How is this? After having my little meltdown yesterday about how tedious comics are becoming, I decided to finish this picture using my older method of coloring. No gradients, just ordinary coloring. I think this one came out okay, but its still feels reall unbalanced, messy, kind dirty, and I still had the problem of my PSD file getting so huge towards the end that I basically just had to pick a stopping point when Photoshop stopped working. I dunno. I'm going to try and make one more image in this style and see how it goes.

Fluidity is definitely a thing I worry about. Gradients offer a huge advantage in terms of fluidity because I can apply colors while only needing to worry about values. The problem is that such a method lacks depth, and the spontaneity that comes with just painting. I'm really on the fence about this issue.

okay. honestly. the shading looks a little less fluid, other than that it still looks excellent, because it is still rather clean.

From my perspective, this looks wonderful. :)

thanks. I'm emialing you the high rez.

You did an awesome job with this, colors look great too. Not sure what you feel to be unbalanced, but from a viewers perspective it looks perfect.

I like it, though if you do anything FF related try Tifa, and Aeris and for shits/giggles if you want cloud in their slut dresses for Don Corneo.

I hate Lightning but kind of like seeing her getting choke-fucked.

Thanks Ace. I never played it. The last FF game I really played was X-2. I'm still not happy with where my style is at on so many levels. I have no understanding of depth or perceptive, my lineart is messy, and my coloring is random. I think making comics has become painful because I'm more aware of my shortcomings for a longer period of time when I'm making when, whereas I can kind of shrug it off when making a character or an image or whatever.

Well of course it's dirty, it's sex :p<br>But seriously even when you think you didn't do a good job we all think it looks great.

I like how it looks from my mortal eyes, Glad to read you better, pretty cool pic if you ask me. FF 13 may not be the best, but lightning is pretty hot ^^
