Default Training my coloring.

Hey there,

I've recently been practicing on coloring art using Photoshop. This is quite hard and I wish to train some more.

I am in need of material that I can color, I'm not that good of a drawer myself. What I offer is that if you have any sketches laying around somewhere, I will color them, free of charge.

Examples of my work:
[Sunny hills]
[Desert planet]

Please post in this topic with the following:
Code:
Your own (forum) name: 
The drawing you want colored: 
Color palette:
Any other notes:
A couple of things though:

-Even if I accept to color something, I can cancel it at any time for any reason.

-I might be unable to color something, I will tell you then. I might return a half-complete drawing or nothing at all, depending on how I like it.

-Please supply the colors you want. Else, I will use my imagination. You do not want me using my imagination.

And go.

Hello, you can try coloring a commission of mine that I had done some time ago.

Your own (forum) name: Chicken Of The Seas

The drawing you want colored: http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/3709/dwqs9j.jpg
Color palette: Their colors are mainly ivory, whiteish, etc. Heres screenshots of the original colors: http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/4024/sueaside.png http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/6446/mercprofiles.jpg

Any other notes: Nada

Complexity(1-10, the higher the number, the more detailed it will be, but the higher the chance of me not being able to do it): 9 i suppose, but I don't really mind about the complexity as much, so between 4-10?

However I'm not sure if you'd be able to do it due to the sketch style of the art. If it was lineart it'd be soo much easier.

Thanks. If you're unable to do it np, I can see how it could be difficult.

I think the hardest thing will be the hair. It's really hard to do correctly. I started with the face because it'll be a thing people will focus a lot on and needs to be really detailed and well-shaded.

I'll try to update the picture every day(Only if I have worked on it that day) so you can see its progress. If you have any comment - or if you plainly don't like a particular color/effect - please voice it.

Hello,
I like to draw on paper with pencil, and sometimes when I have time I ink them.
Here is some of my drawings, you choose which one is the easier to try to colour.


^^Lots to colour here.



^^This should be easy.




^^This last one is very big I did it for a dear friend, as you can see I had to reduce it and cut the paper to be able to scan it, but it's not inked.

If you do not like any of them it's okay, thanks for your time tho.
