knowledge with tone leveling like some photographs do so i didnt really experiment with highlight, those 3 versions are all on the same Layer so it would be difficult to edit them.
